Since surgery, I was wondering what I will look like. I mean, you see women with all kinds of shapes and forms, bottom heavy, top heavy, boyish figure, broad shoulders, broad hips, dainty, athletic -- I haven't been a normal weight adult, my figure went to shits around 16 or so, so I kept wondering what I will look like.

Same with my face - will my nose look too big if my face is shrunk to normal size? I have a weak chin with doesn't bode well for the overweight, but once I lose that fat, will it still look real weak or will it at least have a little bit of visible chin bone?

So, yesterday I was in the bathroom looking at myself with my "before jeans" - you know, the jeans I was wearing for the "before" picture that had that horrendous camel toe and that I couldn't sit down in and started to turn blue after a few minutes. I turned around in front of the mirror to see my body "profile" and turned a little more and there it was. My a$$.

And I realized, I never really saw my ass before in many many many years - at least not without the three door folding mirror things. Now I could just turn around and see it.

Not sure what shrunken body part allowed me to get this new view, but it was fun.

I still don't know what I will look like at goal weight, but I am pretty sure I'll have a bangin' ass in a few months, LOL!

Love it!

Haha thanks for the morning laugh! I completely understand what you are saying. I still have a long way to go but I am seeing parts of my body I have not seen in 20 years, or have never seen at all w/o that 3 way mirror thing. Unfortunately, I have always had a non existent butt, and losing weight will only increase that non existence. Oh well, better no butt, than one someone could rest a dinner tray on!

Good job on your loss!

I have to tell you that is the funniest thing I have read today...I just hope I have an a$$ when I am all done.

I think that having a great sense of humor going through this makes all the difference....

@Susanne - what an amazing NSV!!! LOL I bet you were just like... - at least that's how I do when I realize I'm doing something for the first time in a long time. Whoohooo!!!! Continue to rock that sleeve lady!!!

@ Jane - that's so funny you mention a booty that you can rest a plate on. I was talking to a lady this weekend that mentioned a butt and called it a "shelf". OMG -- I didn't know whether to laugh or cry!! LOL!! Now, she's the nicest lady so I know she meant no harm, in fact she said it that way to avoid just saying "fat butt"... haaa!!!

I've tooooooootally lost my butt ...but that's how I'm fitting into some size 8 jeans now...thank goodness I still have hips and thigh curves left lol

I still don't know what I will look like at goal weight, but I am pretty sure I'll have a bangin' ass in a few months, LOL!

How funny is that... I love it... can't wait to see some booty photos Suzanne! This sort of NSV really keep me going... I LOVE IT!!
