my600lblife susan’s excess skin
Tonight’s episode of My600Lb Life: Where Are They Now? documents Susan's weight loss journey.
Susan has come on leaps and bounds since her weight loss surgery.
As Popdust previously reported, Susan has struggled with her weight since she was a small child—but things took a turn for the worse following a violent altercation with her father, when she was 17.
Before surgery, she was unable to even walk around the supermarket without sitting down every couple of minutes.
But now, she is able to walk for two miles plus without a problem.
She is also using a friend’s pool to swim and exercise every day.
Susan explains that her doctor wants her to get her weight below 300Lb before he will perform surgery to remove all the excess skin that has formed following her drastic weight loss.
So, she is working hard to reach that goal.
Susan is desperate for the surgery, as the weight of all the skin is causing her serious back pain.
“I don’t think I can live a normal life without the surgery,” she admits.
“I know it sounds kinda silly, but the first thing I am going to do, once the skin is removed, is that I am going to get a pair of jeans.
“Because I haven’t worn a pair of jeans since high school.”
Now, how bad can the excess skin problem be?
Well, brace yourselves, because Susan shows us exactly how horrific it can be—and it is truly not for the faint of heart.
“This is lymphedema,” she explains, as she lifts the large roll of skin. “It’s really heavy and pulls on my whole body.
“And then also, I have this hidden piece of lymphedema hidden underneath, that gets really bothersome.
“This whole belly just needs to go. Having it gone will be like being set free from prison.
“I just hope I’ve lost enough weight when I see the doctor, that we can just get this done.”
