  • who in here has 3 waists?

    Hello all


    I know you are wondering how the heck does anybody gets 3 waists well when I was younger 13 and my weight was 80 lbs my grandmother who was very old fashioned decided to get me a "girdle" because young women wore them ..as I grew up and gained weight the "handles" would spill over the girdle top she would get me a taller one and when I would gain weight again same thing and now I have this 3 waists lol you can see them in the photo of the left..the first one is almost gone, the second one getting smaller and then you have the big donut at the end...I am wondering if my body will go back to just one straight line or will have the 3 waists marks always?

    I am curious to know about this as well. I would have never thought to ask. I also have the 3 waist thing going on and would like to have no evidence of it at all once I reach goal.

        I always called that my second set of boobs and my baby pooch. I had boobs under my boobs. Now that I have lost the weight the second set of boobs are gone and the baby pooch is getting flatter.

          I have Boobs, Belly, Baby Pooch, Waist. Boobs are getting smaller (especially side boob), belly is getting smaller, baby pooch is getting smaller (though I know it won't ever completely retreat but I can live with that), and waist that I don't even take measurements from because I wear my pants between my baby pooch and belly.

          Mini Goals:
          Goal 1 - 10% (September 13th, 2009)
          Goal 2 - Pre-Pregnancy Weight with 2nd Child (September 27th, 2009)

            lol goodness they never taught me any of this in biology class haha...btw the side boob! ugh what are you doing to get rid of that? I hate it I have big boobs and with the side boob just makes me look weird...I had a breast reduction and I asked the doctor if he was going to reduce that and he told me that was sucking fat out not reducing the breast prfff it is part of the boob family!

              I don't think the girdle caused it. It's just part of gaining weight. Most people I know (including myself) that are over weight have at least 2 or 3 rolls.

              My bottom one has flattened out alot but there's a lot of hanging skin, my top one looks worse now than before I think because it's more noticeable. It doesn't seem to be shrinking like it should. It's bound to leave sooner or later.

                I have several waists too - but they are all getting smaller. My "side boobs" are WAY smaller (but so are the real ones). It will be interesting to see what shape I will end up with...I'm not counting on 36-24-36, but I'm hoping for something closer to an hourglass than the pillsbury dough boy!

                  I hope I go back to hourglass too, my boobs used to be DD's they are still D's even after the reduction, he did not wanted to take too much out because when I lost weight I would lose boob also..I was upset I wanted an A cup! but I guess if I lose more boob that will be ok with me...I know that right now my boobs and my hips are about 10" bigger than my waist which for what I read is considered an hour glass shape..unless you are JLo and have a 26 waist with a 40" hips or butt! lol

                        I lost my side boobs right away. I don't have any extra on the sides anymore. Still have a DD in the front though which is ok by me. I had no chest when I got married I've grown to like them and would prefer if they stick around.

                            Yeah I have some issues with mine, seems like the more weight I lose the more problems they cause. Guess before they were being supported by my belly LOL

                            But so far nothing bad enough to make me get a reduction.
