Question, does insurance help cover the cost of this?
UberDeek
1/5/19 11:43am
Yes they absolutely will help

IMO, surgery needs to be used more.

Yes, because the statistics show it's worth it to the insurance companies to

Good work! Did you have any excess skin issues?
Jericho
1/5/19 11:53am
Yes and the reason I'm trying to cut down to below 200 is to get to a BMI where insurance will help pay for skin removal
monkeycowboy
1/5/19 11:55am
BMI May be the most stupid metric created. Tells you nothing.

It tells you quite a bit for 80%+ of people.

I agree. I just don’t agree that it’s an end all be all like some treat it.

I got a little carried away eith “tells you nothing” but i think its stupid.

1/5/19 1:08pm
Yes and no. I look at it like PER or +/-. It can tell you some stuff but I don't think it should be the only stat nor

Target weight for skin surgery. End goal is around 185. Part of what's taken me so long is I discovered powerlifting
monkeycowboy

I was shocked in the pics that your skin looks as good as it does. The benefits of losing the weight over a 4 yr

So you workout in the morning and burn 2500 calories before even eating? How many calories a day do you aim for?
cruiserhead
1/5/19 3:28pm
My target is to burn 3400. I quite often burn between 3700 and 4000 and sometimes more. I work a desk job.
