1 YEAR

Helloooooo people of the internet!!

So I have been meaning to write on here for my one year anniversary post but I have been so busy and also been on holiday that I have just had to keep putting it off! So on the 7th July 2016 it was the one year anniversary for my double jaw surgery :O

Okay so that is CRAAAAAZZZYYY

To tell you the absolute truth it feels like it's been way longer than a year, at least feels like two or three but to even say it has been a year is mad. It has been such  a crazy roller coaster.

I knew a lot of people before my jaw surgery but now I am meeting people with my new face and it is so weird that they met me like this and not like before...

I still get some crazy reactions from people who haven't seen me in a while but I suppose that's normal, it's just crazy to think what this surgery can actually do! I can honestly say I have never been happier and thank you so much if you took the time to ever read this and going through the process with me. Please do not hesitate to ask any questions!

I also still have some numbness at the back of my jaw like where it starts, some teeth and gums and a small spot of my chin.

I hope if anyone is going through recovery now is doing absolutely fine and I also hope anyone who is thinking of having it done or is close to having there's done is fine as well. It is a very hard process, I cannot deny that. If you have a lot of people around you and supporting you then it does make it easier, please do not misjudge the strength you will lose in the recovery months and take it easy.

Thanks again!

been a while...

Hey guys! So today is my 18th Birthday. I remember when I was finding out about the operation they said I may have to wait till I'm 18! Instead I'm sitting here, with no braces, small numbness on my chin and an 8 months and 15 days post op and couldn't feel anymore better about myself.

Recently, two of my friends had the same surgery. One of the girls is now on 62 days post op and I am so proud of her because I remember her asking me if it was worth the pain, I remember her saying she thought it would be going on for ages but she's nearly there! My other friend, went into the surgery on the 2nd March 2016, he is now twenty days post op, he's still got a long way to go but he's done so well.

Anyone reading this who is coming up to having this surgery (or is considering it), do it. Yes, I must admit it was the hardest thing I have ever had to go through in my life, but now I am a happier, confident me. I am so proud of myself and I love my new look. But do it for YOU. Not the lowlifes that want you to change, do it because you want to change. You have one life, make it count. Go out there and make yourself happy, if it's what you want, you can get it.
