Unfortunately I didn't take any before pictures, so of course I see no difference at all. My husband tells me though that he can most definitely FEEL a difference in my body. :blushing: I'm starting to see my collar bone and when I showered last night, I looked down and could see my toes!! :bigsmile: I've only lost 3 pounds in the past month, but I've lost a total of 9 1/2 inches and my body fat % is 7% lower! :drinker:




My weight and measurements from 3/29...

204 pounds
Waist - 39 inches
Belly button area - 42 inches
Hips - 46 inches
Neck - 15 inches

Weight and measurements as of today, 5/4...

201 pounds
Waist - 37 inches
Belly button area - 39 inches
Hips - 42 inches
Neck - 14 1/2

    That's a nice NSV. I just ran to the bathroom to see if my own had reappeared yet, but not quite. Soon, though!

    I recently just started noticing my collar bones for the first time in my life...I am so excited about it! Something so small, but so exciting... :)

    When I realized I had collar bones it was amazing. My daughter told me my neck was getting boney (after giving me a hug) So I checked it out in the mirror and sure enough, there they were.

    Keep up the good work!

    Me too! Me too! It's a great feeling, isn't it? :)

    I also just started feeling/seeing my hipbones again - YAY!

    I am obsessed with my collarbone. Mine is starting to stick out and I'm getting more definition in the chest region and I cannot stop admiring it in the mirror. The rest of me has a long way to go, but hey...we got collarbone!

    Oh yeah..Hip bones too!! I've just recently reached the point where I can start to feel them again. I forgot I had hip bones, it's been so long since I've been able to feel them. :laugh:

    That's awesome! :D My family thought I was weird when I first started noticing "new" bones protruding. My neck ones were first, then my collar bone and now my shoulder blades! I noticed I have bony hands and feet too lol! It feels great but apparently people look at you like your crazy when you talk about it too often. xD Although, I have an overly enthusiastic personality so.... it may be that. lol.
