Default Another bonus to weight loss

I've had problems with spider veins on my thighs for years, and I've had sclerotherapy a couple of times to get rid of them but new ones always came back.

Today I noticed that I hardly have any spider veins anymore (just a couple of tiny ones are left)! I think it is due to the weight loss and increased exercise (hence increased blood flow). Woo hoo!!

Has anyone else noticed something like this?

Yep, at my high weight I had some on my ankles and I thought they were so ugly and made me look so old. They are GONE!
