Ladies: The Body differences when you are slimmer

There are a lot of changes I have noticed about my body since I have become slimmer. Some of them have freaked me out, but most of them I have become comfortable with. Feeling and seeing my ribs and my hip bones is still weird, but it is becoming normalized. If you have thin friends these things are normal to them and they take them for granted, so it isn't something you have a lot of people you can discuss it with.

This blog post hits on 5 differences.

  • Belly Button
  • Hips
  • Ribcage
  • Collarbone
  • Sternum

This is one of those annoying slide shows but it hits on 15 points.

Thanks! It is so nice to talk to people who really understand!


I just had surgery in Aug, but my best friend had it about 18 months ago. The other day, we were on Skype and I was like...OMG, your collar bones! I never noticed them before...

I looked at the slide show, and some of the photos didn’t match the description. The photo taken from an elevated level and down at the woman showed a protruding collar bone and fake breasts. Not a photo of a healthy woman.

My boobs aren't fake at all and they look just like that in a good bra, that is what a bra is supposed to do for you if you have a good one. The picture you are talking about is about breasts not collarbone. That picture wasn't there in the original post months ago, but it still all natural, even if it is at a weird angle.

My collar bone looks even more pronounced than the woman in picture because I have a big frame with wideish shoulders. If I was stretching all my skin and bones out by taking a picture with my hands above my head, I would look like Skeletor.

That picture is weird, but there is nothing fake or emaciated about it.

Hi!

I apologize if I offended you. That wasn’t my intention. Picture 15 in the slide show just didn’t seem like a healthy body in my view. It could certainly be the angle or pose. The shape of the breast also appeared to be implants. That doesn’t really matter, however.

Again, my apologies.
