SANDI McCoy, from Louisville, Kentucky, turned to comfort eating when she discovered that a pseudo-brain tumour was making her go blind. At her heaviest, Sandi weighed 420lbs and could no longer put her shoes on without her mom-s help. She realised that she needed to lose weight - and fast! Through a combo of clean eating and exercise, as well as bariatric surgery, Sandi lost over 240lbs. Since losing the weight, Sandi has faced body dysmorphia due to all the loose skin that remains on her stomach and legs. Today, Sandi is embracing her beauty in a photoshoot that will show off her excess skin. She told Truly: -I want everyone to know that you are beautiful no matter what you look like

I just don-t understand how the amount of eating gets out of control-I find it intriguing. I-m not a food person-struggled with weight here and there. I guess I am lucky that this is not my issue. But I know so many people that are -foodies-
They are passionate about food. And food is so amazing! Right!
But for me-I enjoy going to my favorite Italian restaurant-it-s pretty much scheduled-if I go to my favorite restaurant I eat much less during the day-I really want to eat and eat when I get there-BUT -I hate how I feel when I overindulge-honestly you just can-t eat the amazing bread, delicious salad and then try to eat the entree! So I scip the bread and salad-I never indulge to the point I am miserable. It-s hard-but I hate feeling like crap after a meal-honestly it-s so hard not to eat myself into missary-but if you just enjoy a meal and not overindulge-the whole experience becomes amazing-without feeling guilty and bloated.

Hey I'm someone who was slightly more than 420 starting weight. I've manually dropped 80 lbs now and you look just like me. but red head. Alternative and everything.
It's very hard to find our body type.
How old are you? I'm 26 and I think we're the same age but your age is nowhere on the internet.
You not being able to remove the skin makes me feel not alone financially but also slightly hopeless as it really is as unaffordable as I thought.
You really motivate me. Thank you. Hope to hear a reply like other Comments I see

The loose skin is and was the reason why I stopped my weight loss journey I stopped because I was scared of what I would look like but I'm starting back In 2019 I had lost about 130lbs and I lost my dad and I stopped working out I was depressed and scared now I have gained back almost all of it but I am starting back you have inspired me to not give up thank you.

Omg I was gobsmacked when she said about her sight! She's made 2 huge major life adjustments. that's amazing because I think I would crumble. Well done girl. Smaller or larger you are worthy! Your commitment and work and ability to -bounce back- after losing your sight is inspirational.

I had the same rare reaction to an antibiotic (doxycycline, luckily my eye doctor caught it before it did any major damage. I had to go through an MRI and spinal tap to make sure I didn-t have too much pressure in my head. I-m sorry that that happened to you too. You look beautiful!
