Just saw my boyfriend~ 1st time since plastics
I've known him for 20+ years (we were best friends in college), and we've been back together 2 years now. He has loved me thin, fat, thin with floppy skin, and now thin with scars. He's so wonderful. Nothing between us was any different, because he has always been wonderful towards me. What was different was that I am no longer self-conscious about walking around naked in front of him. It felt so liberating!! My thighs are still a mess and my boobs are not the best, but at the age of 45, I finally feel good in my own skin.

This is the first time for me...actually as long as I can remember that I too feel confident. I can't wait till we are totally healed and can really enjoy life post plastics. I know it will only get better over the next couple of months.
Glad you have a man just like mine who has loved you fat, thin with loose skin, and thin with incision lines. We are both truly blessed!
And yes you are BEAUTIFUL, I thought that even of your before photos! Have a great week.
How wonderful to have someone love you for YOU!!
"I finally feel good in my own skin." .... Awesome!! Can you say the forbidden words..."flat tummy"??
And inspiring...my nerves are shot and I really needed to read this right now!
My TT is scheduled for Friday... I am soo nervous but looking forward to being able to walk around naked and not self conscious in front of ME! lol I'm 53 and have begun to have thoughts of... Am I being rediculous... I have had this horrible body for so long its almost ...ALMOST, but not quite, scary to think I might be happy with the way I look in the mirror...
Guess I'm having pre-TT jitters! YIKES!!!!!!!
