Well, I have no loose skin (from the waist up). Because I was always bottom heavy, my thighs are where, well, let's say that's why I wear Spanx. They hold you in real good.

From the waist up, I look perfectly fine. I did lose breast tissue with the weight loss (but not as much as when I lost 85 lbs when I was 24 years old), I was flatter than a pancake. I believe I was a 38 B at the age of 24. But then the weight came back. But now that it's taken me 10 years to lose all this weight, I really did think that I would be back to the 38B. I look like a 38 B.

When I was sitting on my friend's porch, on the way back from buying this bra, I pulled it out, and they all said: 'Melody, that won't fit you, it's too big, it's too big around, and it's too big in the cup".

Well, they were right about cup but they were wrong about it fitting me all the way around.

I guess I'm destined to be one of those people who are big boned. Dense Bones. Whatever.

And the kicker is I just looked at the packaging on the bra I just bought.

It's a plus size bra. I haven't worn any plus sizes since I lost my weight.

Kind of a thorn in my head if you get my drift.

So now I am determined. Let's see how much water I can drink today.

Yesterday, it was 98 outside. I cannot tell you what I drank. Holy cow. It was like my body was in the desert.

Today I shall try my PETALS.

Never worn them in my life.

This should be interesting.
