I Got My Belly Button Pierced

I've had mine done since I was 14 after my mom encouraged me to get one to help with my self-confidence. I was an overweight child growing up but was able to shed all of my weight off when I was in middle school. But I still had trouble staying at a healthy weight and so I still felt insecure. 😿 Having a belly button piercing really did help with my self-confidence and motivated me to keep working out so I could still have the body for my piercing. I'm 18 now and I still have it. 😸 Even though I have my weight perfectly under control I still don't mind having a belly ring so I plan on keeping it for a long time. Plus, I still get a kick out of the reactions from people after they see that I have one since I'm such a huge bookworm. 😼 I guess me having a belly button ring doesn't live up to the nerdy stereotype. 😹
