I've found two negatives from major weight loss!

  • Popular Post

Ok these may just be mine but I've found two negatives from losing a large amount of weight. I've discovered both of these while taking a bath (figured I may as well set the scene) 1) My once plump butt is boney, and I'm talking sit down to shave my legs and it hurts boney. I feel like my skinny friends really dropped the ball on not telling me this! I'm going to have to seriously rethink my friendships since it's blatantly obviously they care nothing about my well being. 2) The weirdest one, shaving my underarms! It's like someone came and built the Grand Canyon under my arms! WTH happened under there?!! I swear if it were any deeper I would be shaving my lungs!! So odd! I have to literally pull contortionist moves to get everything shaved properly. Isn't November no shave month?! I think I'm going to join the men on that one because this shaving is for the birds!! I know you guys have some you could share too! Maybe give a girl a heads up before I forgo bathing all together. ;) I would include pictures but Alex would probably frown on that so use your imagination ;)

@@Bean80128 Oh don't even get me started on the sag bags! I went from a 40 DDD to a 32 mild D depending on how much I can stuff in a cup. It's sad :( My butt and boobs took of for greener pasture.

LMAO Love this thread! I too am noticing that I don't have a lot of cushion to sit on anymore and I can't sit for too long or it hurts. My hubby looked at me last night and said I have a flat butt now.... um..... yeah, just what I wanted to hear.

@@kranky813 My daughter said that to me last night when we were out jogging! I do so have a butt! It's not big but it's there! Guess I'm going to have to do stupid squats or lunges. Yikes!! I was unaware that I lived with the "butt monitors". How do you shut that alarm off?!

Just noticed that my boobs can out us blobs on well forget to say that the nipples are in constant conversation with my toes

Gotta left the arm way up over and behind your head like a yoga master to get to the pit and shave it.

The bony butt, the bony hips. And this morning I saw two weird growths between my neck and shoulders. What the heck are those things? OMG, they're clavicles!!!

One bad thing I came across this morning was that I don't have any fast food napkins in the center console of my car anymore. My nose was running and I didn't have any Kleenex in my purse. I reached for the usual stash of napkins in my center console and there weren't any! Guess I'll have to put some Kleenex in there for back up ????

OMG.... I snorted I was laughing so hard!!! I'm so happy that I'm not alone with the shaving problems, the bat wings and the clapping!!! My daughter just asked if I was ok cuz I was crying from laughing!!!????????????

Surgery 11/26/13 down 145 and stalled ????????????????

This website is so refreshing! We have armpits disappearing and "jina's" reappearing!! It's like a WL magic show in here today!

OMG LMAO....... YOU SERIOUSLY CRACK ME UP!!!!! I LOVE IT!!!! ???????????????????????????????? I do notice if I sit a long time it hurts & I need to try to readjust. However I would not yet say I am bony butt yet lol my Pitts..... Not caving in but I have noticed not as easy to shave in one or two swipes! Lol my jina ..... WOOO HOOOO I can look down and see it & soooo much easier to shave now!!!!! But I hate the shaving process & as soon as I am working again, I am getting Brazilian's again. I LOVED this post!!!! Thank you ladies ❤❤

@@Katie74 Impressive! Congratulations!!.........show off!! :)

I wish I'm still 40-50lbs from goal and extremely frustrated! I still see the old me in the mirror too!!

I can relate to quite a few of these!!! The bat wings clapping for sure! Oh and when I go braless my boobs clap for me too! It's a sad state of affairs on my chest! I don't mind the bony parts though, makes me feel skinny! ????
