    So many pokey bones. I'm not loving that, but I'm dealing with it. One great thing is that I feel really fit and strong since I've been exercising regularly. Love that feeling!

I can finally see that I have a wrist bone, an ankle bone and knee caps!

Sitting on hard chairs is uncomfortable with less padding! Had to buy char pads for the kitchen chairs! Knees press uncomfortable together when side sleeping. Seeing ankles, wrist, collar and hip bones is strange but wonderful. Had a really hard time after the winter break from riding my motorcycle last year when I found my center of gravity had shifted. Kept falling over with my bike in parking lots. That part has gotten better tho!

I am one of thoe people who lose from the top down, the feet up, and belly last. With about twenty pounds to go, I feel like a pencil that has a life saver around the middle. Oh well, when I get two my two year surgiversary, my insurance will pay for a panniculectomy.

What kind of surgery is that

Panniculectomy is a skin surgery that removes the excess belly skin below the belly button. Many insurance companies will cover it if you are having problems like rashes from the excess skin.
