Self-Indulgent Bonus Post

So the weight loss has slowed quite a bit recently, but I am still on the diet and I think my body composition is still shifting, it more slowly.

I have had some odd realisations about life as less chubby person, some of which have been quite a surprise to me:

  1. I feel the cold more. This is not a surprise as I have experienced this before and it's not such a big change, I just sweat a bit less and wear a sweater more often
  2. The sensation of washing myself is different in that my shoulders and back feel harder and more bony. I don't really like it to be honest, but I suppose it shouldn't come as a surprise
  3. I have bones in my back and bum that make it quite uncomfortable sitting on hard chairs
  4. It hurts more knocking against things like door frames and the floor when I fell off my bike
  5. I have very long bony hands with stupidly thin looking wrists
  6. The varicose veins on my legs stick out more which is not all that attractive
And finally, yes I am self obsessed!

    Does MK like the bony feel?
    Sounds a bit gruesome - I think I'll stay a bit chubby.

    Boney, bald, veiney, hard, lighter, uncomfortable, vulnerable.
    Why? Project with what purpose or function? Don't see the upside.
