I will be getting some plastic surgery. I started out very large so the extra skin is a medical problem more than vanity. Kaiser does cover the panniculicomy (sp?). Thats the removal of extra belly skin without doing a tummy tuck which is tightening of the muscles. Extra skin is different for everyone. Age, size, genes all come into effect. Just gotta wait and see how your skin shrinks.
