[bandwagonize]

i'm usually not grossed out by anything, but i was eating gummi bears when i watched this... for some reason watching this video and eating gummi bears do not mix

[dalvaburatto]

I cant believe that was really you '-'

[jottamartins]

Of course I can only speak for my country, but in this cases of extreme weight lost this kind of surgery falls under the category of "reconstructive surgery" which is covered by most insurances and by the national medical system. The same criteria is also applied, lets say, to women that had breast cancer.

[saphiremommy]

WOW thats amazing and scary all at the same time :)

[joedude967]

i love those boobie things hahahha

@RMCKIE how was ur surgery?

[Lynseyisinlove]

You look like a new person! I'm so proud of you and I don't even know you :-) I too am trying to loose weight. My Dr. had told me that I need to drop at least 100lbs to be healthy and I'm proud to say that I went from 260 to my current weight of 225. I know it's not much but, it has been an up hill battle and it's not over yet. Thank you very much for being an inspiration for me and probably so many others out there -3

[lap0209]

type in "give me 4 week abs" in the search box and click on the video with hearts in the title to learn how to get a 6 pack in 4 weeks.

[9khamel]

@katizzled yeah but you certainly won't get fat over eating salade.. Most people are fat because of wrong eating habits. Can't argue with that

[GPazosL]

@TheDramaticsoul77 Who cares? Im here to learn about Bariatric Surgery, fuck David Smith and everyone around him.

[MrFutureSolution]

WOW, well if you're inspired now check out ways of getting there at FutureSolutionsToday (it wouldn't let me type a dot com...?)

[2424mikeo]

Hey I have great cheap ebooks on weight lost for only $0.50. Check out anyone of my videos for the link.

[MrsBabyfat]

Such motivation for me to lose this 300 pounds of extra weight that I'm carrying, and I'm going to do it right here on youtube! Wish me luck!:)

[comedy101ful]

If you excercise your skin will shrink back to size. I have lost over 70 lbs when i get to my weight goal of 130 lbs I will post a video of me before and after. I used to weigh 330 my right weight is 200 because I am 6'2 and I have a lot of musle also.

[ptwsm]

joer este tio es un ejemplo de lo que se debe y no debe hacer. Lo primero engordar a lo bestia y dejarse como estaba, lo segundo y lo que se debe hacer perder todo esa grasa que le sobraba, lo que es admirable. El tema del exceso de piel es tremendo dado su perdida de peso pero con cirugia y ¿gimnasia? consiguió tener un resultado genial.

[nzgreen1]

this is crap you arent helping anyone

[Anarki23x]

what do they do with the skin? i kinda want to throw out my new leather belt.

[TheDJKWEST]

DO U REALLY WANT TO LOSE WEIGHT FAST. GO TO LOSETHESTOMACH.BLOGSPOT.COM AND IT WILL SHOW U HOW.

[PrettyTigerlilly]

OMG what does the skin do that????

[TheScreamingGoblin]

@PrettyTigerlilly If you have alot of fat your skin gets ''stretched''.

When the fat is gone you still have that skin you used to have when you where fat.

[janice81684]

damn! hes handsome know!

[FathiyaG]

oh my God

[juliemckeegan1]

@TheDramaticsoul77 lmao@change the title

[atlasshrugged2u]

"Buffalo Bill" in the "Hanibal Lechter" series would have been more than pleased!!

[NoJamOnYourBread]

Please tell me you made a coat with your extra skin.

[8smellyjelly8]

did you do it for a klondike bar?

[mhmmyeaohhyea]

great job sweetie

[checkers1245]

Great job. Congrats!

[Cosmickid77]

Hey, I saw the documentary about that guy, he DID NOT have gastric bypass surgery. The title of this video is so misleading.

[Compton2952]

yes he did do more research this guy was a fat fuck now look at him he is a sick fuck lolz.

