Skin Removal from huge weight loss journey

Kaiapoi, Canterbury

Hello my name is Karl.

I am a 32yo father of 3 who is studying to become a teacher.

I quit my career to stay at home and raise my youngest son who was born with cerebral palsy 3years ago and i became lazy with my own self care and inturn became massively overweight hitting over 165kgs. I have in the past year found a huge passion for the gym and healthy eating lifestyle after deciding to set an example to my son about pushing past limitations and have lost over 83kgs in the last year and abit through hard work and fixing my unhealthy relationship with food. I really want to get on the bodybuilding stage but have lots of loose skin in the way.

The surgeries needed will total around 30k by themselves without the costs associated with the healing time and after care.

There is no way I will ever be able to afford this so i am looking for some legends that are willing to donate or even just share to help me get the skin removed.

If the full amount isn't raised then all donations will go into my savings account for theses surgeries and nothing else as it's high on my to do list of life goals to help get over my body dysmorphia and as it's done in stages so around 13.5k for the first, second and third. First would be the loose skin around my abdomen which to me is the most important.

Thank you for reading
