These are things I have now. Or at least, am developing now. During my workout yesterday I wore shorts, and thus, really noticed my own gams for the first time in quite a while. As a side note, jimminies, I really need to shave. I'm not one to say, "take the winter off" from that particular task, but I have taken the week off, and I'm already sasquatching out. Yikes.
But hairy is not the point. The point is muscles. Who woulda guessed, I know, but apparently I've got some. I gotta say I was a little freaked out when I first noticed. Apparently, while the rest of my body is shrinking, my calves are growing (not sure how I feel about this) and reshaping (which is freaking fantabulous). You know that indent below the knee, above the major calf muscle? Well I do. Because I have one now. My calves are getting so ripped that without even flexing, some muscle definition can be seen. Not gonna lie, it's pretty intense.
Okay, so there's a CHANCE that my fears of looking like I "just ate me spinach" are a liiiiittle premature. On top of which, looking overly muscular is a problem I could really handle right about now. Because, really, if I'm going to have a hefty calf diameter, shouldn't it be because I'm so crazy crazy buff? That's what I thought.
Guess I forgot to mention this... but also, I'm finally starting to see some hip bones emerge too. Thems are my favorites :-)
Stories and gripings about exercise, dieting, life, and what it's been like learning to leave the love handles behind.
