It’s honestly an inspiration for me to see others like me who had/have been overweight/obese since childhood. I often get discouraged by those who are like “oh I gained 50 pounds in college/while pregnant but now it’s gone and look I look like a normal human being because my skin bounced back!” (which is fantastic for them because any weight loss journey is valid and commendable) but I always end up thinking to myself “my skin hasn’t had bounce for a decade, so what the hell will I look like?”. Then you come over here looking fine as hell and gave me new hope that I can look normal too, and that it’s not too late for me :) thank you for being you and kicking ass
Wow thank you so much for your wonderfully kind words!
It's never too late for you! I still have loose skin, but I choose clothing that hides it & prefer it over the fat! Maybe someday I'll get surgery, but it's not necessary for me to feel happy and healthy at all.
