I'm at work... & the friend who introduced me to MFP (who has now dropped out in favour of weight watchers :frown: ... but she's still losing weight, so to each their own) walks into the room where I'm bent over filling the toner in the photocopier & she says... randomly... out of the blue... "Hey, you've got an *kitten*!"

So.... Context: I posted last week about putting on 7lbs in a couple of weeks after stepping up my exercise routine. I increased my free-weights, & started C->5k, & was mad because I wasn't seeign results. Well... other people apparently ARE....

What? :noway:

Apparently, I never used to have one. I had hips... fat legs... & no definition in between. Apparently, I have a curvy butt now. Umm... thanks... for.... randomly shouting that... in front of about 8 other people... in a busy bank branch. Some of those people... I don't even know. :blushing:

The funny thing about having an *kitten* for the first time? None of my bathing suits fit anymore. None. My old bikini from before I put ON all the weight I've just lost? It fell down the other day :bigsmile: (luckily BEFORE I went out in public) so now I need all new swimsuits. :ohwell:

But that's ok... because I have an *kitten*! Woo Hoo!
:flowerforyou:

    I was also buttless for most of my life. Unfortunately I grew a butt from overeating. It got so big it began rubbing on the rubber door molding to my car as I would get in and eventually wore right through the rubber.

    With my pounds lost here, my wife says I have lost my butt again. I'll have to hit the weight training again and make a new one!

    Hey, you've got an *kitten*!"

    Last time I said that to a woman at my work she totally took it the wrong way.

    Girl, that's a GOOD thing! It means you are losing body fat percentage and inches, and gaining muscle which will help you to keep losing weight and fat! congrats!

    Lol, Congrats on your workout booty!

    Couldn't believe when I was younger all I wanted was a lower profile *kitten* instead of my muscular bubble butt. Now I catch myself longingly checking out all the bubble butts on the late-teen/twenty-something's wishing I had it back again.

    I have come a long way from my "gluteal amnesia" aka "white girl *kitten*", though I still can't pass the Brazilian Butt Lift pencil test.

    I have a bit of a bubble butt, but only because I'm chubby. I'm afraid that if I lose the weight, I'll be a buttless wonder.
