Okay I wanna play!
This may not look like much to the untrained eye, but my whole life, through thin and thick, years of ballet lessons and waiting tables, I have never had calves. Cankles, yes. It's storming and I know the lighting is atrocious, but dammit, I see them!
Which reminds me yet again that I want to list some NSVs, as they are starting to come on fast and furious these days!
Even as I acknowledge that my body is an onion and the middle's coming off when it is darn good and ready,, there's a lot to celebrate! Off the top of my head:
* I can touch my toes.
* We take the giant hill at the cemetery the one known by the grounds crew as "The MFer."
* Noticeably more room in the shower.
* Skin looks great from all the water I am drinking.
* Double chin instead of triple.
* Gushy armpit fat reduced.
* No butt cleavage.
* Doggy has lost weight.
* Regularly getting 15k+ steps.
* Can fit into several goal outfits. Not for prime time yet, but once this belly gives in to the inevitable... stay tuned! (Erq, this means you.)
* WAYYYYY easier to get in and out of my roommate's low rider coupe.
* Moving my body is easier all around.
And dammit, I see calves!
