Society/Culture Healthy weight loss should be rewarded with free/optional excess skin removal and other elective cosmetic surgeries.

I want to make it clear that there is nothing wrong with excess skin or stretch marks. They are 100% natural, especially if someone is loosing weight or battling obesity.

But I think it would be a huge incentive to those wanting to get healthier if they knew any excess skin they may have can be removed if they would like it to be (without costing an arm and a leg).

Oh this is a pretty good one. The reward/incentive to lose weight is a longer lifespan and better quality of life in general. No way should the taxpayers foot the bill for expensive cosmetic surgery just because some fat slob decided to be healthy for a change.

Thank you. Like WTF type of entitlement BS is this? That’s like saying we should pay for mommy makeovers after women choose to have kids. Fuck outta here. No ones fault but your own for being a fatty. And this is coming from someone who does have loose skin since losing 43 pounds at the beginning of the month.

We get it. It triggers you to think of other people getting healthcare and you think wanting to be healthy is entitled. You're a real edge lord, you've proven it multiple times in the last few minutes.
