Human Anatomy 101…
OKay. So I was sitting here thinking…Trying to come up with a witty, charming, and oh so intellectual blog…But I fear I just dont have it in me today! I know you guys will be terribly disappointed!!
rn
So instead, I will share with you one of my more dorkier moments in life…
rn
So last night, I was laying on the floor doing my stomach crunches…I dont know if thats REALLY what they are called, or if I do them correctly, but I basically lay flat on the floor and lift my legs straight up using only my stomach muscles to do so…
rn
I have done this pretty much EVERY night for the last three and a half months…I can tell you, it hurts like heck, and my muscles are always sore the next day…I do four sets of 10 and then I will do four more and hold them for a count of 20…
rn
MAINLY, because I dont want any loose skin…
rn
I know, more than you ever could have wanted to know about my workout routine, huh??? 
rn
So back to the gist of the story. I am laying on the floor last night, frankly, exhausted and not really WANTING to lift my eyelids, let alone my damn legs…But I did, I did…
rn
And as I was doing it, just to kill time, I kind of felt my stomach…And lo and behold, I DO BELEIVE I HAVE A MUSCLE UNDERNEATH THE FAT?!?!?! I about died!!
rn
I called out frantically to the Husband to come and confirm my discovery…And yes, he felt it too…Just below the last layer of fat lies a nice muscle waiting to emerge!!!! WOO HOO!!!!! We did a happy dance of joy!!!!!!!!!
rn
Also, I found out that I have hip bones too!!! Two of them to be exact…Did you guys know that there are bones underneath the skin??? I dont think I have seen or felt mine since Jesus was a child, but I am happy to report, they do exist!!!
rn
So…I have a long way to go, for sure, but how fun to discover parts of your body you never knew existed!!! YAY!
rn
Here is hoping you all have your own discoveries very very soon…
rn
I LOVE YOU BUDDIES!!!!!!!

LOL that’s too funny and I know exactly what you mean.? Under this flappy fat skin we have a beautiful body just waiting to come out and be seen.
? Keep up the great work your doing.? I will have to start doing those stomach crunches sounds like a great idea.
lol!? Glad to hear you have muscles!?
? Isn’t it nice to know all that hard work is paying off?
Hot damn, and holy abs Batman!? Don’t you love little moments like that. The discovery of wrist bones and cheek bones and collar bones, oh my!?? Good for you gorgeous!
Congratulations on your new found body parts Dawn.. that’s very exciting!!!!!? I think for a man we discover ours as soon as our belly gets small enough to see our..? oh wait you get the point…? So when I made that discovery I thought I was on track!!!

You crack me up, thanks for making me smile with your blog. :)? Discovering all the beautiful parts of ourselves is such a great bonus of this weight-loss journey!

????
? What more can I say?
It is the little things in life.? Actually no this is huge wonderful great news.? I am so happy for you and I can not wait until I can say the same.
WAY TO GO!!!? IT DOES FEEL NICE TO KNOW WE ACTUALLY HAVE BONES.?
?? TAKE CARE. 
You are incredibly funny!! I loved your blog!!!? Yes, those are nice and rewarding discoveries indeed.? It’s always nice to see your hard work paying off!
Ok so I’m totally stealing that before Jesus was born line.? Because I love it! lol
I can totally relate to this.? I started out at 252 pounds.? I’d been carrying that around for 10 years and after I dropped 45 of the 50 that I’ve lost I started to notice my collar bone and my hips bones, even when I would do the *wink wink* with my husband he could even feel bones he hadn’t felt well….since before Jesus was born……and it felt good to hear him make mention of it.
You’re my idol today because you’ve passed the 200 mark and you manage to exercise each night.? I’m still struggling with both of these accomplishments.? Tonight when I sit to watch tv I’ll think of you and hopefully that will motivate my lazy behind to belly crunch too!?
Have a great day and we love you too…. xo
