Mar 31, 2009

Okay, a freind came over yesterday so I finally got my after shots for my tummy tuck. 
The pictures are a must for me to see and reflect on.  I struggle with the changes and how I feel about my body.  This is a good reminder of both how far I have traveled on this journey and that I do look healthier and better.  I also feel it is important for those who have not had the proceedure done to know it is important!  After loosing all the weight (170 pounds for me)  I felt like it just wasn't worth it when I still looked round as round.  With my chest size and excess skin... I felt I didn't look much different.  Now I see what a change it is.  It didn't take away the mental struggle I face everyday with food.  But it did remove a large portion of self consciousness I felt in public.
