My Shrinking Boobs

Earlier this week I mentioned that I’ve lost 4 pounds since I bought my new treadmill and began using it while I blog. (Yes, even this entry.)

The scale showed my four pound loss, but for the life of me I couldn’t figure out where that weight came from. Until today when, since I was actually leaving the house, I put on a bra for the first time in days. Now I know darned well where the weight came from and, if I had my druthers, that would be the last place I’d lose it.

Oh, I’ve still got plenty to spare in the bust area. I’m not so mammoth-chested that I need bulk cable underwires but I’m not that far off, either.

I’ve always thought of great cleavage as the fat girl’s consolation prize, but what if it’s the first thing to go?

    I totally agree. the same thing happens to me. And the weight will not come off the places you desire most for like ever.

    Oh, great. So I’m going to be a flat-chested, big-bellied, huge-assed behemoth for the next 6 months?

    Shoot me.

    Shoot me now.

    I’m losing mostly from my arms and legs, and a little from my stomach, so now I look like the pig character from Chicken Little.

    *sigh*

    Kind of takes the wind out of the “I lost 65 pounds” sails a bit.

    I don’t watch my weight. Basically, I weigh what my work requires, and, since I am retired, my limit is my appetite (which isn’t very much.)

    But, ladies, my ex-step-daughter, who is a very beautiful and shapely woman (if she’d let me buy her a nose job), revealed to me that when she was diagnosed as anorexic, most of her weight loss was from her (well, how can I say this in a family channel?) breasts.

    She is now healthy (well, more or less; she is a vegetarian, and has anemia, which would be solved if she would eat some red meat), slim, and attractive. Her shape must be the envy of her colleagues. It doesn’t particularly attract me, but that’s because I was her step-father long ago. (And even though I am now an old bachelor, I do remember why girls are attractive.)

    So, you ladies will be attractive to your signifcant others now, and will be attractive to yourselves in a fairly short time. If I followed the diet of VK, I’d probably lose the ten pounds my doctor wants me to.

    If boobs are a chubby girl’s consolation prize, I lost out there, too. After the kids they’ve all but vanished. Now if I could take it off the tummy and place it on the girls — life would be good. But alas, not happening.

    jae’s last blog post..Thanks, God. I needed that.

    I keep wondering why someone doesn’t invent a corset that slims waists by lifting everything up to the chest.
