Feeling Boney !

[Cherry 71]

So here are some things I can really notice and am adjusting to:

My knees-I can see the bones again and I actually need to sleep with a small pillow between them!

I can also feel a hip bone finally (still under fat) but it's there! sleeping on my side is actually a little uncomfortable and I change sides frequently.

Sorry this one is crude but when I sit on the toilet, I immediately notice how much of my butt is gone and it feels great to fit on the seat (and much easier to wipe).

Here's another crude one: had sex with husband for first time in a while (he's been away for work) and it felt totally different when he was on top of me because my "fopa" is GONE!!! (Aka belly).

I'm totally with you on the boney knees. I had trouble sleeping because they felt annoying with the bones do close. I have a pillow there too.

I keep checking out my collar bone. I keep touching it to reassure myself it's actually there.

LOL you are so right Wait until winter....without that layer of fat you will be much colder !!! I even noticed when sitting on hard surfaces my butt bones hurt !

[Cherry 71]

Yeah I agree about the collar bone too - though my right side is destroyed and looks pretty ratty now that you can see it more.

I had not anticipated that my knee bones would hurt when I sleep from bumping. I cannot imagine that skinny people feel this though.

I know I said this before but the first time I felt my hip bones I thought it was a tumor... And honestly my collar bones feel gross to me. But I like the way they look... Lol

Last night my daughter was rubbing my back...and she said "Mom, you have shoulder bones back here!" I laughed and said "who knew!".... Then she proceeded to find my spine too! Over the weekend we went swimming and she noticed that my ankle bones "stick out" now....

It's pretty cool! And I noticed in the mirror that my collar bones are showing too! Wow, how wonderful it is to see/feel all of these bones finally!

I havent thought of the pillow for the knees...but it's a good idea!

But in the winter you can finally wear layers without looking and feeling like a 'blob'. Am I the only one who refuses to wear layers because they always ride up and expose the unlovely parts of me? I want to wear a bulky sweater, scarves, and a wool peacoat!

Yes my collar bones feel so weird, I'm constantly touching them....

I play with mine all the time too

I always wanted a peacoat and boots. My calves were always too huge for boots though. Maybe soon!

Me too!! And I love scarves but could never wear them cause, didn't have much of a neck.

[kristy3k 1,133]

speaking of not much of a neck... love wearing necklaces now because they don't look like a choker!!
