yes but my collar bones were the best. I am sure they were sticking out for a while before I noticed them popping out. I knew they were in me but didn't remember what I looked like with them pronounced

Great!!! For me it was my face and butt!

This made me laugh hysterically. My fingers no longer resemble breakfast sausage links - that was my first "not-so fat" thought.

what's that? is there a bone there? LOL it's been so long I'm afraid of areas I'll find! just kidding but it is weird when you can touch an area that was so hard to reach.

I lost the cushion in my butt... now I have a bony butt. Hurts to sit on the floor & play Barbie's with my grand daughter, so I sit on a pillow! But at least I can get on the floor & back up now! Yay for NSV's!!!!

definitely the pelvic bone!!

I'm starting to find my ribs and my hip bones. They are still covered in a thick layer of fat but at least they are detectable now!

Pelvic Bone for me and being able to prop my foot up on my dresser and put my socks on without gasping for air

Silly as it sounds, I stared at my shoulders for a good ten minutes the other day. They're better defined now and it when I wear a shirt it doesn't look like I shoved pillows up my sleeves.

I stood in the shower today washing my legs and i couldn't get over my thighs...or lack thereof. I can't remember the last time I though my thighs looked good!

i'm still preop, but i thought i'd share my goal: pick up a pencil off the floor w/o that move...you know the one, the sitting splits or the wobble to the left so i can bend far enough to pick it up...yeah...that's my goal. I don't have a goal weight, I just want to pick up a pencil.

Yes it's great being able to bend overand tie my shoes without coming up red in the face, feeling my bones I haven't felt in so many years and not being so self conscience when my husband throws his arm over my waist...bc now I have one. My ladies even look better not having to compete with my tummy ;) It's an awesome feeling.
