Bravo to you for being so brave & candid about your scar. And yes, we are our worst critics.

A few years ago I had a minor surgery that left me with a scar on my chest. I’m very self conscious of it and even looked into laser treatments to minimize the scar but in the end decided against it. It’s a part of me now and it reminds me of what I’ve been through.

I am SOOO behind, I’m sorry.

I am so proud of you for doing this, in your place, most people probably wouldn’t.

I think you are beautiful just the way you are!

That is really brave! I don’t think it looks bad at all. You’re beautiful, your back doesn’t change anything about that. Besides, scars make people a little more interesting.

BTW: You’re SO thin! Wow! But I’ve seen your fridge! :))) I understand.
BTW2: I love your PJ’s!

Very brave, Zandria…and what I said in my post several months ago…
….also, acts of bravery–taking one step at a time–lead to what we fear becoming less frightening with each mile we walk…

Thanks for the comments, guys. You’re right—we usually tend to be harder on ourselves than other people are. Maybe that’s another reason why I decided to do this. And although I wouldn’t necessarily say it’s because I’ve suddenly become comfortable with myself, it’s not a bad thing to have some sense knocked into our heads sometimes. I’ll try to keep these comments in mind in the future. :)

Agreed that everyone is their own worst critic. It took me awhile to even figure out what you were talking about (the pushed out rib and all). It’s different, but it’s not that bad :-)

How incredibly brave of you :) And for the record, I think you look great. I think everyone’s their own worst critic, and imagines monstrous things where something pretty innocuous lies.
