Secret Confession Time!

OMG!  This is the reason I love this board bc I always find out I am NOT the only one   I am constantly touching my clavicle bone...LOL.  I must say, it's good to know that they're there

Me too!  I'm so glad I made this post.  At least I'm not the only vain one :D

I have 2 sets of progress pictures.  The eventual 'public' ones and the NOT public ones.

I really wanted to contribute to this thread, but everyone posted what do - then I went into the bathroom to remove my earings...and I did IT! 

This is my secret obession... I always look at myself in profile and zero in on my stomach and butt   I do it just before I leave the mirror.  Like I have to keep checking - yes, I am a healthy weight & shape.

Thanks for making me stop and think.

I just had something happened a couple of days ago that falls into this. I have a daughter who is quite trim and slightly taller than me (6'2''). Oddly, we both wore a short sleeved v neck tshirt and a pair of jeans, and ponytails. Yep, totally doing the twin thing without meaning to. I was at my older daughter's apartment and was walking down the hallway without my glasses on. I look up, see my younger trim daughter and ask her some benign question. She scoots out from a totally different room wondering what I said. Turns out I saw my reflection in a mirror and thought it was her. Since I didn't have my glasses on I couldn't see all of my shrinkles, but was shocked and secretly happy that I was trim enough to have even made the mistake. 

HAHA! "Shrinkles"!  I LOVE IT!!!

I constantly touch my rib cage and my hip bones.

This one is weird. I have a huge mirror like the ones you see in hotels. I will put one of my dogs in front of me to make sure it isn't one of those mirrors that makes us look thinner. 

Well I covet one of those gel but cushions as my studio chair and also computer chair are too hard. No longer have my own built in butt pad. But some I have seen are way too wide.  Diane S

I don't have too many... I sometimes intentionally wear the pants I've out-grown (or out-lost? they used to fit but are now too big) even though I have smaller ones because it makes me secretly happy that the pants that used to be tight are so loose. 

I also stare at my thighs, which have always been my biggest area and are still huge but smaller than before.

And last, I sometimes lay on top of my husband in bed and ask him if it hurts less than before (LOL, I know this is weird.) He's super underweight so he often does this to me and it feels like I just have a heavy blanket on me!