[ncdude367]

If this was a presentation for a class, it deserved a grade of F. While it is difficult to get insurance to cover a procedure normally classified as cosmetic, the examples shown here would be approved with little to no difficulty...unless the referring surgeon was completely incompetent. 

[videoman1970]

@TheDramaticsoul77 I think the Bariatric procedure was quite successful with david. Why are you so down on people making positive changes in there lives?

[OKzs]

@videoman1970

Did you not read @TheDramaticsoul77 's comment? That person is not upset with positive changes, they are upset because David did not have surgery, he did it via diet & exercise. The person that is making this video wants to show an example of what someone would look like and some people think this is the wrong example since he did not have the surgery that is the debate. I don't know why I keep stumbling upon this video

[videoman1970]

When did David have Bariatric surgery? He looks great thanks to the bariatric procedure.

[DanielR305]

I am trying to get a loan at present for my excess skin to be removed as I had bariatric bypass op in 2008 it was best decision I made ever but getting funding on the NHS was sheer hell as I had togo to grt lengths to get funding such as go in my local press to being on BBC panorama prog. to justify our right to live yet still they lied of much it costed the NHS and put nothing of how it wld save thousands in the future it would cost the NHS nor state it is only op they get financial return on

[tugster19]

holy moly good for you man!

[godofsparta]

i live in holland i go to belgium for goood price tummy tuck >>> singelbergclinic.co.uk/en/node­/64

stay in america and pay more the choice is yours

[mybluebelly]

Maybe you need a strong machinewash and a couple of rounds in a tumbledrier. The heat usually shrinks whatever you put in it!

[lilmantaproot]

@mybluebelly LMAO!!!

[541step]

he must be happy : )

[jcvdblld1006]

wow this guy is lucky lol

[notagainjez]

apparently u can get all this done in sweden .and its free if ur morbidly obese. I guess save up to take a trip.

[Thebasheer11]

haaaaaaaaaa he was realy ugly

now he,s very good looking

[drdukeful]

@drakeGTA you r a bloody liar u used the persons pic under the title bariatric surgery,i was really going to go for the surgery if i had not found out your fuckin lies .hats off to david for he has proved if weight can be gained it can be lost also.

[Doctoratkins]

0:19 I would..

[OneHawaiianHaoleChic]

wow how did he lose weight

[djausk]

@OneHawaiianHaoleChic like you usually lose weight, eat less and exercise.

He didn't do gastric bypass

[168martha]

alguien k me de su correo k sexy

[wenniewoop]

do you know of a way to have medical pay of any of these procedures?

[DrakeGTA]

@wenniewoop Medicare pays for most things that an MD says in a medical necessity, most things that are considers cosmetic they won't.

[TheFirebear69]

@wenniewoop If your insurance covers it, there has to be a co-morbidity to go with the obesity. These would be heart problems, high blood pressure, diabetes, etc. Back problems do not qualify for these. I went through the process. Most insurances will require you to go onto a 6-month physician supervised diet. YOU MUST SHOW WEIGHTLOSS EVERY MONTH! This shows the insurance you're dedicated to losing the weight. I received my approval with no problem.

[paronfisk]

omg, do they let you keep the skin after?

[CheesyPoophs]

@paronfisk LMFAOOO

[powerlifting1by1]

Interesting

[bmwx5777]

молодца

[jojon96]

WTFFFFF is this???

[four4vizslas]

THE PRESENTATION WAS VERY, VERY, GOOD.

THE INFORMATION WAS VERY, VERY, ACCURATE (work in OR).

THE TITLE IS VERY, VERY, WRONG WITH DAVID SMITH'S PICTURES!!!

MAYBE HE WILL SUE YOU FOR FUTURE EARNINGS AS A NURSE FOR MAKING LOTS, AND LOTS, OF PEOPLE THINK THAT HE WAS CURED BY BARIATRIC SURGERY.

WHY NOT SIMPLY PUT IN THE INFORMATION BAR THAT THE PICTURES ARE FOR ILLUSTRATIVE PURPOSES ONLY - - I THINK THAT WOULD SHOW THE MATURE THOUGHT PROCESS OF A NURSE!

