Is it weird that I want to see her in just her undergarments lol Like I’m always trying to figure how her body is proportioned. Does she have a really long torso? Or does she just have a very big saggy belly that makes it seem that way.

Hahaha! Okay, now I can’t ever unsee this! Talk about taking crazy cat lady to a whole new level.
I’ll be the first to admit my body is the weirdest. Here’s the break down. I’m only 5’2 and definitely long torsoed and short legged. See how low my waist is next to Tyson’s legs? He’s 5’11 for reference. Then on top of that, I used to weigh 100+ more lbs than I do now! So, yes, I’ve got saggy skin on top of a still fat body, which makes for the awkward “long cat” look. I’m a continual work in progress.

You never tried for skin removal after the major weight loss?

I wish it was as easy as it sounds to have skin removal. I wouldn’t qualify for it yet as I’d need to lose even more from my belly area before I’d be a good candidate.
On top of that, it’s very rare for an insurance company to cover that surgery as it’s considered cosmetic and we don’t have it in the budget to pay out of pocket right now.
It’s definitely something I’ve wished and hoped for for a long time. I’ve actually even researched to see if it’s possible to donate skin to a burn unit. But it doesn’t work like that, unfortunately.
I know it’s easy to assume I don’t care about my health or my body because I don’t show or talk about that on social media. I used to show a lot more, but it’s a deeply personal thing and sharing so much of it actually started to work against me mentally. Being more open about showing what my body looks like in the current moment and accepting that that is what I look like in this stage of my journey (or whatever you want to call it) has surprisingly been helpful to keep me motivated behind the scenes. This is what I look like now. It’s not what I looked like in the past and it’s not what I want to look like in the future.
Sorry for the long winded reply and going off on a tangent, but it IS something I care about. I know being on social media makes me fair game to make comments online. But outside of social media, there is a whole world who judges me and every other large person without knowing anything about us. My hope is that, even though I can’t inspire people with my personal journey, I can help encourage them to accept who they are now and to not give in to believing what society tells us we are.
And now I’ve gone on even longer. Lol sorry. I try not to reply here often, because I absolutely do understand the concept behind the site - even if I do or don’t agree with it. But I do find value in the feedback that is constructive. And I absolutely find value in real conversation.
