    I'm obese, like 50 lbs over the high end of healthy BMI, and my ribs stick out and flare out weirdly when lying down. It's normal and you're fixating.

    My rib cage is HUGE!!! Most of the women in my family have the same thing. I actually asked the doctor about it and he smirked and said I could "remove a couple of ribs". LOLOL. Anyway - I live with it.... :/

    @emmaling142 If you want to talk about weird ribcages try having scoliosis. My hips are lopsided and my left ribs stick out weird...all the time, not just when I lay down. Get over it at move on with your life! Don't waste time worrying about things you can't control.3wequ2vd6x97.jpg

    Have you just recently lost weight? The only reason I ask is because I had been overweight for a very long time and when I finally hit a normal weight range I was surprised by the look and feel of my body...speaking of bones and all....

    I'm in a normal bmi range now but when lying down have the rib cage thing going on, and the most obnoxious bikini bridge (I think that's what the jutting hip bones are called). I was fixated on all that for a long time because it was so alien to me. Now I see that it's just my bone structure at a normal weight.

    Everyone has what you're showing though. For what it's worth you look just fine.
