...my ever-growing biceps in the shower.
It's great but weird -- feels like an unexpected guest or something!
Anyway, are there any "run-ins" like this that you've had with your body -- parts of it that you were so used to being one way for so long that it kind of throws you off and surprises you to discover it so differently one day, seemingly out of the blue?

I can reach all the way around my leg shaving in the shower again. I hadn't realized I had lost flexibility AND that my thigh was so huge until recently!0

Mine are less "run-ins" and more "missed encounters"! :laugh: Things like going to rest my hand or my drink on my belly, and having it slide off because my belly is so much smaller. Though the saddest was my cat- when he was a kitten he used to sleep up on my chest. Well he's gotten a LOT bigger and I've gotten so much smaller, but he still tries that and slides right off!0

I keep on doing a double take in the mirror in the morning because I keep on running into person thinner in the face and stomach, then I realize it's me!! :laugh:0

When you can scrub your own back without the help of a back scrubber because your arms/back aren't as fat anymore and you've become more flexible as a result. That's when I know I'm leaning out.0

I keep doing half squats and poking my quads. They're darling.0

Bony knees. Glad to see them but I now have to sleep with a pillow between them since I lost my padding.0

I am SO glad to see someone else has this issue, I thought I was the only one!0 -

Hipbones and collarbones! I was like... Holy cow, what are those... Wait.. I can see my collarbones?! I can feel my hipbones?!?! And then I promptly checked myself out in the mirror... Quite a bit... xD0

Where did the love handles and the gut go?
Hello chest and arms!
Ribs, yup they were there all the time, exciting.0 -

I can reach down and tie my own sneakers!!! I used to have to ask my daughter to come in and do it for me! Now I can tie them myself!! :blushing:0

I just mentioned to my hubby how shaving my legs has become more work, since I have to change direction around my new muscles...0

Nice!!
I love my arms and shoulders.
But most recently I have noticed a more curvaceous and firm hind quarters.
Thank you squats!! No more pancake butt!0 -
I'm starting to get more defined shoulders and upper arms. I'm swimming .... a lot. It's pretty awesome!0

A few things (clothes) I had put in a bin for my garage sale. Wore my "new" shorts and top today (that I had bought and almost instantly grew out of) and am sooo happy it didn't sell. :bigsmile:0

My stomach isn't flat, but I definitely feel it shrinking. Also, my elbows are bony and pointy.0
