Fun thread. You know you lost weight when

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

Oh yeah. I forgot what it looked like!

Feekenstein - cant wait to see your post! I am excited for you. This will be an amazing journey!

When you no longer drive with your tip toes on the pedals, and can finally pull your car seat up to where it should be because your belly isn't in the way anymore

When you look forward to deciding what to wear to work because it is so much fun now. I actually woke up early to do this the other day. When you take selfies just because you like the way you look now. I hated taking pictures of myself before. When you love clothes/shoe shopping again. Before it was depressing and something I dreaded. I'm only half way to where I think I will be. But having a BLAST!

When you ask your 9 year old twins if they want to go out back and play some soccer with Mom, and they drop their video games with a look of pure joy and race each other out the door and you actually play soccer and stay out there until it is dark without breaks and your kids tell you how proud they are of you and how much fun they had. Best. Feeling. Ever. And I am only 12 weeks in. Can't imagine what this might be like in another few months!!

I was sitting in the car yesterday and looked down. All I saw was boobs and legs, no belly. Before my belly use to sit in my lap and rub the steering wheel. No stomach in sight. I can look right over my boobs and see my crotch. I sat there for a long time really amazed.

When you can bend over and touch your toes with your knees straight

The whole crossing your legs thing is weird. I don't remember ever crossing my legs, even when I wouldn't have been considered obese... it's the weirdest feeling in the world to me lol. Anyone else??

Your old boss walks right past you not realizing who you are. Happened to me last week.

I'm sure it was a great feeling,

a very critical old friend sees you after about 3 years and says...."Wow, are you losing weight?"

When you have to wear a belt and a scarf to hide how big your old winter sweater dress really fits. Without the belt or the scarf I could not leave my house wearing that dress. It is crazy to me that 7 months ago I could no longer wear it because i looked pregnant in it. Now i have to trap it down so I dont look like I am wearing a rag. Without the belt the dress was way over my knees and the top went so low my boops were showing. Thankfully I had a nice scarf to wrap it around my kneck. I think it time to go shopping. Fof the first time in years I have to take clothes off because they are just way too big instead of too tight. Such a big change, mentally I feel so liberated. I actually tried on a size 14 pants today and a xl skirt and they fit perfectly. I could not believe what i saw in the mirror. ????????????.

I never crossed my legs really, even when I wasn't large. Now all I do is cross and un-cross my legs to the point I am annoying myself. I love it, It is comfortable and when I do it with a dress on I feel super sexy.

Crossing my legs makes me feel super sexy too!

When you are walking and you feel your panties rolling off under your dress because they're too big!
