Fun thread. You know you lost weight when

You have to get new shoes because they are to wide for the feet.

Your wedding ring falls off your finger.

When you spend your lunch hour exploring downtown rather than eating

Your wedding ring falls off your finger.

I agree! One of my goals was to be able to someday wear my weeding ring again. After 3 months and 44 lbs I am able to wear it and it is loose!

I am loving this sleeve!

Your tummy is no longer bigger than your boobs (wohoo) and the hair tie on your wrist doesn't feel like it's going to cut off circulation... it's LOOSE!

When you take the pizza stone out of the oven!

You know you are losing weight when your 12 year old son tells you to pull up your pants you are sagging to much for a mom!

and

You know you are losing weight when your 8 year old can get her arms around you and link her own fingers together!

This is what I want for my last child to do, hug me and get his little arms around my waist.

When you can easily get down on the floor to do push-ups and do the push-ups!

your capris fall off when you get out of the car...or anytime you walk...time to find my belt

A few recent ones for me:

-A co-worker tells you :"If you lose any more weight you're going to blow away!"

-You get carded buying a bottle of wine and the cashier does a double take between you and your ID photo

-You have to go out and buy a full-length mirror, because you don't recognize your own lower body in a photo (true story, happened to me last Wednesday)

A woman came into our office. She went over to my co-worker and said. "I see you have a new girl here"

She laughed and said. "No that's Jaci, she lost a lot of weight". The woman didn't believe her. Lol. I've worked there for almost 14 years. The woman was embarrassed and said it was that my hair looked different. My hair was in a ponytail, which it often is. This honestly made my day.

My gold jewelry bracelet flung across the room while I was talking to my kid. She had to duck down when she saw my bracelet flying towards her, lol

We got t-shirts to wear for a special work event. My coworker saw me in the ladies room trying to decide whether to tuck it in or not. She said "with your flat stomach, you should tuck it in." Nobody has ever said my stomach was flat!

I have line DRIED my clothes for as long as i can remember in fear that they would shrink... well i have been throwing my size 10 & 8's Jeans into the dry on HIGH heat in hopes that they shrink - i cant afford to go & buy MORE new clothes hahaha

Last night I went to visit my Fiance and in a room with maybe 20 other people he couldn't find. He said I was looking so different. That was an amazing feeling. =)

I knew i had lost weight when 2 work jackets I bought years ago never fit...and now I can layer them together and STILL have room in them!!! The funny thing is I often layer them because since losing weight i am cold ALL THE TIME! LOL
