Default collar bones

My absolute favorite part on my body right now is my collar bones. I never really gave much thought to how sexy they can be on a person (maybe I'm just thrilled to have visible bones). I love how they tend to make you look lean when you've got on a shirt that falls below them and they are more pronounced. Ok, maybe I'm crazy. I've re-inducted as of Sunday and I'm trying to come up with all kinds of little motivators to stay away from the LC ice cream and nuts.

Another collar bone lover here too!! I have also tried to make sure to get shirts with a neckline that show them off too.

And I have gotten bad figuring out which lighting shows them the best. YEAh, it's going to take a while before I don't think anything of seeing them.

I love my collar bones! Whatever I can see of them. I am equally obsessed with my hip bones.

I am very top heavy, so my collar bones arent very pronounced, so when I wear shirts or dresses with low necklines I always put a little bit of a sheen on my collar bones and a hint of blush about a shade or 2 darker than my skin tone where it should be more hollowed on top and under which makes them stand out more.

My best friend pointed them out on me one day. I had never noticed them before (heck, I didn't know where they were under the fat). But when he mentioned it, i ran to the mirror and low and behold, I looked thin for the first time. WOO HOO Now the other day I just noticed my rib cage. I knew it was there, but never saw it. Oh, the joy of body parts!

LOL! I like the little bump bone on the outside of my wrists. That is one bone that I noticed becomes more defined with my weight loss.

I haven't found my collar bones yet. I know they're under there, I just haven't seen them yet. LOL
If I ever see my hip bones again I will surely be in heaven.
