    WLS post op surgery stress

    Sunday 6 September 2020, 17:57

    Old pic but one of the more important ones I've taken.

    People STILL ask me 3.6 years later "WHEN are you having reconstructive surgery?"
    "Are you gonna get your boobs done?"
    "Will you have a tummy tuck?"
    "What's your thoughts of implants?"
    As if the world and my surroundings expect me to bounce back to a "normal" after my massive weight loss after I had Gastric Bypass surgery to help me start a new healthier lifestyle.

    Many seems to wanna rush me into the finish line.
    Because it's normalized that you automatically have to "finish the weight loss race" by having reconstructive surgery post-weight loss, especially if there's leftover excess skin.

    The answer for my part is: maybe. I don't know 🤷🏼‍♀️
    If I decide to do it, it's not because of you or anyone else wanting me to.
    It's up to me and me alone.

    I felt bullied into having WLS (weight loss surgery), because society poked fun at me being 121 kg (266.75 lbs).
    And society's still up my behind about continuing my weight loss journey by dropping the excess skin that came with losing 50 kg (110.23 lbs).

    Post-op I faced many challenges:
    ... I have been stalked at the local grocery store.
    ... I was often publicly fat shamed by friends/family, coworkers, strangers and others.
    ... I have cried many times because of my over weight.
    ... I've abused my body because of my weight.
    ... I've tried every diet to lose excess weight that's out there.
    ... I tried working out excessively.

    All because society can't accept heavier people 🤦🏼‍♀️

    But nobody's gonna bully me into having reconstructive surgery post-op.
    I refuse.

    I have MY reasons why I chose WLS, and you can read all about it on my blog cus I won't sidetrack that here in this post.

    Gammal bild men en som jag tycker är en av de viktigaste jag tagit.

    Folk frågar mig ännu 3 år och 6 mån. senare "NÄR ska du göra plastikkirurgi?"
    "Ska du göra om dina bröst?"
    "Kommer du göra om magen?"
    "Vad tycker du om bröstimplantat?"
    Som om världen och min omgivning förväntar sig att man ska förvandlas till "det normala" efter en viktnedgång, speciellt efter jag gick ner 50 kg med Gastric Bypass.
    Samhället förväntar sig att man ska fortsätta viktresan på något sätt.

    Många har nästan stressat mig att försöka fortsätta till "mållinjen".
    Eftersom det är normaliserat att man automatiskt ska "avsluta viktrejset" genom att ha plastik efteråt också pga all den överblivna huden.

    Svaret från min sida är: kanske... jag vet inte 🤷🏼‍♀️
    OM jag bestämmer det, är det inte för att någon annan vill att jag ska göra det, eller stressa mig att genomgå borttagning av hud.
    Det är upp till MIG.

    Jag kände mig mobbad av min omgivning att genomgå  Gastric Bypass när jag vägde 121 kg.
    Och omgivningen har fortsatt genom att pusha mig efteråt också att fortsätta genom att göra plastikkirurgi.

    Före op:n hade jag många dagar där...
    ... jag blev förföljd på affärer.
    ... blev hånad av familj/vänner/bekanta/kollegor/främlingar.
    ... gråtit många tårar pga min övervikt.
    ... gjort min kropp illa pga min övervikt.
    ... tränar tills jag kräkts pga min övervikt.
    Allt för att samhället generellt har svårt att acceptera stora människor 🤦🏼‍♀️

    Men ingen ska mobba mig till att genomgå plastikkirurgi. 
    Jag vägrar.

    Jag har MINA anledningar till varför jag valde Gastric Bypass. Men kommer inte ta upp allt här i detta inlägg.
    Det mesta finns redan på bloggen.

    70s vibe and 3h curls

    Sunday 10 May 2020, 11:59

    Sunday look fixed 👌🏼
    Only took me roughly 3h 😅😬

    • S t y l e •
    Handmade dress from what I guess is the 1970s 🤷🏼‍♀️
    A silver brooch formed as a leaf, to blend in with the dress' theme.
    Two small "victory rolls" of the bangs, didn't feel like dealing with it today.
    Combed through the hair with my fingers, and pinned it to the back and added an organza rose to cover it up.
    And to have something fun to look at.

    love hating the skin

    Monday 6 April 2020, 20:34

    I have a love-hate relationship with my stomach.


    The skin is lose.

    It's uncomfortable when I move.

    It get pinched a lot.

    Every day I have to moisturize multiple times cus it gets horribly dry, itchy and drives me absolutely crazy.

    The excess skin makes me look fatter than what I am.

    And it triggers my head-ghosts.


    But I need to accept the changes my WLS journey brought on.

    I need to accept what is until I can get back on track.

    Some choose not to have plastics after and for the longest time I felt I wasn't needing nor want it, but now I feel like I want to in order to fix the minor issues and triggers I face on a daily basis.

    Just not anytime soon.


    Don't think I'm not happy about my saggy tummy. It's a blessing and a curse all wrapped into one.

    It reminds me what was, what is, and what to look forward to.

    One day I want to be able to look down and not get upset at what I see.
