Fun thread. You know you lost weight when

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

When my favorite uncle tells me I'm unrecognizable now. He sees me every few months.

When you don't have to turn sideways through turnstiles anymore...

When people insist you did something different to your hair and you haven't...

When the plane seatbelt fits again!! Yay!

The pants you are buying look to SMALL. So you go out to the car & pull down your pants to see what size you are wearing. The are the same size.

When you find the chairs at your parents house have grown since you last sat in them.....and their dogs have room to join you....

When you return home to your own home and your own dogs have room to join you in your char that's grown some, too....

Furniture everywhere seems to be getting bigger and bigger. Strange phenomenon. Strange but cool.

I like strange.

@@Dub yes! that is great! and great for the doggies too. I found the chairs where I have a pedicure to have grown the last time I was there. everything is so much more comfortable.

I used my whirlpool tub last night for the first time since loosing weight. I couldn't believe how much bigger it felt. Felt more like a swimming pool.

Yes! I pick up a dress in my size and look at it and think there is no way I can squeeze into that! And then I step in and do up the zip with ease. So surreal.

You are at the same intersection as your ex and he doesn't recognize you!!!! [emoji16][emoji16][emoji16]

My husband couldn't find me in a group of people because he said he didn't recognize me (ok, he eventually found me, but it took him a while!).

I love seeing all the different ways, The changes make themselves known.And it feels amazing I love seeing all the good things..... I think about a couple of weeks ago... I noticed I have neck, collar bones... I haven't seen those since I had my first child ....

You have energy oozing out of you! I'm always wanting to be on the go! I can't stand to be stagnant. I don't hear myself making comments like "my knee hurts or I have plantar fasciitis" anymore. Because frankly nothing is hurting anymore and I can run up and down the stairs. Also hike and workout without dreading the aches and pains.

Went to buy some new clothes since I looked like a ghost floating around old rags, and I was amazed I could fit in sweat shirts/shirts and jeans that looked ridiculously tiny to me. Kinda nice!

When a one size fits all really does fit and is a little too big! Jumpers for instance! Adorbs
