But he told BBC Radio 5 Live's Victoria Derbyshire programme that he was not prepared for the amount of excess skin which would be left on his legs and stomach

He should have thought of that [u]before[/u] eating all the pies.

If he turns around fast does his skin stay facing the same way?

Bit of a life sentence though isnt it?

personnally I feel he has taken the health advice given by his doctor, he has also probably saved us a fortune in long term medical care by losing the weight. There have been side effects, they should help.

Its a far higher priority than tattoo removal and other self inflicted conditions that need cosmetic surgery.

Less of a life sentence than being as obese as he was.

Damn can't see the film 🙁

"not available in your territory"
He doesn't look so baggy skinned on the still picture at the beginning of the film (which I can see)

Has he been rejected for cosmetic surgery on the NHS?

I think you can probably do a lot with some ops to remove some of the excess skin.

Thats my point. I think he has a good case for receiving the op.

He could stand outside the burns unit selling it to the highest bidder.

Couldn't get the audio on the clip, so I missed the bit about him being refused the op. Since edited.

I agree he should get the op. Or use some bulldog clips.

I'd say he should have it, but then again theres a note on my medical record saying I can have cosmetic surgery to sort out my problems if I ever feel I need it. TBH I only remember if someone points it out.

I've just learnt to live with the bits that dont look right, but if its a (relatively sudden/recent) problem to him maybe its better he gets it sorted.
