Being okay with your body starts with looking in the mirroring and acknowledging what you see. Day after day you peer into the reflection that stares back and you listen to the words that pop up in your mind. Hateful words spilled between mistakes made and every new discovery. With each negative criticism that rushes in our angry inner critic takes a seat to get comfortable. Instead of pulling up a chair we replace those words with something kind no matter how silly. Before you know it you'll look up one day and that kind silly thought will begin to bubble to the surface more quickly with ease and what once was a seething rage turns into a timid fondness. When fondness finds it's way to reciprocal love you have found the one. The person who will always find a way get you back to neutral ground. YOU. We are the keys to our own happiness. ~ Listen to her whispers because one day she going to be your biggest hypeman. ~ I love you LJ. #bodypositivity #hanes #ostomy #chronicallyill #Inspiration #bagout #arthritis #jointpain #ostomy #stoma #ostomybag #ostomyawareness #ostomysurgery #ostomymom #ostomylife #bagcovers #ostomate #ulcerativecolitis #ostomylife #spoonie #ostomate #stoma #nocolonstillrollin #getyourbellyout #spooniemom #spoonielife #endstomastigma #chronicillness #spooniesunite #spooniesupport #ostomyblogger https://www.instagram.com/p/CYii0eyMuzV/?utm_medium=tumblr

On Dec 7, 2015 I had #ostomysurgery. I was all in. No turning back even if the bionic colon was invented the very next day (it hasn’t been yet BTW but giving you my thought process in that moment). I chose not to have a “fake colon” called a J pouch because that meant at least another year of surgeries for a mediocre result. You see, based on where my disease had manifested, I would most likely…

Never thought I would be brave enough to post photos like these, but here we go! For months leading up to surgery I was so bent out of shape about how my self-esteem would be affected. But this process has taught me so much more about self love and body positivity. To those who think it’s “gross”, this surgery could be saving my life! If you can’t see beauty in that, shame on you! To all my fellow #IBDwarriors I hope you will embrace yourself at all stages of your journey. #IBDSuperHeroes #Crohns #Colitis #IBD #CrohnsDisease #UlcerativeColitis #IBDawareness #Ostomy #Ostomate #OstomySurgery #IBDlife #OstomyAwareness #OstomyBag #Stoma #Ileostomy — view on Instagram https://scontent.cdninstagram.com/vp/3e5040ea4bf4b1c49e5f7af65651b2a6/5CA2B5C8/t51.2885-15/sh0.08/e35/s640x640/46650650_288024045240161_4902269211524237560_n.jpg?_nc_ht=scontent.cdninstagram.com

I hope my meltdown goes some way to showing people that having surgery resulting in a bag for life is NOT the awful outcome it is often made out to be. A bag for life can be the difference between living your life and just existing. My first #ileostomy was the difference between alive and dead. I was willing to see myself in debt for years to come by going private, to get my life back after 11 years of pretty much constant poor health, 6 surgeries, 2 slices and dices with local anaesthetic and multiple procedures and tests (invasive and non-invasive) every year, plus medication with ridiculous body and mind altering side effects. Yes, there will be nights I wake up to leaks, covered in shit. There will be mishaps when I'm out and about, sore skin and emergency bag changes in public toilets, and yes I'm going to be pissed about it. But, at least I'll be able to be out and about! I'll be able to eat and I'll be able to drink and I'll be able to enjoy picnics and make plans that I won't have to cancel! I'll be able to dance and smile and be fucking happy, because that's what pain free life can be! I'm so excited to be able to live my life again, and I cannot wait to see what I can make of it 💜 - Regrann from @sahara88uk #IBDSuperHeroes #Crohns #Colitis #IBD #IBDlife #IBDfighter #IBDwarrior #CrohnsDisease #UlcerativeColitis #IBDsucks #IBDproblems #InflammatoryBowelDisease #CureIBD #IBDawareness #JpouchExcision #Stoma #Ostomy #Ostomate #Jpouch #OstomySurgery — view on Instagram https://scontent.cdninstagram.com/vp/0ecd0fd8667d6b04a6550f3a357b7386/5C2B0556/t51.2885-15/sh0.08/e35/s640x640/40705482_2311714332395531_3780112256357079240_n.jpg
