Excess skin removal, from 32st9/207kg - 15st1/96kg

Aim

I'm desperate to get enough money to have a full body sculpt/contouring procedue but any funds towards even an abdominoplasty would be great

Hi All, m name is Mark Stephens, I'm originally from Jersey in the Channel Islands, my family and I moved to the mainland (UK) to reunite the family with my sister and for family health reasons in late October 2019. I was having a hard time adjusting and quickly found myself on my own, I landed on my feet being lucky enough to get an Airbnb with a now OF performer who's a former world champion and unfortuante olympic ice queen. During the covid lockdowns of 1 and 2 I went from bring 32st9lbs/207kg to about 15st1lbs/96kg due in no small part to the motivation of both this lady and my best friends in the UK and former neighbours C and K and their awesome pooch Oscar who I walked daily sometimes several times a day for miles and I worked out with a small 10kg dumbell in a garage or garden weather dependant obviously LOL.

I have maintained this weight now for over 2 years to prove that it wasn't about to be all put back on and that I thought would be enough... but no, the NHS (who are swamped and underpaid) have said that the full body sculpting/contouring procedure or even just the abdominoplasty are considered cosmetic procedures and they won't help. I've been lost and didn't know where to go or what to do until a suggestion hit me to try to crowd fund, to see if anyone else is in this posiion. PERSONAL DETAIL: I have a large belly apron and similar one around "my old chap" although because of all the walking my legs are bad I still have areas around the inside leg, I also have some large bingo wings but again tried my hardest to exercise whilst losing the weight to mitigate this but I guess at my age now 43 my skin has lost its elasticity, so now at the end of my tether, after a mental health breakdown that I'm still recovering from I will try to find myself again,  hopefully with the help of the wonderful people of the internet, be kind to each other we're all fighting battles you jut might not be able to see the war wounds/scars. Thanks for reading this, stay safe x
