9 Month Checkup today
I had my 9month post op appt. today. It went well and he said I've done fantastic. He asked how much more I wanted to lose and I said "ideally 20" but realistically 10-15 probably. He said he'd be happy if I stayed where I was or even only lost 5 more pounds. So I guess I'm a success! I'm feeling good and wear anything from a 6 to a 10 and I'm in Medium shirts for the first time since I got boobs! It's truly amazing how this surgery does - and doesn't - change your life. It's not a magic fix to make you happy. If you had a crappy relationship before, it's probably still going to be crappy. I think losing the weight gives you more confidence in many ways, but it doesn't change who you are, and it definitely doesn't change your insecurities. So I'm learning who I am as an almost skinny person and it's quite a journey. Hope everyone is doing well!
