I was walking through my office and I had and itch on my side. As I scratched it I realized that something was wrong. I went to the bathroom and pulled up my shirt expecting to see something lumpy. Seeing nothing, I rubbed the spot. Bumpy. I then rubbed the other side and it was bumpy too. Relief! I thought for a second and counted the bumps. I came up with 7, possibly 8 on each side evenly spaced. Then it hit me. I have ribs!!!

Love it! That's how I felt the first time I reached up to scratch the side of my neck and felt my collarbone! I had no idea what it was at first...lol

My bones are also sticking out, in a good way. Especially when I can lie down. We are on the road to good health and much smaller clothes!

I LOVE this! A couple weeks ago, I was doing rows at the gym, and I accidentally hit my hip bone. I had to stop and feel my bone. My trainer was like, "why are you stopping?" and I told him I had hit my hip bone. And I had to tell him I hadn't felt my hip bone in years! Normies don't get it...

That's wonderful, congratulations! I felt a lump between my breasts one day and thought to myself "oh no!" Then I realized it was my sternum sticking out and had a good laugh. First time since I was a teenager that I felt that bone!
