Re: RE: Did I REALLY carry that much around?

I know exactly what you guys mean..... Everytime I lose a pound, and think,

" a pound isn't much " I open the fridge and pick up my pound of butter, hold

it, feel its weight, and see it's size, and think to myself..... " oh ya, a

pound is ALOT of BUTTER!! For those of you that don't see it on the scale,

think about this..... When you aren't losing on the scale you are losing

inches, so imagine that pound of butter spread on you with a knife.( I just

know *grin* someone is gonna make a naughty fantasy outta this LOL) Anyway,

even though you don't see your jeans get that loose, all at once, what I

have found is that I am loosing in unmeasureable places....for

instance....my bra slip fell down on my shoulder (every had that problem)

reached inside to pull it up and thought, " oh my god, i can feel my colar

bone again? " or sitting here at the pc one day, i noticed I don't have that

roll of fat that usually hangs over my bra just to the outside of my

shoulder blades in the back.... ladies you KNOW what I'm talkin

about!!LOL... Not to mention my face has gotten so much thinner... now I am

not saying the jean size hasnt gone down. But sometimes we need to pay

attention to the little things too, because it is happening, even when the

biggies aren't showing up as fast as we like..... Take care All.........
