Lioness81970 0 Posted August 18, 2004 Hey everyone!!! I just realized something........I have a neck!!! I work for a Time Warner Cable and we are always having special things going on. Today we have a rep from Showtime come in and had a race car driver with her. The driver was signing autographs and taking pictures with employees. So I decided to take a picture with him. Well when I got the picture I compared it to my wedding picture that I have on my desk. Lo and behold.....I have a NECK and have discovered what shoulder blades are!!!! Isn't it the funniest things that you notice when you start to loose weight?? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

hagerteresa 3 Posted August 18, 2004 Isn't it amazing Lioness. LOL. I am still early in my banding progress but I always get amazed when I am sitting and see what might actually resemble knee caps instead of big round rolly lumps. I can definitely tell looser clothes but am always trying to see hints of thinning (besides my hair that is). Great job!!! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
New Hope 37 Posted August 18, 2004 Yeah, Carmen! Now you can buy some sexy tops to show that neck off! Wow, you've done an amazing job at weight loss! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
leatha_g 4 Posted August 18, 2004 Interesting. Body parts springing up all over the place. I was in the plane yesterday and kept looking down at my legs. They're longer!! I swear it! Of course, I'm 5ft tall, so they're still just 29 inches long, but I have longer legs!! amazing what that does for my ego.. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
MeganA 35 Posted August 18, 2004 I have a neck too! Since I discovered this, I've been buying necklaces like crazy. I've always wanted a neck!!! Megan Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
New Hope 37 Posted August 18, 2004 Leatha, will my legs really get longer? I won't have to get out the sewing machine and hem every pair I buy? You'll be posting a pic in stilettos next thing we know. And Teresa will be wearing mini skirts to show off her knee caps! I felt hardening on both sides of my band and thought something was wrong a few days ago. But it was ribs. I have ribs! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
nightingale2u 42 Posted August 18, 2004 WOO HOO CARMEN!!!!! It's easy to forget what's under there isn't it!!!! I am loving watching old body parts emerge! DArcy Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Alexandra 55 Posted August 18, 2004 I know, isn't it cool discovering body parts?? My wrists have a new dimension--they're no longer just round--and there's this lump on the outer edge of each one that my husband tells me is a bone. I think he's playing with my head. I can, however, frequently be found absently tapping my collarbone with my fingers. It's what I do instead of chewing my nails when I'm thinking. I love it!

Iluvharleys 15 Posted August 18, 2004 You are all doing so great! I love reading about your losses, and looking at your before and after pictures. Carmen - Who was the race car driver you took a picture with? Betty Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
claraluz 2 Posted August 18, 2004 A neck! I want one too! Nancy Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
leatha_g 4 Posted August 18, 2004 I have a thing for my collarbone too. lol. I also find myself feeling my shoulders. There are bones under there too and I can actually shave my legs or cut my toenails now without passing out cause my oxygen is cutoff. I can even look at the backs of my legs. I have scars back there I haven't seen since the 70's. lol. Amazing what can keep me entertained. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
