| Not a pretty site
I did some heavy house cleaning yesterday and my back is pretty sore. Today while in the shower I cranked up the hot water and put the jets on to pulse on my lower back. Ahhhhh that felt soooo good.
Reason for the post? OH yucka! While bending over so the water could hit my lower back I looked down and was really grossed out. Yes I have looked at my skin. I have pulled it and pushed it but this was bad.
The next time you are naked put your hands on your thighs and bend over. Women, not only are the girls hanging and look like a toilet paper tube but the arms fall forward, the belly and hips fall forward. And here I thought my arms were doing pretty good but not in this position. OMG!!!!!!!! I just couldn't get over the mess that I was seeing.
And yes I haven't seen Bill in a while so well hummmmmm.........you know. Teehee.
Let me know what you see/think.

Oh yeah I know what you mean. Not a pretty site but I try to stop and tell myself how much better I feel on the inside and on the outside but I do agree the naked
body after weightloss is not a pretty site at all.  I think Kenya said it once or maybe it was Kath but its like a melting candle.

Yep know exactly - hmmm its kind of like kneading dough, thats what I say about my belly area, it reminds me of bread dough........Ugggggg yep I know what you are talking about, it isn't so pretty bending over either, but I do look at it this way, 10 months ago I wouldn't have been able to bend over and see all that either!!

Kim, I totally agree, but I also know that I feel much better and healthier. I guess it's a trade off and hopefully, one day, I'll be able to take care of the excess skin problem. And as far as you seeing Bill, welllllllllllllllll, I'm sure he loves you for you!!!

You obviously failed to get the mirrors steamy enough. LOL
I read a post on Obesity Help where a lady said she went to the plastic surgeon for a consult and when he asked her what she wanted done, she got on his desk (naked)on all four's and said "Everything that is sagging!". Boy can I relate to that.
