Fun thread. You know you lost weight when

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

When you get a new hair cut didn't recognize yourself. Had to do a double take

All so fun to read congrats everyone

1. You can wrap the bath towel around you and it covers all of you !

2. You are comfortable crossing legs.

3. Your clothes are all baggy on you !

4. I can fit my hand around my wrist.

5. You look at yourself in the full body mirror and feel good.

6. You start taking pictures of your whole self and not just your upper body.

Men follow you around in the supermarket.

You buy a belt and your best friend shows you that your waist is the same size as her thigh.

People call you a "living doll"

Everyone keeps telling your the wind is going to blow you away

You have hip bones, collar bones...

Your butt get sore sitting down because there is no padding.

The girl at banana republic insists on getting you a size 0 so it fits right.

You can fit in the clothes in the little girls section.

You can easily touch your ankle to your butt.

You can sit in the back between your kids car seats.

The blood pressure cuff at the doctors office won't fit because it's too big.

Lol I had lost a significant amount of weight in my early thirties (which I of course gained back) and I realized the lower poles in the closet were not too low. It's just that my shirts were so huge they had been touching the ground. Once I was wearing normal sizes the poles were suddenly, magically an appropriate height!

I was at the gym the other day talking to some girls when I said I still had 30 plus pounds to lose and one of them turned to me and said where?

Wow, these are all so motivating. I've lost some weight, but I am preop. I just started the Classes last week. Hoping to get my surgery in January 2016. I can't wait to be post op and goal weight.

When you can fit all the "new" shoes in your closet that couldn't fit your fat feet before. I did not expect my feet to get smaller and it is a wonderful surprise

I had never thought of this until it happened to me...my eye glasses are too big! After losing 124 pounds in 8 months, my glasses did not fit. I was able to get them adjusted but the doctors office told me they were no longer the right size!

I fit into a size small and it's not too small! ????

You sleep in your slippers and flannel pajamas!

When you have 14 inches of seatbelt strap on the plane and no extender!

Not fitting in an airplane seat prompted my research into bariatric surgery. When I fit without an extender, it was a SWEET VICTORY!!!!

My favorite pair of prescription sunglasses no longer fit and it is soo frustrating. I wear them with hats and scarfs so I can anchor them on my face lol

When you can finally get pregnant after trying for 17 years and all it took was a major weight loss. My doc always said it was possible but it seems losing 20-30 lbs never did it but losing 100 lbs was the remedy!! Going on 11 weeks and super excited!!! What a great reason to gain weight...I just have to tell myself, I am not getting fat, I'm just pregnant!!

I did what it takes to get down 100 lbs and I wasn't even stopping so I know after the baby, Imma be on the road again....EASY as 123!!! GOOOOOOO VSG!!! LOL

i hope you're doing well!
