Enjoying Exploring my Anatomy!

[Dr-Patient 830]

It is so good to actually explore my body! (For all of you that think I'm talking about playing with myself, sorry to disappoint! :-))

BUT (and you don't have to be a surgeon to appreciate this), I am sooooo happy to be able to see and feel bones, veins, muscles, etc. But, yes, admitedly as a physician/surgeon, I do enjoy saying:

"Wow, I can really see my sternocleidomastoid muscle!" [the long muscle that appears at your neck when you turn your head].

"Wow, there's my 'anatomical snuff box,'" [Extend all your fingers as much as you can. really stretch the hand. Between your wrist and thumb, there are two "lines"--the longest, on top; the short one on the bottom. The space between them is what's called the 'asb'.]

When lying in bed, wow, my hip bone is "right there."

"Check out my 'supraclavicular fossa,'" [the indentation/dip just above your clavicle/collar bone] etc.

My ribs--I can feel them! Cool.

I even like seeing my veins; not varicose veins; I ony have one of those. But just seeing basic veins, because (to me) that means easy access if ever needed for medical purposes, like IVs, etc.

Granted, the boobs are droopy sacs, not voluptuous, bountiful beauties, as before, but, hey... I took pics beforehand.

Also, I think I'm back on track, thank God. I bounced up to ~193, after weeks of company, and eating stuff I shouldn't have, even if just a little at a time. I'm down to 188 again, and am focused again. Goal; ~160-170 by late spring, if that doesn't make me too skinny. Pray for me. Glad to see many doing so very well!!!

Whenever I touch my ribs or hip bones, or see my collar bones in a mirror, I get surprised. I had almost forgotten that I had bones, they were so hidden. It is taking me a while to get used to my new figure. When I was younger, I liked thinking of myself as voluptuous, but as I got older, I was just fat.

My pelvic bones are actually annoying me now. The jut out so far that I am always banging my arms on them. How is that a thing that is happening?!?!

Also, itching is a painful endeavor now. Like around my collar bones and jaw. Nails on bone is an uncomfortable sensation.

TMI Warning!!!! But the worst, by far, is this tendon that stretches from my crotchal region to my inner thigh. When my husband and I have sex and he's on top, his pelvic bone pokes that tendon and it HURTS!!!

@JamieLogical Ouch!! But that's a good reason for you to be on top, on the side, or who knows whatever else you can try!! have fun!!!!!!!!!!!! Whoop, whoop!

Jamie, I will say, that sometimes my hip bones do hurt when I lie on my side, so, yeah. I hear ya. There's no more cushion. But still, I'm happy to feel them.

Also that I can put my hand around my opposite wrist; in fact, a good many inches above my wrists. Just everything. Good changes.

My hip bones hurt too if I lay on one side too long, but I will take it. I love my hip bones. Not fat.
