Body Part Appreciation/Wow Moments

OK Let's see. I'll start this one out today with a favorite body part. I am going to say my legs. Though the top thighs are flabby, the rest of them are skinny. I look taller, too in my opinion!! But I've been going to the tanning bed and they are just a darker shade of white than they were... the color was LITE WHITE BRITE. Now its just off white. lol

My favorite body part continues to be my new smile!!!! I got my permanent bridges and I love them even more than the temporary. I have had so many people tell me that there is a total change to my face. I have to believe that it is because I am no longer self conscious about my smile so my entire face is more relaxed. I know I smile a lot more now!!! My Wow moment was when I stopped by my son's home the other day. I was getting ready to leave and went into my 9 year old grandson's room to tell him bye. He got up to hug me and said, "Grandma, you've gotten skinnier!" Ah...out of the mouths of babes.

HIP BONES! I can find them now. Just this last week.

Congratulations Linda! Don't you just love discovering bones?

This is the first summer when I have felt comfortable enough to go to the tanning bed. I went at the end of summer last year for my late summer vacation to Florida... I didn't want to burn so I laid in a bed a few days before we left. It was a tight fit in the bed, but I managed. I think having darker skin makes you look smaller lol..but that is just my opinion. I had to have my driver's license renewed before my birthday..which meant new picture. They let me keep my old license... there is no comparison between my old license and my new one... two completely different looking people. I was like WOW lol

Ummmm - let me think about this one. I think my whole body is my favorite body part this week. I had two wow moments to make me say that (or WOW to me anyways). I actually got to take a bath yesterday. A real bath. I could not take a bath when I was larger because once I got down, it took an act in congress to get back up and I was to large so the water never covered my whole body in our "average" bathtub. And parts of my body would freeze sticking out of the water! Well, I actually took a bath yesterday and it was sooo lovely! Also, my body fat is now 32%. Normal is up to 33% so I am on the boderline of normal but at least it is normal. I can not believe it. I have a normal body fat range. Only 1/3 of me is now fat. The other 2/3 is probably hanging skin but at least it is not fat! Oh yeah- Go Misty Go Misty - Its Melindas Birthday but Go Misty! Misty
