Did you ever wanna give up ? Did you ever feel self conscious or not good enough ? I never thought I’d post this, A lot of you do not know this about me but I want to share my story with all of you.... my biggest struggle my whole life was my weight, my body, my scars..... after putting my body through hell and a lot of yo-yo diets that failed and left me starving I was ready to give up.... But in 2012 I was diagnosed with an inactive Thyroid followed by immediate treatment, I began to lose weight yet I still made the decision to have bariatric #gastricsleeve surgery, and while some may look at it as a crutch, I saw it as a new beginning , and a fresh start to have the body I always dreamed of.... After losing 100lbs and working out daily I decided the final fix would be having a tummy tuck and I was left with a horrific scar and an even bigger insecurity ! I always thought that my stretch marks were the most embarrassing thing ever until I saw how badly botched I truly was ! And today looking back I am truly grateful for my family and my friends love & support, for Dr. Marco Pelosi @pelosimedicalcenter for fixing my original #TummyTuckScar , @transformarebellezza for my post op body Treatments , and For @azarjatattoo you amazingly talented human 🙏🏼💖 A true Artist behind the tattoo machine, without you my story would not be complete. I am truly grateful that I found you and I am so in love with my ink ❤️ so let this be inspiration, to Never give up on your dreams, keep pushing yourself and don’t pay attention to what anyone thinks, if you want something bad enough the world is yours 💕 and you are more than enough and perfection may NOT exist.....but you have the power within you to create your perfect story in the wild ride we call life ! NEVER SAY NEVER AND NEVER GIVE UP !!!!! All bodies are different and beautiful ! HEALTH IS WEALTH ! Do it for YOU & ONLY YOU and ALWAYS LOVE THE SKIN YOU’RE IN 💖 These are my Battle Scars that are apart of me Take it or leave it ! The battle made me the #WARRIOR I AM TODAY 🙏🏼💖 #venividivici “I CAME I SAW I CONQUERED” 👊🏽 • • • #weightloss #weightlossjourney #100poundsdown #venividivicitattoo #scarcoveruptattoo #tummytuckbeforeandafter
