i decided to put together these pics and maybe help someone who is looking into the surgery or someone who is having a rough time! this is the best decision i have ever made for myself! i still have a little bit more to lose and it gets harder as time goes on, but when i look back and my pics before surgery it reminds me of how i NEVER want to look and feel that way again! looking at those pics also reminds me of how far i have come and that i should be proud of myself! some days are harder than others but overall this has been an amazing journey so far!
