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

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!

      I've hit a stall 9 months out. I'm not worried, though. My fitness levels continue to improve and I have nearly accomplished my pre-surgery goal of learning to scuba dive! One dive left to complete to get my PADI card 🐠
      I was able to go for a 10K/6mile hike in the mountains two days ago just for the fun of it. In the before days, I might have attempted this, but it would have taken me 7 or 8 hours to complete and I would have been exhausted and in pain for the next two days. Taking my time with breaks for snacks and water, I was finished with my wee jaunt in only 4 hours 😎 and really got to enjoy photographing some insects, fungi, and turtles.

      I have no clue where to upload this, so I'll put it here. This is pre-op vs the morning of my 6 month appointment! In office I weight 232, that's 88 lbs down since my highest weight, 75 lbs since my surgery weight! I can't believe this jacket fit... I am smaller now than the last time I was this size which the surgeon found really amusing. He's happy with where I am in my weight loss and estimates I'll be around 200 lbs by my 1 year anniversary! My lowest weight as an adult is 195, so that's pretty damn exciting to think I'll be near that at a year. Everything from there will be unknown territory!!

      I changed my profile image to a molecule of protein. Why? Because I am certain that it saved my life.

        That's brilliant! You've done amazing!! I should probably think about changing my profile picture at some point. Mine is the doll from Squid Games. Ironically the whole premise of the show is about dodging death. We've both done that...
