'Seeing you all post throwback photos and moments made me message my friend from school and ask if she had any photos from 10 years ago when I was 17.

Earlier this year, they shared this picture and wrote: 'Feeling bloated and gross after my flight so thought I'd post a mirror selfie of my sexy bloated boobies coz we are friends. Finally (sic)'
Earlier this year, Sam - who identifies as non-binary and has asked to be referred to with they/them pronouns, said they were 'finally friends' with their body, after revealing they had undergone liposuction at the age of just 12.
Speaking to Jameela Jamil, 33, as part of her body positivity series, I Weigh Interviews, Sam admitted they’ve struggled with their weight since they were a child, and was even picked on at school for being 'chubby'.
They said: 'When I was a kid, I was chubby ... and then it would get worse and worse and worse and I was holding a lot of weight in my chest.
'When I hit 11 years old, I went to the doctor's. I was so self-conscious that it was affecting my mood every day. I had liposuction, I was 12 years old.
'At the time I think I was very happy about it. It didn't really change anything. I think I put the weight back on in two weeks because I hadn't figured out my relationship with food, so it didn't really change anything.
'But being 12 years old and having liposuction on your chest is quite a big deal.'
But in an Instagram post the following month, they revealed they’ve begun to come to terms with their body.
They wrote: 'Feeling bloated and gross after my flight so thought I'd post a mirror selfie of my sexy bloated boobies coz we are friends. Finally (sic).'
