‘Skin Tight’: Megan Thinks of Her Own Body as ‘Putty,’ ‘Gross’ (Exclusive Video)

“I just don’t want to hide anymore,” TLC subject says

TLC’s “Skin Tight” subject Megan thinks of her own body as “gross,” likening it to “putty.”

In the above preview clip from this evening’s episode, the 34-year-old walks viewers through her lengthy morning routine, which includes baby powder and compression clothing.

“Everyday, I think about the next day,” she says in the sneak peek, which is exclusive to TheWrap. “What am I gonna hide behind the next day? And I just don’t want to hide anymore.”

Megan still fights the demons of being bullied when she was morbidly obese in high school, per TLC. After graduating, she had the lap-band procedure that helped her lose weight, but complications with the lap-band may now jeopardize her skin removal surgery.

Tonight’s show also follows Ashley, a 24-year-old social worker, who is suffering from joint pain caused by her excess skin when she exercises. Though she is loved by her long-time boyfriend, she cannot handle her arms and legs being seen in public and desperately needs the surgery to move forward with her life.

Watch the video above.

“Skin Tight” airs Wednesdays at 10/9c on TLC.
