My feet don't fit me anymore
I was taking a relaxing bath after a hard day, and noticed that my feet seem to have grown, like the grinches heart, 10 sizes too big.

I would trade them in for a new pair, but seem to be stuck with them.

What part of your anatomy have you recently noticed has changed? For the better or not so-much-better?

1. My face
It can't take a shave anymore. I just get all cut up, no matter what method I go with.

I'd grow a beard, but man... I look like a dork with facial hair. Plus, I think some of them lil' bastards are gray.

2. I have an abnormally large head
Edited on Tue Dec-23-03 09:12 PM by breezygirl
With a lot of hair. Me and my brother got it from my dad.

edit: it's mostly the hair that bothers me. it used to be more normal, straight and all, but now it's gotten curly, crazy. :crazy:

4. ditto that with the hair, breezygirl
Edited on Tue Dec-23-03 09:29 PM by Skittles
my hair used to be straight but now it just curls in certain places and NEVER symmetrically. I decided to go on the offensive and at the grocery store I got two products:

"straight sexy hair" shampoo

and a BED HEAD product called CONTROL FREAK EXTRA STRENGTH. It's in a tall green spray can and I kid you not, on the back it says WITH ONE QUICK BLAST GET YOUR FREAKING HAIR AS STRAIGHT AS A BOARD. Results? mixed - some days it works great; on others, my hair seems to win the fight. But it IS better. :D

6. I'm a big head, too.
I wish I could wear my hair short, but when I do, my big-headedness becomes freakishly apparent. Oh well.

3. My boobs are shrinking
I have lost 35 to 40 pounds in the last 3 - 4 months. And still counting

I'm up to the closest hook on my bra and that sucker is still is wanting to creep up around my neck. This isn't working. So I ordered a new one that is smaller. Only one, cause I'm not sure if I'm done losing weight yet.

My pants are falling off my ... self. I got 1 new pair of jeans and a new belt. My belt was even too big!

Are you sorry you asked? :D

7. Sounds like happy celebration time
You're not trying to be a scarecrow are you?

I plan on eating an entire ham for xmas (along with the trimmings).

8. Are you within driving distance?
Ham sounds good. Very good

No, I'm not trying to be a scarecrow, LOL! I have another 20 to 30 pounds to go before I get into that territory.

9. My hair is thinning
All my adult life it's been super thick but grey. Now it's thinning on top. I know it's from stress. I've got to learn how to deal with stress. :(

13. My waist is a waste
From 32 to 39 in 2 years. I could open a men's clothing store with all the different sizes.

Just ate 16 oz. of chocolate chip cookies - can't understand why this is happening...
