Collar bones. Most people don’t even think twice about them, other than to say perhaps, “hey those are cool.” But to someone who has lost a lot of weight, they’re fascinating. I’ve always looked at other people’s collar bones in envy. I mean, I knew I had them, but I have to admit I’d begun to doubt it.
For the past 15 years at least, I could barely feel them, let alone see them just by looking. I think of all the *perks* (and that tells you how sad I am that I consider this a perk) of losing weight, finally being able to see my collar bones has to be one of the best. I remember the feelings that went through me the very first time I saw a picture of myself in which they were clearly visible. If I knew how to dance, I would have done a happy dance.
Even though it has been a while since they first made their appearance, the people around me probably think I have some kind of chronic shoulder condition, because I find myself constantly touching them. I can’t keep my hands away from them.
If there is one thing that losing weight has taught me, it is to appreciate the little things. 
And for me, it will be my hip bones. I am completely shaped like a pear. Although you can not see my collar bone, I can definitely feel it by touching.
But my hips, no way! They are buried so deep it would take an entire crew of archaeologists to find those suckers! LOL
I’ll never forget reading the WW success story about a lady named Kim. She had lost over 200 pounds and was wearing her 21-year old daughter’s jeans in the picture.
One day Kim found a lump on her side and for weeks she was so scared because she thought she had cancer. Finally her husband told her it was her hip bone! LOL
I can’t wait to find my lump on my side! ;o)
