Smaller...Better Me

Donation protected

In April 2010, I was was told I was diabetic, and that if I wanted to live a healthy life I would have to change, and change fast. With barely enough information about diabetes, or how to start this change, I went home scared and confused, but determined. Through diet and exercise only, no surgeries, I lost 100 lbs in the first 10 months, and now 5 years later, I'm down a total of 150 lbs with more to go. In this crazy journey I have changed so much. I grew as a person, and found that it's been the hardest, and also most rewarding thing that I have ever done, and I have never stopped trying. Now I'm stuck in a shell of my old self. My skin pulls, hangs and it hurts when I try to push myself to go futher. So, I'm asking for help to lose the old me, and make the new me a REALITY.
I had a consultation with the doctor today, and he recommended that I have a procedure called a Belt Lipectomy to remove all my excess skin from the amount of weight that I have lost.  This is a very costly procedure that, unfortunately, insurance does not cover, nor help with at all.  Any and all help would be so greatly appreciated.  The change in your pocket could help change my life.