GOOD BYE!

[megalokendo]

hooooooo my god

[ilovejasmaine]

eewwwwwwwwwwwwww >.< 0:12 that is the biggest pussy lips i have ever seen lol

[SuperioMan3432]

ahhhh!! ewww!!!! uffgashdhghda*vomit*

how did i get here????

[trilobite3339]

just another reason to be annoyed by the fats

[xxddxx95]

did you have liposuction or what

[Xextreem]

this scares the shit out off me. Iam so glad iam not fat.

[playboss011]

thilo ist das nicht dein vadda .

naja ich liebe dich

[MeeAndChicken]

or just dont get fat and prevent all this shit in the first place

[buddmar]

@MeeAndChicken Easy for you to say. People gain weight for a multitude of reasons, physical, emotional, psychological ... you have no right to be pompous and judgmental ...

[scarequoter]

i only mind the unloud narration. but thanx 4 d info anyway!

[silly999able]

gross but hes kind of cute

[mashenry22]

@silly999able I agree. The whole lack-of-insurance thing sucks but atleast he looks finer than miner now.

[ginamarie34]

regardless of how he lost it wether it be from surgery or not. It saved his life im sure. We should praise him even more for not giving up and fighting through all of this.

[DrakeGTA]

No.

[Remedy13]

i wonder why insurance doesn't cover things like this...you'd think it would....

[eji313]

Because insurance companies are cheap bastards and they would just as soon tell you you were still perfectly functional with 5 pounds of extra skin you'd have to tuck into your pants instead of do the right thing and cover it. I'm sure they'd say it was 100% cosmetic.

[sboonefelton]

@Remedy13 Mine did not cover it either I had to finance it. Can you believ I had over 25lbs of skin removed?

[ericaj58]

The man you have in the pictures is named David Smith. He did not have any type of bariatic surgery, he lost 400 pounds by diet and exercise. He was in the show 650 lb virgin. Please take this down, it is not accurate.

[DrakeGTA]

@ericaj58 Christ o' mighty. How many times do we have to go over this, we know the guy in the vid didn't lose his weight because of a gastric bypass, but he is a good example of what a person who lost that much weight would look like. This video was designed as an educational aid for healthcare professionals.

[ericaj58]

@DrakeGTA How many times? I saw this this video one time and I never wrote to you before.

[four4vizslas]

@DrakeGTA I am very, very, against using other peoples work without using a proper bibliography or works cited. Are you going to nursing school in a thrid world country? Just put a small note in the dang information bar. If you can't make a post-notation, how is a hospital or clinic supposed to trust you to fill out post-incident reporting correctly? I hope you do not rationalize the things you do when you are in a healthcare setting.

[djausk]

@DrakeGTA but still, it's like you put up a video with the name cheese and it's about butter instead.

[four4vizslas]

@ericaj58 GREAT JOB AT POINTING OUT IMPORTANT INFORMATION!

Props for helping to maintain accuracy on YouTube!

I thought the guy did have bariatric surgery (David Smith). We need more people to stick-up for the mis information. All DrakeGTA needs to do is put a caveat in the first line of the information bar. I thought the picutes may have been on DrakeGTA himself. Don't they use a works cited (bibliography) in the school of nursing?

[MrSmithyshaun]

@ericaj58 read the *NOTE under the video

[atlasshrugged2u]

@ericaj58 I thought if you lost it the "right way" like this guy did that one wouldn't have excess skin like this...

Very shocking! I'm not sure I'm convinced he didn't have some sort of surgery; when you do it the right way it's slower but the skins elasticity has time to catch up or better yet doesen't have to "catch up" at all it just all shrinks together with proper diet and excercise.

[MSSHANIA96]

@ericaj58 u dont kno nun so be quiet

[andchisme]

esta muy guapo el chico

[cixbull]

bravo bravo

[buythefrog]

skin elasticity can only keep up with a 2.5 lb per week weight loss..bypass surgeries cause much more aesthetic damage to the body than people are willing to admit...

