Excess Skin Removal

Donation protected

Hello! My name is Miranda and in past two years I have lost 95 pounds through diet and exercise! I became a certified personal trainer and nutrition advisor in August 2013, and I help multiple people reach their fitness goals.


I am so proud of myself for losing the weight and keeping it off, but unfortunately I am still uncomfortable with how my body looks. That is mostly due to the fact that I have close to 25lbs of excess skin left on my body from losing weight that causes me a lot of discomfort. (You can scroll down to the bottom of the page to see pictures of my excess skin.)

I can pull handfuls of loose skin away from my body on my arms, back, stomach, and thighs. The skin on my stomach gets pinched from my pants, and the skin on my inner thighs sometimes get irritated from rubbing together.
My breasts have quite a bit of excess skin as well, I have hardly any breast tissue left from my weight loss. I went from a size 42F to a 32C, and even then I do not fill out bras well, the skin just sort of sits wrinkly inside of the bra. It causes pain in my shoulders and back to have to carry this saggy skin on my chest, and because I have to wear bras so tightly to get any support, it usually ends up causing my breasts to feel sore. I also get large, red, painful indents on my shoulders and under my arms.


You can read about the procedures I need done here:

I plan to have the surgeries done by April of 2015, just before my birthday. If I do not reach $20,000 by then, I plan to take out loans if I can.
As 23 year old living on her own, I can barely afford to pay my bills right now with a full time job and running my own small business.


If you donate, THANK YOU! I cant tell you how much it means to me. All I want is to be happy with how my body looks after working so hard to lose almost 100 pounds. Thank you, again. I truly appreciate it!
