How long it took you please and what was your excess skin like?

About 6-9 months but I had surgery. Skin was ok at the time but I have since lost more and I do have some excess skin now- nothing major, I don’t like it but I’m 100 times healthier, can run marathons, walk for miles, live life! So a bit of excess skin that is hidden under my trousers and t shirt is no problem. It’s not so bad that I chafe or anything.
Having excess skin is not a reason to not lose weight- if I had stayed the same weight I would probably be dead- I had no quality of life. At the time I would have argued different but life now is like living in colour compared to watching it pass when I was well over 20 stone.
