Boogie2988 Weight Loss Journey<\/h2>\n

Boogie2988 grew up as an obese child, which is one reason why his childhood was miserable. He had always endured bullying because of his weight. He struggled with obesity all through his adult life. In addition, he also suffered from lymphedema, diabetes, and depression.<\/p>\n

What bothered him about his obesity is not the weight but that it limits what he can do. Because of this, Boogie2988 decided to go under the knife.<\/p>\n

The problem is that he weighed 597 pounds at that time. The doctors required weight of 450 pounds to get clearance for operation. He managed to get a doctor from Mercy Network. Boogie2988 attended orientation sessions before surgery. On August 1, 2017, he finally underwent gastric bypass surgery<\/a>.<\/p>\n

But his only problem now is his loose skin, and cosmetic surgery might be the only solution to that.<\/p>\n
