So there I was in the bathroom

checking myself out in the mirror...feeling some muscles, checking on the guns ect.

well 1, one of my employees caught me and laughed, I should probably fire him.

2, I know there are muscles underneath a protective coating

3, I think I am catching a terrible disease...narcissism.

I cant seem to walk by a mirror with out checking my self out at least 3 times, trying to find any more hints of weight loss.


Anyone else have this problem?

    Lol....No, but I do notice going by the mirror, and thinking, hey, my tummy definitely looks a bit flatter!

    Every time I walk by anything that might give off a reflection- heck, I even check out my shadow- I think "wow, my butt isn't sticking out like it used to!" So no, you are not alone. I find it motivating!

    I do that too! I'm constantly looking at how much my stomach sticks out less. In fact, I just did it when I went to the bathroom 5 minutes ago. It's a great feeling!

    This is too funny, I was doing that with my shadow yesterday waiting to tee off for golf. Thought, wow my shadow looks thinner. LOL

    Looking forward to getting to this point - I'm still too critical...lol. But yay for you - I think a healthy dose of narcissism is absolutely wonderful!

    What are these you speak of? Lol, I am not sure I have seen mine since I have been an adult, hope they are still in there somewhere!

    My random reflection in windows and such surprises me sometimes, lol. Wow, that's really me?!? Yep, that skinny chick is me. Sweet!

    Yep. And I drink about 100 oz of water plus daily, so I'm in the bathroom quite enough to check multiple times a day. I like my sexy back and my skinny knees and the creases where fat rolls used to be.... loving me some me... bat wings and all (my triceps are a littler slower to tone) ...LOL!!!
