A MUM-OF-TWO has had her loose skin removed after losing a whopping 250lbs. Crystal from Texas, USA was once 420lbs and struggling with her health. She told Truly: “I kind of became a little comedian to try to outweigh the fact that I was insecure about how I looked. I couldn’t go up a few steps without being out of air. People would tell me that I wasn’t attractive, that I was lazy.” After seeing a doctor, they recommended gastric bypass surgery to Crystal. Unfortunately after the surgery, Crystal’s bad habits meant the weight came piling back. She said: "I don’t think a lot of people understand that if you don’t change those bad habits, you can still revert back and go back to where you were prior. I was a new mum, and my marriage failed. My weight went right back. I felt like a failure, I didn’t feel sexy, I didn’t feel happy. I felt depressed. In my mind, I saw the healthiest version myself - and I chased that." Crystal began exercising and went on a strict keto diet - altogether she has lost 250lbs. Due to the amount of weight Crystal lost, she was left with a huge amount of excess skin all over her body. At the beginning of 2021, she had a lower body lift and an arm lift. She said: “I feel like I can show a side of me that I’ve never shown before."
