I'd always suspected and I finally have physical proof. I was walking past the mirror and as I'm wont to do, paused and sucked in my belly to check my progress. To my complete surprise I actually saw the outline of my ribcage there! I was able to suck in my belly far enough so it showed the curve of the bone below the breasts.

Now I've still got a nice layer of fat and a three inch mommy pooch with flaring tiger stripes to go with it, but....wow. I honestly don't recall ever seeing it before, not even when I was younger. I'm still kinda stunned.

    Congratulations!! I read in a thread afew weeks back about a girl who went to the doctor for a lump on her hip and she was all scared. And the dr kind of chuckled and told her that was her hip bone! It's amazing the body parts we lose when we gain weight

    Congrats to you! That is an awesome feeling. I'm also discovering I have ribs too lol. They were just all covered up with fat before. Keep up the great work:)
