That awkward moment when there is a big Mac ad before this video

Since Matt received more donation than he needed, some of that money could help Brian with surgery.

He should not be embarrassed or ashamed of this excess skin. It is his trophy of the condition and lifestyle he overcame and modified! He looks like a completely different (and younger) person now!

People make fun of him. However if they had the same condition they would be too afraid to show it. This is a very, very brave man who needs to be awarded.

Diet and exercise? Whatta revolutionary idea.

Doesn't matter whether you lose by surgery or by exercise & diet...if your were once 600lbs. you will have excess skin & NO AMOUNT of exercise is going to tighten you up. Surgery will remove the skin. Hawaii lost a great musician & entertainer when "Israel 'IZ' Kamakawiwo`ole" died. "IZ" was over 600lbs. He died overweight. I can NOT cut this man down for his journey...I WILL NOT cut him down!!!! If he wants to use the social media in accomplishing his goal...then SO BE IT!!! Good Luck & God Bless!!!

I love that this man changed his lifestyle for the better and is now a inspiration for others.It just shows that hard work pays off.That's why I don't feel sorry for the people on my 600 pound life when they blame everybody else but themselves for the situation that they're in.

excess skin isn't something to be ashamed of, it's something to be proud of

[chrismarshall]

I wouldn't judge him at all because everyone is unique in their one ways.

[Boo-spmy]

He is so inspiring! Keep doing what ur doing

[tonephoenix]

Dude your good bro, don't be ashamed, you did a lot that other people have, its a good example

[honkeykong]

He may very well represent *the next leap in human evolution.* Perhaps the excess skin will give him the ability to Glide in the same way that Flying Squirrels have extra membrane to soar between trees.

Guys if you are severely obese incorporate as much muscle training as possible and do not lose weight too fast. It's better if it takes twice as long you will make that back in avoid surgery.

In the UK his surgery would be done for nothing - free at the point of need.

Question what do you do with excess skin like how do it go away or does it go away at all?

[jasminemotta]

I'm 13 in 7th grade and I only weigh 63.3 pounds

He deserves the money because of his bravery

[katlee]

How can he get rid of the excess skin??

[AlwaysDazed]

It's a very tough thing to go through, I never weighed that much but I use to weigh roughly 320lbs. Through speed and and going bulimic for roughly 8 months, I went from 320 to 205. One of the biggest mistakes I had made, while I did slim down i had skin left over. However, I found boxing, after over 4 years I hardly have any skin left, a little on the sides but nothing I ain't even sweating. Mine was not even remotely as bad as his so I do believe he will need surgery. But yes it is possible to transform your body with real training. Major kudos to him though, this is the hardest thing someone will have to do in their life ( aside from burying loved ones)

Once your body creates a fat cell, it is permanent, only it can be made smaller or larger. Regardless of how you lose the weight, slowly with diet and exercise or quickly with surgery, the excess skin will still be there.
