stellabug321 51 Posted February 7, 2013 I was have a shower today and when I was shaving my legs I noticed that I had a back and a butt. I wasn't moving parts around, I wasn't kinking my neck and I surely wasn't fighting my rolls to shave my legs... I found it, lol I found that when I look behind me I don't have move folds and rolls, now I can see behind me straight down to my feet! I love it, still have some roll but not as much as before! Love love my sleeve:) Oh and I found that my hair no longer falls out at 7 months but find little pieces sticking up every where like I have static cling, and those are my little hairs growing back:) Just wanted to share my happiness:) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

kyllfalcon 768 Posted February 7, 2013 My first such stunning revelation was when I could finally paint my own toenails! The heavier I got, the farther away they seemed to move! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
stellabug321 51 Posted February 7, 2013 Yes that's the part of it I line too, I no longer have to ask my boyfriend or my daughter to paint my toes, I love that... I actually love the fact I can see my toes, this is awesome. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Susie in Lima 320 Posted February 8, 2013 I have noticed the same too! Love it! I love being able to use a regular sized towel to cover my body and not have to use a beach towel that barely fit! I also like that I dont fill up the whole bathtub too! SOOOO many good things about having this sleeve! Best thing I have done for myself!
