Talking I have had a moment

This may seem totally silly to some but it has made a huge impact on me. As I was driving home today, I was doing the usual singing. Well I glanced out my window and as I looked back I noticed this hand and wrist on my steering wheel. It DID NOT LOOK LIKE MINE!!!!!!. I was in shock for about 20 minutes because my wrist was sooooooo thin... I could finally get my fingers around it...... This has totally made my day...... I can only wait for the rest of my body to follow../ I have lost weight in my shoulders and wrist so far. Now on to bigger and better things!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I know exactly what you mean. A year or so ago after I had lost about 70 pounds, I was walking up to a door that reflected my image back at me. I couldn't believe how skinny I looked from the front. From the side my belly still protrudes but from the front I look skinny. It made my day too and I still marvel to this day!

I remember the first time I noticed that if I wiggle my fingers I can see the tendons (I think) moving under the skin!

I had to take my rings off because they kepyt falling off -- then I went and had them all made 4 sizes smaller ( with a big smile on my face) the lady at the jewellers was in awe. Now they are a teeny bit big for me again! I love discovering bits of my body I didnt know I had ie . bones and tendons etc . atkins is one big discovery adventure after another

I'm so happy for you! Yes, I remember moments like this when you realize it is really happening! For me, it was times when I wasn't even focusing on it when something would suddenly make me aware of it. CONGRATULATIONS!!!! Sing away -- you deserve to be happy and joyful!
