TWO WEEKS!

Hello there everyone,

Just thought I'd make a quick post because Evan is off getting pizza, but mostly because today marks 2 weeks before my surgery!

I'm starting to get mixed feelings... I've kept telling myself this whole time that this surgery is necessary but is it really? It's not causing me any TMJ pain, or problems chewing or speaking, the only thing is that the right side of my jaw clicks. And that doesn't even hurt. Also I'm starting to realize this decision was almost never mine. My Orthodontist basically told me I had to do it. Or made it such a big deal that I thought it was necessary.
Apparently this surgery is supposed to prevent things, but the risks involved are developing the things I'm trying to prevent?
Am I even old enough to handle such a surgery?

On the other hand, I am quite excited. This surgery has been talked about for 3 years, and the day is only 2 weeks away.

But seriously, is all this even worth my face completely changing when I don't even have any issues? Like yeah my lips don't touch, but that's cosmetic. And I've been trying to convince myself that this isn't cosmetic, since I'm against that, but I'm failing miserably.

For my friends and family that read this, any words of encouragement would be appreciated. I'm starting to get nervous already, and I know some people close to me don't agree with this surgery at all, which makes me even more nervous.

I'll post soon, the latest being a week from now when I get my surgical hooks on!!

3 weeks!!!

Hiya errrrrr-one,
Today makes it exactly 3 weeks before my surgery!! I'm actually surprised at how calm and ..unworried? I am. It's gonna be such a life-changing experience, and I'm going around acting as if it isn't even going to happen.

Maybe that's just it. Maybe I'm in denial that it's gonna happen. Whatever the case, it is going to happen.
Oh, and if anyone who has had Genioplasty stumbled across this post, please let me know your experience since you got it. I'm concerned that it's more likely I'll lose permanent feeling in my lower lip/chin and I want to know if that's actually the case. Of course I'll ask my surgeon but any personal experiences on it will be so much help.

I'm kinda rambling now so I think I'm just gonna go do some Rosetta Stone now... I'm learning German hehe. Anyways I'll post after I see my surgeon next Tuesday.

Have a good weekend everyone :)

Oh and PS- I think I'm not going to do Jaw Surgery videos on Youtube just yet. Unless my friends convince me otherwise, I think I'm just gonna wait until after my surgery, when I'm able to talk properly, to do videos. Idk. byeeeeeeeeeeee

Pictures

Hey everyone

So I promised that I would upload pictures today and I'm sticking to my promise. Down below are pictures of the front of my face, and my profile from the left and right side, with my face completely relaxed. The only thing I have on in regards to make-up is a bit of mascara so that shouldn't alter the look for the before and after pictures.


Front ( So attractive)


Left side (Even more attractive)



Right side (Oh hot damn)


And just for shits and giggles, an even MORE attractive picture of me taken the other day.



 And since you're probably scarred for life by looking at that picture above, here's a nicer picture of me.

Oh, and I finally joined the gym today! Goodlife Fitness. Everyone there is so nice, and I have a couple friends who work out there. And thankfully, they will hold off my payments until I come back from surgery. So that's a plus.

I'm just about to record and edit my first Youtube video, and see how well that goes. If it turns out good, I MIGHT upload it. But I don't know. I think I said in my post last night that I find it more invasive than just blogging by itself. So we'll see.

The next time I receive new information on my surgery will be Tuesday, as I explained in my previous post. If I post before then, it will most likely be a personal post.

Talk to you all soon!
