I wanted to look and feel confident in myself when I walked across the stage yesterday at 12:30pm so I worked out for 2 weeks straight prior to graduation day. I think I'm still in disbelief that my day finally came but it was a great feeling! I feel like my sleeve gave me the confidence and the courage to get as far as I have in less than a year. I had planned to post pone my graduation until May but I didn't and I'm glad I stuck to it. I'm glad I stuck to having my sleeve, I'm glad I found you guys here at VST, this has been one of the greatest years of my life.

I attached a pic below
