No longer feel fat


Today is my first consultation with a plastic surgeron. I'm looking into having a tummy tuck and boob job. Until I get rid of this belly fat I will always feel fat. I'm ready to stop feeling fat.

I will let you know how it goes!

I'm not brave enough to show my before but this is a close before & after I found online.
