Jessica's body journey
Donation protected
My journey started 2 years ago, when I hit 310 pounds. I could barely move, was borderline diabetic, had high blood pressure, and realized that if I did not change, soon, I may not have many years left with my family. I tried diets and exercise and calorie counting, nothing seemed to work. Last resort .... bariatric surgery. Fast forward 2 years, and I've lost over 120 pounds. But nothing could prepare me for all the loose floppy skin, which almost makes me wish I hadn't lost weight. And this has brought me here, to ask for help in raising the funds to get a full tummy tuck and breast lift. I have worked so hard, and come so far, and I desperately want to love my body. I'm so proud of myself for how far I've come, but now instead of being embarrassed of being fat, I'm embarrassed of the saggy arms, the wriggly thighs, and the apron of skin on my belly. Please, if you can help, I would be eternally grateful. Every bit will help towards my dream of finally having a body that I love, to feel confident a d beautiful.
