One year ago today I went in for my reduction surgery.
After years of struggling with sever sleep and upper back pain, being teased for a large chest and struggling to find any kind of shirt that fit I was able to get a reduction from a F/H – I had Juvenile Hypertrophy – where one breast was 2 sizes larger than the other – now I am down to a D36.
Was it in vain? No. Was it for someone else? No. Was it a particular easy surgery? No.
But it did change not only my size but so much more. It gave me the confidence, it gave me more body love and it made me proud of how I look – it’s sad that a surgery had to change this – but let’s me honest, we all have parts of ourselves we feel embarrassed about or parts we wish we could change – mine was a medical issue.
I think their is so much hope for more body love and acceptance in this day and age and I hope I can give you a little insight into when I got mine.
I challenge you to tell yourself something you love about your body, if you feel comfortable please share!
