Good question!

I love that I can once again cross my legs.

That I no longer feel "rolls" when I run my hand down my back to my hips.

That I can see my curves.

That I can shop at "regular" stores.

That I can power walk 3 miles and then go to work.

etc., etc., etc. ... LOVE MY BAND!

I am just over 1/2 way but losing 118lbs has made a pretty big difference! I love that I dont need a seat belt extender on an air plane. I love the way my hips are slimming down and there is no fat hanging over my bra anymore but most of all I love the definition I have found again in my face. :rolleyes: My collar bone is starting to re- surface. Its been in hiding since 1985..... I have 89 lbs to go so I will be seeing her soon.

I love all the bones that I never knew I had!

I love that I no longer have to ask for a table when I go out....I fit in the booth!

I love the reflection in the mirror, especially when I stand sideways!

I love that I can shop in regular stores and not even have try anything on...I can just buy and know it will fit!

But thing I love the most is that my thighs no longer rub together when I walk!

When I look in the mirror, I love my shoulders and arms, my collarbones. I think I look very toned, very fit, but also slim and feminine, no sign of Madonna freak arms but my upper body is way more toned and slender than most people's, even people that are normal weight - simply due to the fact that I'm a classic pear shape and lost a lot of weight very easily from the upper body. When I see a photo, I look freaking skeletal, you just see what you want to see when you look in the mirror, dont you? Nonetheless, my head is goign to remain firmly in the sand and I am going to continue seeing what I want to see and ignoring the photographic evidence!

I love that I can move so much more easily now, exercise is an absolute joy and I really really really love that I can wear whatever is currently in fashion and that size 10 shoes will alwasy be guaranteed to fit now, and often I only need a 9. I love that a special night out is not cause of panic and tantrums, I can choose from some lovely dresses I already own or simply buy another one, in any store I fancy. Without having to shop for Shapewear and other ugly foundation garments first - I can match my nice dress to some very teeny tiny lingerie!

I love the fact that the hotel towel met at the edges this past weekend when we went to California. I love that instead of a red mark around my stomach caused by my waistband that when walking around the house my shorts had gotten so big that they just fell down to my ankles....lol time for some new clothes.

I love this hourglass shape that I have back.

I'm wearing Jeans again instead of Swets.

I look in the Mirror, and see that I am actually getting smaller..

My older cloths are falling off of me..

I'm so use to wearing elastic slacks, that all pants, (even Jeans) I can take off without unbuttoning.

I found that out going to the bathroom one time.. Couldn't believe it.)

But I love myself for hanging in there ! It makes a difference.

I love not having to move sideways inorder to buckle my seat belt in my car. I love that my daughter can wrap her arms all the way around me. I love exercising and I love the way my curves are looking!

      I changed my profile image to a molecule of protein. Why? Because I am certain that it saved my life.

      Two years out. Lost 120 , regained 5 lbs. Recently has a bout of Norovirus, lost 7 pounds in two days. Now my stomach feels like it did right after my surgery. Sore, sensitive to even water.  Anyone out there have a similar experience?

      April Surgery
      Am I the only struggling to get weight down. I started with weight of 297 and now im 280 but seem to not lose more weight. My nutrtionist told me not to worry about the pounds because I might still be losing inches. However, I do not really see much of a difference is this happen to any of you, if so any tips?
      Thanks

      Well recovering from gallbladder removal was a lot like recovering from the modified duodenal switch surgery, twice in 4 months yay 🥳😭. I'm having to battle cravings for everything i shouldn't have, on top of trying to figure out what happens after i eat something. Sigh, let me fast forward a couple of months when everyday isn't a constant battle and i can function like a normal person again! 😞