[NaturesWildFlower]

that guy was hot :)

id tap that

[bobbyjans]

@NaturesWildFlower yeah some fat ppl are beautiful

[Sumvolsgrl52]

The person whose images are in the video is NOT a weightloss surgery patient and I believe it is rude to assume so. He lost all the weight through diet and exercise... I watched his documentary on TLC about a week ago... "600 pound Virgin" or something like that. How dare you use someone's images that you don't even know and misrepresent them as your own. I hope to goodness you are never my nurse. ugh.

[DrakeGTA]

I think you miss the point, the point is to show what happens to a body after weight-loss, whether it's from a gastric bypass or otherwise, the results are similar.

[bigislander72]

@DrakeGTA Well I thing the series should be re-titled if the effects of weight loss is the main point.

I watched the vid and was almost sold on the gastric bypass mantra of "very obese people need this surgery to lose weight". Come to find out he did do it the natural way!!

[dimmydots]

@DrakeGTA Sorry to vote against you. Your title IS misleading. Period. You present good information, so, why not re-title it along the lines of Issues post dramati weight loss or, some thing not using bariatric surgery in the title? Kinda like advertising a steak house only serving tuna.......or something like that....

[four4vizslas]

@DrakeGTA ARE YOU GOING TO USE CRAPPY CHARTING WHEN YOU ARE A NURSE?

WILL YOU ASSUME THAT PEOPLE GET YOUR POINT BY LEAVING VITAL INFORMATION OUT OF THE CHART?

WILL YOU GUESS THAT PEOPLE GET THE POINT WHEN YOU DISCHARGE A PATIENT FOR A PHYSICIAN.

I AM A PA AND I THOUGHT THAT THIS PATIENT * DID * HAVE BARIATRIC SURGERY.

[four4vizslas]

@DrakeGTA ARE YOU GOING TO USE CRAPPY CHARTING WHEN YOU ARE A NURSE?

I would be so, so, mad if some yay-hoo put MY pictures up on YouTube and used them to gennerate lots, and lots, of hits. It is an F U to nurses world wide!

[RTsk2011]

Oh my goodness!!! That is one thing I dont really want so I should get my butt to the gym!!

Gastric Sleeve Aug 5/09...down 55lbs.

[rayzgurl]

Hate to burst your bubble, but no amount of working out helps with the loose skin. I worked out 6 days a week since 6 weeks after my RNY and I still need surgery for the excess skin.

[RTsk2011]

Ah yes, understandable! Thanks for your input! :) Better then having the extra weight! I will be getting the surgery for skin removal then too..

[citycyborg]

I believe you to be wrong. This isnt the case for some people. If your coming from being 600lbs+, then yes. But for those in their 200s.300's, even lower 400's. You could still lose your excess weight and not have loose skin. First thing is to start slowly! People tend to rush it, in which the skin does not catch up. Also the weight and excess skin depend on your height. Lets say we have a 300lb person whose 5"2. Then yes they will need some help with skin. But if the person was 6ft. Tighten up!

[citycyborg]

Then skin can tighten up easier for being taller because the weight is distributed more evenly. The person needs to balance their cardio along with strength training. You lose some fat. You gain some muscle. The skin adheres to the muscle. You need to create new and more muscle for it to adhere to. Also there are several vitamins and tips that help the skin tone up. Research is the key here. Like I before. This isnt the case for everyone. Or anyone whose had surgery. But if you lose slowly, yes.

[stacc123]

your a hottie

[ashworth09]

waw!!! remarkable transformation!

[Rozziio91]

wow nothing is impossible,you look amazing :)

[xant4141]

you are so handsome I hope you get the help you need

[happycath72]

In Australia the Plastics is covered by Medicare if any skin hangs and touches other skin. They do this under Medicare as the underneath of the hanging skin can get infections and ulcers.
