Shelf Butt Blues

A newbie member mentioned something that got me thinking...yes, sometimes that happens! :P

I have what she called, a butt you could put a cup of coffee on. :rolleyes:

It's kind of personal, I know, but do any of you have this kind of butt? And what I really want to know, is Did you lose that "shelf" when you lost weight? It's my biggest fear that that won't go away.

In some circles having an apple bottom is a complement.

I think I feel a song coming....

Yep, yep definitely ....

I got my apple bottom jeans, boots with the fur. Something something looking at her.

Give my big booty a smack

Going low low low

Well lets see, I have a big butt & a nice smile. I guess I got it all.

Got your butt GF, shelved or not!

Hey I lost my butt but I got the smile! When I was younger my mom said she always hemmed my skirts 2 inches longer in the back because they would hike up from my big butt. See I was scarred as a child and doomed to have a big butt.

Im so glad it doesnt hurt to laugh anymore. You guys are hysterical!!! Laughter is good medicine fir sure!

I HAD junk in my trunk, but after losing 60 pounds it's all gone. All I'm left with is what looks like a deflated balloon:( My butt is now saggy on the outside AND inside (nobody told me about the inside saggy part, I discovered that one day when wiping myself after using the bathroom - sorry if it's tmi). I kinda sorta miss my plump butt, but I don't want to carry all of that around anymore. Also, for weeks when I would sit in my car I thought something was sticking out of the seat or that I was sitting on my keys or something, then I discovered that it was my boney butt that I was feeling! lol I never imagined that I would actually "feel" my bones ever again.

I know I will loose a lot of my boobs. It is the first place I loose. I am looking forward to a sexy bra next summer.

Ah, for me a sexy bra is one that condenses all my sagging deflated skin from the front and sides and armpits into front facing, perky boob-like illusions. Yay for weight loss in your fifties! (Still preferable to my old life by far.)

I do yoga so I CAN rest a cup on it, lol.
