Looking a Little Lumpy Lately??

Okay, this is gonna seem pretty goofy but I just haaaad to bring it up. lol. After I got the good news of losing 8lbs for my first month of dieting I started really digging into the material here and addressing some of my other problems like keeping hydrated. I've been retaining a lot of water lately so I figured it was time to start filling up like crazy. Now, I hate water, period! I do have an amino acid powder that I drink in my water so that it makes it more attractive and I drink it. After a day of drinking tons of water, the water retention seemed to have relieved itself so no more problems there. But ......
After testing my skin to see how my water retention improved, not only did it fix itself but my legs looked a little skinnier. Then I went to put on my socks and what do I see? I saw what could only be described as little hilly lumps around my ankle that I never saw before. If you think of it in terms of weight loss, it looks like I started losing weight there and it left little uneven and flat lumps of fat that hasn't dissolved yet on the lower part of my legs. I then started looking in other places and it looks like my right arm has started showing the same pattern.
So, how many of you guys have noticed yourself getting "Lumpy" with your weight loss? lol

That will happen, unfortunatly we can't tell our body where to lose the weight from! I have a noticable "divot" in my left thigh above my knee. Eventually it will even out (I hope).0

I have no idea if this is legit or not, but I have the same thing in my ankles.....a friend told me they were veins that were more "plump" after increasing water intake. Said my veins were flat from dehydration and that's why they never showed up before. ??????0
