Profile Picture Finally

[cunner 21]

I signed up for the forum 3 years ago. It took until today that I finally got the courage to add a picture to my profile. I was afraid of being seen and "outed" I guess.

My success story is that I have reached a point that I have realized there is nothing to be concerned about. If someone I know recognizes me all the better. Maybe they will approach me and we can discuss what great life choice I feel I have made for myself and I could encourage other who might choose this path to do the same.

For so many years I would avoid getting in pictures over the holidays. I regret now that it is hard to find many pictures with me and my daughters during Christmas over the years. This year I was getting in as many as I could while my girls are still young (8 and 10) to make up for lost time. Looking forward to a happy and healthy 2013 and wish everyone else here the same!!

You look amazing. I know I'm kinda weird, but I can't wait for my hiding muscles to come popping through my fat layers. Lol! Awesome job. I sure hope I gain the confidence you have in relation to talking openly about your wls decision. I'm still at the "only telling who I must" stage. But imagine your decision is a lot more liberating.

Congrats. I'm still not ready to put a face with the name!! Hopefully I'll get the courage to "out myself" one day!!
