The excess skin is my kryptonite, my double edged weapon. The only physical thing that I hate and am proud to carry every day. I lost over 180# from my heaviest weight. I gained those pounds during the most traumatic time of my life. I turned to food for comfort when I was hurting. It's been a long journey back to healthy and without those scars, inside and out; i would never be the woman I am today. I carry this skin because it is a piece of me. I do not shy away from my insecurity because it gives me the strength to embrace everything I have overcome. One day the skin will be removed, I will no longer carry the reminder of the darkest days. But I will always know my journey. I will always be proud of the path my life has taken. Today, I look at my skin and I think about the lines that every mother carries. The lines from surgeries which saved my life and changed things for the better. I can probably keep carrying this reminder... I want to stop picking up my skin when I ride! Because damn I am one sexy woman, and that really kills my vibe even just for a second. I love my new found comfort and community. I am going to embrace my sexy bitch goddess and enjoy every moment I can. #vsg #motherhood #survival #weightloss #sexygoddess #bbw #scars #mystory #iamme #lovemeasiam #sexybitch #selflove
