NEW favorite body part

I put this in the "thirties" room, but I'm curious what others who had surgery the same time as me say.

Okay, I always used to say my favorite body part was my eyes or hair. But, now that I'm losing weight, I want to focus on parts that weren't worth focusing on before. Now, my favorite body part is my legs. My least favorite (still) is my belly.

So, DO NOT SAY EYES, HAIR, OR ANYTHING ELSE THAT CAN'T BE IMPROVED FROM WEIGHT!!!

Be proud! What's your new favorite body part!!!???!?!??

Sorta close in timeframe of banding. My new Favorite body parts are my shoulders / abs / arms. My upper body responded well to working out & diet - the pear shape bottom of mine is in catch up mode.:rolleyes2:

I think I have great shoulders, back and upper arms and a nice long neck. I'm quite happy to bare a lot of my upper body. I'm thin through the waist too, so am more than happy to wear stretchy fitted things, or a bikini.

I like my hands too, they're elegant, long fingered and slender.

I love this thread! It's so refreshing to 'hear' the things people like/love about themselves rather than the usual complaints we all have about our bodies.

I've only been banded a few weeks, so I really don't have anything to add to this.

I just wanted to tell you all how proud of you I am!

Right now I would have to say my legs. 79 lbs ago I never showed my legs. I always wore pants or long skirts. I am really enjoying wearing capris and shorter skirts now.

I love my waist!!! Before starting to exercise, my waistline just showed out of nowhere. It makes me feel I have an hourglass figure.

Favourite new part of my body? Has to be the actual Band!! It's what made me realise how many other parts of my body I love now.

My arms you can actually see the veins now and my new found neck. I went from a size 19 neck to a 15 1/2 with probably another inch to go.

I just can't get over the bones I now feel under my knee. All of a sudden they showed up. I'm constantly rubbing them.
