Just guessing here but I think he meant before plastics, as most people do NOT get plastics done. And just so you know, I had lots of extra skin in my midsection and arms (see my profile for pix) and when all was said and done, the excess skin was only 5.5 pounds. It does not weigh as much as you think it does, so I say do not even count it in your totals.
And as far as dropping weight after plastics, my experience is that it usually comes back once you heal.
