Default I Have Ribs now!

Last night I was lying in bed and was having a hard time sleeping in the usual position and couldnt figure out what was wrong. I suddenly realized that it is because I have the remnants of a ribcage now and its no longer comfortable to sleep like that!!! I was so excited I couldnt fall asleep...I must say it is so cool to discover how my body is changing almost everyday! This has never happened to me on a diet before. I stand in disbelief/excitement in the mirror every morning

Have any of you guys had similar experiences? I want to hear your stories!

I think we can conclude that eating lots of ribs can help you find your own ribs. Isn't there a saying, you are what you eat?

Way to go with those ribs !! Just wait until you see those hip bones sticking out

When I was at target at the beginning of last year, I went to sit down on a train, and caught my tail bone on a piece of metal edging - it really hurt - that wouldn't have happened when I was overweight and had all that padding However, I would much much rather not have the padding!

I am constantly looking at my emerging hip bones, ribs, collarbones, and even my wrists and elbows! My superstructure is finally making an appearance.
