Little Bo’Peep lost her neck, and doesn’t know where to find it.

Tuesday I was in the gym doing my running and walking and feeling good.  Tired, but good.  When I was done, I do what I always do and that’s walk by the mirror to get some water and check myself out.  I gotta check myself out because no one is gonna do it for me.  Anyway,  I thought, “Hmmm, you’re looking pretty good there Wonder Woman”.   I was wearing black, so that made me look slimmer, but that’s beside the point.  Anyway, while I tried to lift myself up, I noticed my neck was still missing.  Oh, there’s something there where it used to be.  But, it’s my neck.  It’s something attached to my chin and the base of my neck but it’s not my neck.  Where did it go?   There’s just fat!  That can’t be my neck, can it?

They have all kinds of exercises for your arms, your legs, your chest, your booty, abs, whatever.  But, not your neck.  I told my husband that and he told me to move my neck around and maybe that would help.  But, what if I did that?  Maybe that would only make the fat more firmer and then I

    Hmmm… I’ll check East Texas for your neck. Are there any defining marks that I need to look for? Although, I’m sure it’s there with you somewhere :) You just have to find where to look.

    Your husband’s idea of moving your neck sounds good to me. But hopefully as you loose weight your neck will slim down a bit too.

    I use to try to exercise my neck and chin!  I saw something on TV a long time ago about it. You kinda smile and then somehow you flex your mouth and turn into a frown.  I know, that’s not very good description.  It’s kinda hard to explain……I am not sure if it works, I never stick with it!  I does make my neck area feel sore….sounds kinda silly!!!  <— That’s what you look like when you do it!

    Maybe DH hid the neck all for himself and left you another problem area to work on.

    Hmmm, having the same problem! I hate it when I look in the side mirror of the car and I see a fat, flabby neck under my chin! I hope it goes away soon! It is one area I always forget to exercise!

    Okay…I can sooooooooooooo relate to this…

    My neck was MIA for YEARS…Went from three double chins right into my shoulders…

    I can now tell you though that my neck and color bones have started to emerge and I am down to about a 1/2 of a double chin…

    So there is HOPE…No exercises, you are correct, but the weight will leave there some day…HONEST…

    I am proof of the existence of non existent necks!!!

    I can so sympathize with this problem!  I have the same deal.  I do know of one exercise that really does help though.  My 7th grade PE teacher taught it to us.  It’s really simple too.  Lift your head up high, looking to the ceiling and stretch your lower lip up as far as it will go.  You can feel the tightening in your jaw and upper neck area.

    Great Job Wonder Woman!  (and a great picture!  Is that you?  You’re cute!)  I can relate to the neck issue!  I’ve had surgery on my neck four times for cancer related issues, and after the second surgery, I was put back a little crooked.  Not only do I have neck flab, but it’s lopsided!  I could hide it with bandages for awhile– then by cocking my head sideways— but in the end… now when I go in for surgeries– I pester the docs into making little adjustments as they sew me back up…  It has helped a little, but I’m still lopsided!  Leslie

    That’s funny because my neck fat and double chin seemed to be the first to go on me!!!  Maybe it’s because my mouth is always flopping so much!!!!

    I don’t know if this was meant to be funny WW, but you crack me up!!!!!    I’m positive you look fab, like the rest of your hot self.  But just in case, I’ll keep at eye out for the girl…….
