I'd love to wear hooker boots but my calves are too big. Even when I was thin I had muscular 16 inch calves. Knee boots would never zip up over them. Boohiss!!

I think the tummy is always the last place to go. Especially after kids.

Awww poor Amy! My calves are just small enough to fit into MOST lace up knee high boots; zipper ones? Forgeddabouddit.

Tummies are hard, even without kids! SHeesh!~ The piece of clothing I wish to wear someday is a half shirt, and I want to flaunt perfect abs. Just once. Just for a little while I want a skinny tummy, then I can go back to having a normal one, LOL!

The saggy butt just can't be helped though. Ha!

Are you sure?!?! Is it hard for you to add gluteal muscle?

Thanks Twin, Amy, Sheryl, Claudia and anyone else I might've missed. You are all so sweet and wonderful. I sat here crying as I read all the nice things you all wrote about me. :)

I will get through this. I dug myself a pretty big hole over the past 7 years, and I've been trying to get out of it for almost a year now. Losing the weight is part of it, and dealing with the current financial and marital state is the other. Doing ok with the weightloss, but the other two are proving harder to climb out of..lol. :banghead:

Awwwww my heart goes out to you! I'll be by in a moment :beating:

Re: Big Calves My thighs are 23.75 inches around. Is that big for a chick who has a BMI of 23?

On no, I'm ALL ass. By saggy ass I meant my slacks are saggy in the ass because they're too big. I My nickname from my brothers growing up was "ghetto booty". And it's pretty damn tight too from all the up hill running.

Stairmasters also do the trick! I've been on those things since the early 90's leaning back to get my butt really tight and muscular.

My pants I bought about 2 months ago are just starting to get really saggy in the ass and that is a good thing, means I'm shrinking in size at least a bit but it would be nice if the damn scale would back that up.

Kimmers, have yourself a great day :waving:

Don't fret about the scale. At least you're getting smaller. I remember when I was thin and in awesome shape people couldn't believe I was 130lbs, they thought I weighed 15lbs less. It's all about how fit you are. I have seen women who weighed 110lbs that looked all flabby and out of shape, muffin tops and all. Once again, just a number.
 
Hey Kim. Long time, no see.

I just wanted to pop in and say hello. I know, I know, shame on me for going MIA, but sometimes life happens. I have kept up with my weight loss and I see you have, too. Great job. Well, I hope to be chatting with you more soon.
 
My calves are 14". Hmmm, I suppose I can't join the club for Big Calves....maybe? I dunno :rotflmao:

Hey Amy you're right on with the weight being a number!!! You know what? I think a lot of girls' weight can be in the legs. I know a girl who's 5'8" and 124 lbs, and she doesn't look anorexic, either--but her legs and ankles are really small-naturally. I'm an inch shorter and 25 pounds heavier but I don't look fat compared to her, then again I'm the one with the 24" thighs (I measured again and it's actually 24"). Hey, I'm happy with that, I like my legs! Everybody is different. YAY! :hurray:

It just depends on your height, build and fitness level. I have big legs and was embarrassed by them in school, but got over it years later. I used to work at a gym and the regular guys there used to call me "Legs" as a compliment. They were really muscular and cut. The smallest they have ever been is 23 inches. Before my back got fucked up, I could leg press 450lbs. My back and knees can't handle that kind of weight anymore.

My H had a flag football game last night, so after the gym I came home and just VEGGED OUT! I watched some pre recorded show, it was good, then I took a HOT shower, and got into bed, I watched about 30 minutes of Court TV's Forensic Files and crashed! I was sooooo tired! This morning my H got up and was really playful, I don't know what got into him, maybe it's due to me not being up when he got home last night, it was kind of cute!

Nothing really planned for this evening, at least not yet. Today is Oklahoma's 100th yr Centennial, pretty cool!! There is a huge parade, and tonight I guess Toby Keith, Carrie Underwood and several other OK singers are giving a concert, should be pretty good.

Not much else going on, I might take some recent pics this weekend and post some, would like to see if I can tell a difference in myself, hopefully NO CHIN hanging down, my H said it's gone, but pictures tell the real truth. I hope you all have a great rest of your day and an even better weekend.'
HUGS TO YOU ALL!
Kim:hurray:
 
Just found a tape measure at work and thought I would measure my calves and thighs for the hell of it, and below is what I am, now if my waist would cooporate I might be happy.

Thighs: 22.5 inches
Calves: 15.5 inches

I have super long legs, everyone tells me I'm all legs. LOL LOL OH and boobs! Can't forget those suckers! I'm broad shouldered too, so I look wide across the upper part, now that sucks!

LMAO!!!!! Not quite sure yet, I'm one of those spur of the moment kind of gals, hey there is a hockey game on Sunday, now that I won't miss. I LOVE My OKC BLAZERS. OH YEAH!!

OH crap, Saturday is college football day, YIKES, I must of had a brain cramp or something.

I'm totally flattered!!! :D
 
No, I had to work during that time, so CRAP I wasn't able to make it, but they have THOUSANDS of people there, it would have been hell getting into that area, so probably just watch it on TV tonight. I saw them prepping everything this morning for it, it looked like a blast.... The original Sooner who came out of the court house 100 years ago and put his gun up in the air and shot it and said "Oklahoma is now a state" well, his Grandson is reinacting that same scenario today, how awesome is that!! of course this time he will be using blanks, unlike his old grand dad. LOL LOL

I love parades! and anything fair related!
