What a great song for WLS journey!

There is a song by Nikki Flores on youtube called Silhouette!!!!

I cried as I listened to it... I swear it had to have been written for all of us going through this life changing journey & for our transformations!!! It is a must to listen to it!!!

Tell me your thoughts on this song!!! I think it should become the theme song for WLS patients!!! Lol!!! I was trying to copy the link here but since I am on my phone it won't let me but please be sure to give it a listen , it is so uplifting & inspirational, at least to me!!!

Also here are the lyrics to the song!!!

Silhouette Lyrics

Nikki Flores

I've always been the music in the background I've danced among the shadows on the wall Cause no one ever noticed my details In fact they never noticed me at all

But now I'm breaking free I'm more than an outline of who I use to be I'm coming out of the backlight It's time to be seen, there's no more featureless portrait She's ancient history, but I'll never forget My silhouette, my silhouette

I used to try to hide my imperfections I only saw the world in black and white But now I'm looking at the bigger picture And everything is clearer in my life

But now I'm breaking free I'm more than an outline of who I use to be I'm coming out of the backlight It's time to be seen, there's no more featureless portrait She's ancient history, but I'll never forget My silhouette

Now I've opened your eyes Cause I'm not letting me go stepping out of the dark I'm so in control Leave the old you behind Remember to hold on to your soul

I'm more than an outline, yeah I'm coming out of the backlight

But now I'm breaking free I'm more than an outline of who I use to be I'm coming out of the backlight It's time to be seen, there's no more featureless portrait She's ancient history, but I'll never forget My silhouette

I'm more than an outline of who I use to be I'm coming out of the backlight It's time to be seen, there's no more featureless portrait She's ancient history, but I'll never forget My silhouette

Bringing this back up to the top again for anyone who this song may help throught your transformation! This song has heloed me on many days that I was feeling depressed & felt like I was missing who I was when I was fat. To me this song was a lifesaver & a must go to when I was feeling down & I hooe it will help others as well! That is why every so often I try to bring it back up to the top lol! Hope everyone enjoys their day!!! This is also the song I just used in my new 9 mth progress flipagram video which I plan to put up on here as well!
