while I was out with my daughter, we stepped into a public restroom. I took off my coat and my daughter, who had been looking in the mirror, spun around and grabbed me and made me turn toward her so she could look at me. She asked me if I had a tummy tuck! I lifted my sweater and showed her my 4 incision marks where I had my surgery and told her THEY were responsible for my new figure.
Tonight I wore my tightest fitting pants from five years ago. I literally slid into them and had to curl and fold the waist line (which is button and zippered) around a couple times to make them stay up.
I need to buy new clothes and yet dont dare because it is still coming off.
the biggest miracle is how I dont have an "apple" belly, as one of my exes use to call it (which really hurt my feelings)..its slim and flat, which is why my daughter asked me if I had a tummy tuck. NO more roundness.
I am unable to believe what I see in the mirror...but I do believe how I feel. My health is SO much better!
