What's the weirdest place you've lost weight?
Good morning all!
As the title of this post suggest, todays topic deals with weight loss in weird places!
We all know we lose weight around our waist line, or it shows in your face. Heck, we even lose weight in the bottom of our feet (that's why I'm shorter, the fat in my feet are gone...LOL!)Those are the obvious places. But what about other places? Okay, get your mind out of the gutter...
I'm talking about...
...your mouth! That's right, the buccal cavity, the first portion of the alimentary canal that receives food, the area your teeth are attached to.
Now, here's the story on how I figured this out.
When I come home from work, the first thing I usually do is remove my upper partial. Right now you're saying to yourself, "I didn't;t know Scott had false teeth!" Yeah, I've had them for about 14 years. I had to get them after eating a piece of microwaved garlic bread, but that's another story for another day!
So, the first thing I do daily upon returning to the old homestead is to remove my teeth! My normal routine is to place them in a cup in the bathroom. Occasionally I will leave them on my computer desk for a short time. OK, I'll put them there and forget about them...duh! Well on Saturday, that's exactly what happened.
All I can say is, she is still living, and no animals were hurt in the telling of this story! The last thing I need is the ASPCA breathing down my neck for beating a helpless little puppy!
Now, back to the topic. When I went on Monday to purchase a new upper partial, the dentist looked and my old teeth, and then my new ones and said...you lost a lot of weight in you dental region. Have you been sick lately? Which opened the door to discuss weight loss surgery!
So, when the day is done, what is the weirdest place you have lost weight?
I posted a little of this on Face book the other day and a friend of mine responded..."Scott, did your dog really chew up your falsies? Teeth, I mean? LOL. You're supposed to chew with them, not have the dog chew on them!"
"Falsies"? That just brings up another place I've lost weight...moobs!
Ciao!

Ain't she cute?
After placing them on my desk, I went to make a cup of coffee. When I returned, what did I see? My terroristic little black chihuahua sitting very lady like in my computer chair. Bottom down, front paws placed on the tabletop, chewing! Even though she was sitting very ladylike, she looked more like a school of piranha feasting on a cow that accidentally dropped in the river!

I never had fat fingers, but my fingers have shrunk and now my tungsten carbide (unsizable) wedding ring doesn't fit. I want my fat fingers back, but I'd like to keep the rest how it currently is.

I've heard that before - I guess people who have partials or dentures have to have them refitted if they gain or lose a lot of weight. Who'd have thought?
My bumm has always been flat flat flat. But apparently I've lost weight there, because it's getting painful to sit on a hard chair now and it never was, before.

Tee hee! Lost weight in your GUMS?? I never would have thought of that!
I'm with Erika--my feet are getting smaller. Shoes that hurt before from being tight are all flippity floppity now. Freaky. Fortunately, I usually wear sneakers (even with my skirts--how attractive!) to encourage walking. Those, at least, can be tightened.
I buy "drag queen shoes," because my feet are so wide. I can fit into 8s with wide widths, but with regular widths have to go as high as a 10. It will be interesting to see where my feet end up! HA!
As for Kenny's skinny fingers, maybe he can get some fat injected into his ring finger to hold the ring in place!
