When did you find your collar bones?

I'm really looking forward to having nice defined collar bones (as well as a much smaller butt!). Got a long way to go - but just out of interest - what weight were you at when you re-discovered yours?

  • I remember the exact day. I was in the shower, and caught sight of my reflection in the bathroom mirror. I thought I had a dirty mark, right in the centre of my chest/neck and then I realised it was the shadow of emerging collar bones! I hadn't even realised I'd 'lost' them until that day, and now their full length is on show and I just LOVE them. I think they're super beautiful and am planning micro dermals on them in a couple of months, when I reach target ♥

    EDIT: Sorry, I got all excited there, and didn't answer your question lol I could check back my records, but I reckon I was probably still a good 210-220 when I got my first glimpse :) I'm 175 now :)

    I'm with you! I think collar bones are lovely! I don't think I've seen mine since I was a child though so I'm really looking forward to meeting them!

    I never thought I had one until I looked at pictures. To be honest, it was a bizarre feeling, haha.

    I always had them. I have got the apple figure; very small above, small boobs, small waist. And then: BAM big belly, big butt. Hahaha.

    I've always had them, all my weight's on my hips and thighs.

    Mine reappeared fairly quickly, as I carry most of my weight around my middle. I'm currently in the process of rediscovering my ribcage, and hope one day to have hipbones! :laugh:

    ^^^^That made me smile and yes I was just thinking about this yesterday. Its funny what you start to discover about yourself as those layers come off. I actually have bigger hip bones than I thought. Well, not really its just that I can feel and see them now =)

    I can already see my collar bones and I haven't lost weight yet.

    Even some thin people can't see it, it depends on the body structure.

    I haven't found my collar bones yet but I have found jaw line!!! I keep doing a double take in the mirror to make sure it is still there!

    I was noticing one day how thin my neck was... then I felt these two bumps at the base - the joint of my collar bone. Then I felt it w/out having to push down. You still can't quite see it (only if I hunch) but they are starting to get more and more noticeable.

    Ummm maybe somewhere in the 180's? I'm very pear shaped, I'm 159 now and have defined, almost "bony" looking collarbones all the way to my shoulders.

    I am looking forward to seeing mine as well! :) My sister is a little farther ahead in her weight loss, and hers have appeared! :)

    I haven't seen my collar bones since high school lol....I would say at about 20-30 pound weight loss they popped out. I have noticed the more I lose the more they stick out. I'm down 65 pounds and they are there all the time now LOL. Isn't it funny how the littlest things excite us LOL

    This!

    Me too! I was hoping they would emerge and look stunning, but alas...after 31 pounds...nothing...and I'm under my goal weight now, getting ready to maintain...sigh...but I am incredibly happy with the way my whole body looks!!

    Mine stick out quite a bit even when I'm pretty fat. I'm just a bony person I guess haha. Mine start showing once I'm out of the obese range. They are pretty defined right now at just over 140 along with my hip bones and ribs from the back. Probably my favorite body part :)

    I just told my husband over the weekend how I can finally start to tell I even have a collar bone again if I have my hands on my hips. I was soooo excited - he was amused & said he never even paid attention to a collar bone on people! For me, it will be a huge accomplishment - I can't wait to have my jewelry lay nicely again around my neck!

    I never really thought of collar bones until someone at work mentioned that she could see mine! I'm 5'9, and I'd say I was about 180 when she made the comment. It's kind of cool!

    I love seeing my collar bones! I know I am on track when I can see them. I think it was at my 7 or 8 lbs lost mark. I am in a plateau right now, but the inches are still coming off.

    Not for ages! My starting weight was 16 stone (224lb), and only when I got to about 11.5 stone (161lb) did I notice my collarbones. Now they're quite prominent, despite me not being particularly thin, and I am quite partial to showing them off :)

    I've never really been able to see mine which is rather disappointing. Even at my thinnest they were always hiding. Hmpf! :-(
  • I'm 5'6", I notice them when I got into the 160s. It's funny how some places get boney and some places still have so much fat. I can see my ribs, but I'm nowhere close to seeing my hip bones!
