I was taking a shower tonight and accidentally poked myself in the belly. Feeling something hard, I felt a wisp of worry that maybe I'd developed a tumor or something, so I felt around a little more.

 

That hard stuff under layers of skin that used to contain an extra 150 lbs of fat?

 

Turns out it was abs.

Being able to feel my bones is constantly amazing to me.

omg i'm the same way!  Thought I was the only one!  Sometimes I lie in bed and just feel my ribs, with a true sense of wonder.

I am constantly feeling up my bones! 

I do it in bed, and I find myself doing it at random times, like when I'm shopping and standing here, I just start feeling all around! I wonder if people can tell I'm doing something strange??!

You know my underwire bra has been bothering me lately and I think it might be because I don't have fat padding under it now!

Totally understand. Two that sick out in my mind is the lump at the bottom center of the ribs, which I had never noticed before, heck couldn't notice the ribs either. They were hiding behind too much padding.Was told it was a normal part of the sternum. Second is when I could clearly see as well as feel both my pacemaker/defibrillator and the leads coming off of it.
