Do You Ever Find Yourself Doing Something Subconsciously?



Recommended Posts

What my question pretty much means, do you catch yourself doing something that you couldn't otherwise do before when you were heavier?

One example for me is constantly rubbing my newly discovered collar bones. I don't remember the last time I could see them. Now I catch myself poking and prodding and just generally being amazed I have these bones! Lol.

Another thing is when I first realized I did something when my friend came over. She was on the couch and as I was talking to her I sat down Indian style on my recliner, as if I've been able to do it all this time! I've never been able to sit like that comfortably, even on a spacious surface. It always felt like it strained my muscles or that I looked like an exploding sausage with everything hanging out. It was a great feeling to be able to do something so... normal... without thinking and not feeling exposed and uncomfortable.

How about you guys? I know it's a pretty random question, but I'm curious!

I caught myself rubbing my upper arms tonight and marveling at the muscle definition. And, your post just made me sit here and rub my collarbones for a few minutes, too! :)

Yeah, when I put my hands on my hips, I actually feel bones. It blows my mind everytime. I subconsciously do it when I am in front of the mirror a lot now.
