Do you accept your body?
Too much emphasis is put on the perfect body. Not all people look like a runway model.....matter of fact very few. As we loose weight our inner beauty is gonna shine through. My expectations is not to be a model ..at 54 that was not even on the agenda. I am hopeing I can accept the new samller body especially since it will be foreign to me. I have been obeise 90% of my life . That is the person I know. I am not even sure I will ever see myself as thin, when I do get there. My highest weight was 334 and now I am 242. I'm already seeing skin issues but that does not concern me a lot yet. Whether I am 334 or 150 I will always be Myrtis. I always wanted to loose the weight but I never let it stop me. Well mentaly it didnot but as I got older physicALLY it did. Thats why wls. I know I am a little off subject. When I get the weight off I will have a very low apron (belly skin) and it will be wop sided due to hernias. I hope when they fix the hernia I can get a TT also so I don't have to sling my belly over my shoulder to walk. Wouldn't that be a sight. But the rest of the sags and bags are mine to keep. What I have done will not be undone because of my body not being that of a model. My joy and pride will over ride that.
