When I was getting in the shower this morning, something caught my attention in the mirror. I've been able to see my collar bones for awhile, but it looked like bones a little lower, like on my chest. I thought maybe it was just the lighting, but then tonight I noticed it again. So I called hubby in the bathroom and asked him to look at my chest (which he was happy to oblige-- lol). All I said was do you see anything (didn't tell him what to look for) and he said, holy cow, you're ribs and sternum are showing. What a great feeling to see bones when 10 months ago I was wearing size 28 and weighed 332 pounds. Now I'm at 195 and size 16. Got about 70 pounds to go!! Can't imagine what I'll see then. :) Thanks for letting me share.

Good for you!     I keep waiting for my colar bones to show.  They are felt but not seen.  I just bought my 3rd pair of size 6 pants.  So, I figure I officially can wear a 6 now.  The first two pairs were a fluke.  lol  Anyway, what the heck?  I wanna see mine too.  I guess I am just built differently.  Enjoy the bones.  II know you worked hard to get to the point where you can see them.   I do have other bones I love.  How about those hip bones of mine that are sticking out?  Yay. 
My body does not define who I am but I am trying to define my body.  It  gets easier with every pound I drop.
