Happy with post-weight loss body, but now hate looking in mirror, what are my options? (Photos)

September 5, 2022
Asked By:Smarty311 in Tampa, FL

B/C of undiagnosed medical conditions (Lyme, pituitary tumor, hypothyroid disease) I rapidly gained 65+ lbs & lost it, plus some, just as fast. I spent 5 years in hospitals, docs & bed ridden. Now that I'm starting to get my health & life back, I just want to look like I did 5y ago at age 32. Mostly b/c I don't recognize myself in a mirror since my short term memory was compromised during it all. What are my options to turn the clock back a bit so I can make up lost time? Thnx for reading!!
