OH MY GOSH. I cannot believe it has already been a year since jaw surgery! It is absolutely insane how time flies, and how much has changed since this date last year.
i...
was in my sister's wedding
turned 22
got my braces off
graduated from college
moved out of my sorority house after 2 years
vacationed in New York City and Washington D.C.
went to a wedding in Texas
packed up my life
and moved to California
got a job in marketing (what?)
moved into a townhouse in LA with my cousin
found out I was going to be an auntie again!
so many things are different, and I am so happy with where my life is at right now.
i have been so blessed!
thank you, to each and every one of you, for following me on my journey and offering words of encouragement when things were tough.
for everyone who is pre-surgery, i know the one year post-op may seem lightyears away, but soon enough you'll be standing right where i am today
happier. healthier. and with a much better smile :)
i used to always take pictures front on. if my face was turned a little bit, it was always a picture i hated.
now i don't mind.
(i will post more before/after pictures tomorrow. my computer is failing me right now)
'AFTER' PICS:
things have definitely changed :)

so many amazing changes!
You look absolutely gorgeous, I can really only imagine how awesome it must feel to be able to take pictures from any angle. I think a lot of us have that habit of not wanting to show our profiles in pictures, it's so motivating to see how happy you look post surgery. I wish you all the best in your amazing future. BTW thanks so much for that website, I'm going to try the 12 weeks starting monday.

Dani you look great! I'm so happy you're loving California! Can't believe it's been a year for you already! WOW! I guess that means I should be getting out of braces soon, yippee! I'll have to ask my ortho next week :-)
p.s. you look super duper young in the before pics. I think the surgery gave you a much more "sophisticated" look (even though you were cute before too!).

Dani you are such an inspiration, i hope i look as amazing as you after surgery! hope you're enjoying your new life in california :)

I go under the knife in 8 days, so this is very encouraging. I have an open bite, and really haven't found very many before and after pictures. Glad things have gone so well for you!

I can see the improvement! I know it's been a long time, but all the same, congratulations on the success of your jaw surgery and getting your braces off! I can only imagine how happy you were with the results. Kudos to your surgeons for doing such a great job!
