since i plan doing femur on dr guichet, and since im a chinese and i can only speak a little english, i will say im going to UK to study english and i will post a lost of self picture everyweek .
What was your excuse for going abroad?
Hello femoral. I am quite young actually and I feel I could get away with the late growth spurt card. Also I plan on telling one of my family member before i go incase at any point i need help. Even if my whole family found out, they would only be concerned about me and would not mock me. The reason I can not tell them and must avoid all suspicon before surgury is because they wiLL try to stop me. I would end up leaving regardless and I know I would be emotionally strained throughout the whole journey then because of them.
Chinese guy your a genius. I think I found my reason along with backpacking. No pictures for a while because I am in the same city learning a new language. Not bad at all.
Oh OK, how old are you if I may ask? And yeah it is a big positive to have at least one family member in the know about your intended operation in case things went south. If I did plan on doing this operation, I would not disclose my intentions nor the fact that I had received this operation (I'm kinda the black sheep of the brood) for they would definitely be minducked by it all and don't want to cause d. Anyhow, whatever you decide to do, I wish you nothing but success and hope all goes well.

Go to the country of choice and travel for a week before surgery. Enjoy and take several months worth of photos as you tour.
I did exactly this last year.
Cheers
Lol! That is a great idea!
I'm starting to feel pissed off! What is wrong with body modification? Why should I hide it wanting it? Doing it? I changed my gravatar from a real pic of me as a newbie here on the advice of more experienced members but I'm reconsidering that decision now.
"You can't change how people treat you or what they say about you. All you can change is how you react to it." Ghandi.
All this angst about disguising CLL reminds me of being afraid of being beaten for being a swot at school! All we are trying to do is enhance ourselves!
I'm not going to hide it. I've told my family already plus one of my closest classmates in university. They think I'm bonkers but will support/except it.
The earlier they know and have to think about me doing LL, the better they will deal with it when it's done. About one month before I will have my LL, I'm going to talk about it in front of my class (it's a class of less than 30 ppl.).
I've learned this from my time in high school. There was an older girl who wanted to become a man. She was brave enough to talk about it in front of my biology-class.
She even talked to me separately, because she thought I wouldn't appear to be tolerant - me, a 160-guy *lol*
Anyway, nobody had made any fun of her over the coming year. Not even when she started to grow facial hair.
It really works. Nobody will call you out or talk about you behind your back when it's an open topic and no individual person will ever harass you if it has already been kind of approved by the masses.

That for me is the thorn in my side that would hinder me to not do LL. For example if you have to attend a funeral or something and you have a large gathering of family, friends in a single location and BAM! "Hmmmm, you, uh, got.....taller?" 😐 😓
you cant even tell your family members? O mean who know abt this except yourself. Its the worst thing if you have to keep this a secret even from your family....
