    Don't focus on the fact that you haven't seen it in ten years. Focus on the fact that you can see it now. Stay positive and keep working toward your ultimate goal.

    Yeah, I know what you mean. I can now see the scar from my C-section. Pre-MFP, it was always hidden by my huge gut hanging down over it.

    I do not think I have ever seen mine. It will be a revelation when that happens. It is just starting to peek out now.

    This weekend I took my 5 year old daughter shopping (for her and me). While I was trying on some clothes, she asked me what the red lines were on my stomach. It was the first time that she had noticed them being there, where the fat wasn't covering them up.

    (The "lines" were from laparoscopies I had done 11 and 12 years ago. I myself hadn't seen them as fully in a number of years).

    Absolutely...Everything I see now, is not known to me or any one else.... I'm at my lowest since, I was 15 or 16yrs old and I'm 44 now. And I'm still chugging along in the downward direction. Enjoying every minute of the new me I discover.

    Enjoy your success - an tell Adam we all say hi and we're glad he's back!

    Wait, that's not going to remain hidden anymore? Oh crap! Someone hand me a cookie, quick!!! :laugh: Oh well, I suppose after having twins, that's just another battle scar I've earned. Ok, I'll put the cookie down and run another lap so that I can see it soon, too. You all have encouraged me.

    Congrats on your NSV. It feels good, doesn't it? My sweetie pointed out to me the other day that he can see definition in my abs and if I keep this up I may develop a six pack. What?!? Was he really talking to me? :smooched:
