I run my own business. I am the only employee, with the exception of Mrs. LittleBill, who maintains the books, and occasionally helps me schlep a heavy board around, or haul a piece of furniture to a customer. The doc gave me an extra long prognosis for recovery because of all the heavy lifting I do, so I planned to be off from work until after New Years for a couple of reasons. Today, since I have been recently cleared for some more action, I found myself in the shop eyeing up a piece of wood that has been sitting on the bench for a long time, waiting for my vision to become reality. I figured, why not? I got all my stuff together, and prepared to make art.

A real important part of "my stuff" is protective gear, and the biggest part of that is my air helmet. I hadn't worn in in over three months, as I had been working on stuff where it wasn't needed before surgery, and afterward, I just wasn't doing anything until today. I grabbed it off the shelf, stuck it on my haid, and...

Hey! This thing is loose! Now, loose is a relative term. For me, loose means it actually fits now. My hat size seems to have decreased a barely noticeable amount, but the real change was in my cheeks and jawline. My cheeks have shrunken considerably over the past three months, so the visor snaps down with authority now, instead of just making an effort. It actually felt kind of weird. But I'll take it. After I got over the weirdness of it, it was more comfortable than it has been in a long time, and that is great. I often wear this thing for hours at a time when I am working.

Congrats on the shrinking head!!!

I found that my glasses didn't fit due to the decrease in size of my bonce..

And I dropped two sizes in shoe...

It's stuff like this - stuff you don't think about - that makes up for all the sh*t!!!

Well done LittleHeadBill...

I have been constantly amazed at how much fat I had all over my body. My head has shrunk so much and I didn't even think I had that fat of a head. I didn't have much of a double chin etc. Always had a jaw line, but my actual head is so much smaller.

Keep losing you will be amazed where it all comes from.

I was not surprised about my cheeks. I was surprised about my noggin though. I moved the headband less than 1/16", but I did move it. And I didn't even get my hair cut (what little there is).
