Hi I'm Suzanne and I am from England and I am new to this forum and I am not sure if there is anyone here that can help me. I have been following sw for 15 months and I have lost 7 1/2 stone so far. I am now left with a lot of excess skin.
1. Does anyone know where/how I can find out my percentage body fat? As I feel my weight and bmi will be being affected by the weight of this skin.
2. Does anyone have any experience of trying to get surgery on the nhs to remove excess skin?
I am a little discouraged at the moment cos despite my weight loss the rolls of skin are making me more unhappy about my body than the excess weight did. I do realise that the weight loss has had profound health benefits but am feeling depressed at the thought of living with these spare tyres.
Thanks in advance for any information.
