mumof2boys 71 Posted February 13, 2008 Hi there thirties...I got a new haircut last night and when I got home, my boys wanted to take pictures. I couldn't believe that they were me. I actually looked "skinny". Tell me what you think...the first picture is my "before" picture (April 2007), the other two were last night. Sorry that they are a little blurry...my boys are 5 and 7...a little shaky taking pictures. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Sue Magoo 71 Posted February 13, 2008 Hi: You do have collar bones! You look great. I found my collar bones too. I'm melting from the head down. First I noticed that some of my chins were gone, then I noticed that I had collar bones, then I noticed that my boobs seem bigger because there's not as much fat under them. I'm hoping that I can lose some of this belly. Seems to be the worst part for me, the lower belly. Plastic surgery here I come......next year. Congratulations on your collar bones.

Wheetsin 714 Posted February 13, 2008 Back when I was in research mode, one of the things I saw consistently was very pronounced shoulder area features in all WLS patients. All that I saw pics of, anyway. This seems to be the first area we lose, but also where a huge difference is made. At this weight on my way up, my collar bones didn't protrude as much as they do now. I even have that little identation in my neck, and I was like 180 the last time I had that. Gotta <heart> collarbones! They make us look skinny from the neck up!!

mumof2boys 71 Posted February 14, 2008 Thanks guys...I appreciate all the kind words. I've been slacking on my diet and exercise the last two weeks because I have been sick. I need to jump on that treadmill and get things back on track. I want to get to a 100 pound loss before my one year bandiversary. I know I can do it. I only have 13 pounds to go and I have two and a half months to do it. However...I would LOVE to get there by my sons birthday (3/18). Wish me luck!!! Good luck to all of you too.
