101 Things: A Picture a Day
For my 101 things project, I need to take a picture a day for one month. I decided to use this opportunity to document the last month of my 20s. That’s right–this is the first day of the last month of my 29th year. I’m taking deep breaths…
This is me “helping” my husband with dinner. That’s right, I fake stirred the pasta sauce for this picture. Don’t hate me.
I almost didn’t post this photo. Ever since I had the reconstruction after my masectomy (I um… upgraded from an A to a C–I figured if I had to have a masectomy, I might as well get something out of it!), I’m really self-conscious about my chest. I feel like having bigger… assets makes me look chubby in the midsection. I know, I know.
But it’s self-esteem week, and I’m going to embrace the positive! I look happy, I have nice arms, and we wound up having a great dinner!

Chubby in the midsection? Whatever! You have a thin face and thin arms, so obviously you’re not chubby. It’s nice to finally see a photo of you. Maybe one day we’ll have a chance to meet up in person!
I knew they were fake, but I was thinking, “Nice boobs!” LOL
Great picture!
I have 2-1/2 months left before my very first 29th birthday. Scary.
If you check out Breast Cancer on CafePress, there are a ton of funny t-shirts about fake breasts after a double masectomy.
No chubby midsection there, crazy lady.
From the picture you shared I say you have zero reason to have self-esteem issues - you look fantastic!
You look great and what a great idea to increase the size after a going through a masectomy! And no, you absolutely don’t look chubby!!
