I had 15 pounds of extra skin that was removed from stomach. It was a hard road to travel had to find a doctor that was willing to fight with my insurance company to cover the procedure. They kept saying it was cosmetic and not medical. Even though I was getting infections under the flap, the foul odors that I would have because of the infections, the psychological effect it was having on me because I wouldn’t go outside due to the fact I was afraid someone would smell the odor, and all the other doctors appointments that had copayments to document everything. Finally, in end the doctor who proformed my surgery never gave up on me and got my insurance to pay. Thank God for the doctors that actually know what we go through even after trying to get ourselves health. Good luck to everyone needs to have this done.

Ya'll I took the sexist selfie at the gym yesterday. I messed around and cat-fished myself lol. I was like damn girl I would date all of that lol. Picture had me forgetting about my loose skin and that was amazing. I never thought I would have the confidence to take a picture like this or ever thought I would look like this. My body is coming together nicely. I will take loose skin and smile over being obese and unhealthy any day!!

Really excited to have gotten back into jogging! I used to do cross country back in high school, but after putting on weight I found running difficult, painful, and that I was getting injured often. I'm in the middle of couch to 5k right now and I'm so amazed at how much easier and more pleasant jogging is! Can't wait to get faster, be able to run longer, and see the pounds/inches continue to come off
