I weighed about 145 when I had my TT and BL/BR 11 weeks ago, I now weigh 130. It jump started my weight loss again. The PS took off about 7lbs of skin, but the other 8lbs just came off. I went from a size 7/8 before PS to a size 3 now. I feel like a new person. Good Luck.

On the day of my tt, I weighed in at 140. After a month, I'd lost another 15 pounds and hit my goal weight. I've not lost anymore weight (and don't need to). I found that the antiobiotics (Cipro) they had me on for 3 weeks for the tt caused me to have NO appetite so that probably contributed to my weight loss.
