emily_0192010 168 Posted September 13, 2011 So I haven't had surgery yet (Monday!) but the other day I realized that I could wrap my fingers around both of my wrists... I haven't been able to do that for years!! I should also mention that I have pretty small hands lol. A lot of people talk about not having "cankels" anymore, well I am just excited that my wrists are getting small again! So yeah, odd I know, but really made me smile and I thought I would share Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Rootman 1,101 Posted September 13, 2011 Odd, I had the same NSV. I don't know why I've done it but I've done just that since I was a kid, just sit there and wrap my fingers around my wrist and see how far I could touch. I was able to just rub the tips of my thumb and middle finger together a few months ago, now I can just about reach the base of my thumbnail. Funny, I don't know anyone else that does this too.

wishes 125 Posted September 13, 2011 That's awesome, Em! Great NSV. Those bones keep showing up everywhere. It might be an epidemic! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
emily_0192010 168 Posted September 13, 2011 That's awesome, Em! Great NSV. Those bones keep showing up everywhere. It might be an epidemic! LOL!! I am hoping later down the road to be able to see my collarbones... I swear I have never seen them, ever. That is going to be a huge NSV for me if it happens.

I was thinking of that too...I was lucky enough to be able to lose 32lb before surgery but I can't really see a difference on myself, so being able to suddenly wrap my fingers around my wrist was the first "sign" other than the scale that I was losing. I just had to share! I am finally getting excited about monday I am going to do my best to put a post up afterwards and if I can't my mom said she would if I want her too.
