Fun thread. You know you lost weight when

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

you feel so good about life!

You walk into a room and all eyes turn to you .... no longer invisible, nor "Lisa has gained so much weight"

You feel comfortable in your own skin again and your self-confidence has come back full force and shows.

That's amazing Lisa! Congratulations! ????????????

I am so happy for you!

I haven't lost that much weight yet, I'm only 3 weeks post op, but I smile every time I cross my legs.

Winter is back and I must say I haven't felt this cold in years! This might be the only downside from weightloss but damn I am freezing all the time.

You have to have links taken out of all your watches. Jewelry is too big.

When my pant size became a single digit.

You pull up you panties and they fall back down around your ankles!

And lastly being able to buy bras and panties from Victoria's Secret instead of just shower gel.

When you do the math and realize that you've lost over a foot from your waistline. When the first digit on the waist went from a 4 to a 3, it was life-changing (Started as a 52, now a 38).

Funny that stores now seem to have a boatload of jeans and pants in my Old sizes (44 x 30 seems to be popular at WalMart)

When your slip falls to your feet, your underwear falls as you walk, many comments calling you "skinny", having elation when you buy a medium- it fits ok but a small would've fit even better!!????

When you no longer need 3 pillows to support your chunky head. 2 pillows now for me!

When your collar bones come out of hiding

I loved this one! It just made me feel more pretty and feminine.

I WISH! I have always loved collar bones that show, but mine never do -- no, not even when I'm super thin, they don't stick out at all. I broke both of them when I was a kid, so maybe they just didn't grow the same after that. *pouts* But I love semi-fitted t-shirt tops with 3/4 sleeves and biiiiiig scoop necks -- and collar bones would look so fab with them. *pouts again*

You could try using makeup along your collar bones to accentuate them. Just a little dusting of highlighter powder or cream blended in very very lightly is all it takes. The light will hit the highlighter and they're easier to notice. I love doing that in the summer, but if they're showing in your outfit, it'd be just as fine in other seasons. Send me a message if you'd like some more info to decide whether you want to try it. I can send a tutorial and a couple brand suggestions.

When I get into the tub and my body is actually under Water and my stomach is not sticking out!

As an avid bubble bather, this is something I really relate to. Can't wait to hit this one! Not there yet, but it's coming! Congrats!!

When you can properly lay Tefillin.

(My arm was too big for my set!)

Congratulations, that must be such a wonderful feeling! And thank you for adding something no one else had previously mentioned!

I googled Tefillin, as I'd never heard of it -- very cool! I love learning about other religions and cultures, so thanks for the inspiration to learn a little more!
