Top 5 things I learned during my skin removal journey. It was emotional, painful, and honestly the most freeing thing I’ve ever done.
If you’re fighting through weight loss, loose skin, or thinking about surgery… you’re not alone! I'm here and I support you!!
A few things I learned
1. You don't just lose skin you lose a whole version of yourself. Such an emotional change!
2. The mental recovery is way harder than the physical.
Your body heals fast. -- Your mind takes time.
3. You don't realize how much loose skin controlled your life until it's gone. Everything feels different.
4. The scars don't make you insecure. They make you so proud of your accomplishments. They're trophies and completely changes your confidence
5. Loose skin never meant you failed, It means you won!!
Zero regrets! Best thing I could've ever done for myself was to remove the "past"!
This was about a month post-op when this was taken
