Finally have the body my bigger self only dreamed of. (29)

My whole life I’ve been the bigger kid with the overhanging stomach. I genuinely don’t remember a time I could look down and not see my stomach or not feel like I had to hide it in my clothes. I never felt comfortable in a bikini, ever. Even after I lost the weight, I was stuck with the loose skin for 10 years. I never fully felt like me when I looked in the mirror. 3 weeks ago I finally did something for myself and got a full skin removal + breast lift. I remember looking up at the sky and pleading… please. I’ve done the work. I’ve lived in this body for 10 years. I just want to feel like myself in it. My recovery and results have been insane. I feel so happy. I feel so blessed.
