“As I start the dialogue around this topic gradually I thought I’d draw attention to an often understated, even diminished aspect of having one’s physical vessel bombarded with foreign intervention: the change in my appearance.

Along with my weight gain I lost muscle mass and my skin lost its ‘youthful’ texture and elasticity. This is a body image talk. nobody ever prepares you for walking around feeling like you’re stuck in someone else’s body.”
