Went to Costco yesterday and was pretty shocked to see the woman in the mirror in the ladies restroom was much thinner than I remember. I turned to the side and “where did my thighs go?!?” 😂19

I just bought 2 pairs of clearance jeans, expecting to put them in my closet to shrink into but they fit right freaking now!!! Size 8. 😮 I know it is some vanity sizing but woo hoo!!22

Last weekend I tried on and bought my first pair of jeans that were under a size 40 in at least 15 years!21

Great, isn't it? It may well be "just a number" and it is, but it is nevertheless great. Now, down to normal weight!tech_hunter wrote: »Today, I am overweight! and not obese.....

Well, I’ve shrunk out of my SHOES! What the heck? I have noticed my shoes were getting looser, but this morning it literally feels like I’m flopping around in my husband’s or one of my son’s shoes…12

Who knew feet could shrink too? I lost an entire shoe size and went down to medium width rather than wide. I had to give up most of my shoes after losing nearly 100#. I managed to save some by putting in foam inserts.6 -

That is so crazy! This was one of those things I was not expecting. After only 20 lbs lost, my shoes got loose as well. I’m down 32 now, and I’ve had to buy a few new pairs. The good news is that wearing heels no longer kills my feet immediately. I can wear them for a while.
My newest NSV is that someone took a picture of me dancing at a party recently, and the definition in my arms is pretty noticeable. That’s a first in my life.

That's one of points about "the bulge". Fat is not only stored in its most visually-obvious place, it is distributed all over the place. In my case, my feet have always been the first place where I noticed I was on the right track, because my shoes started to feel looser. Right about now, I have actually started considering buying a smaller size because my shoes have again started to (risk) slipping off in circumstances where there is a bit of resistance (like uneven terrain, or sticky mud).Who knew feet could shrink too?

Also just got my blood work back:
Almost perfect. A little over on the LDL but close enough that my Doctor let it slide!
Off Blood Pressure and Cholesterol meds now going on two years!

Did anyone lose weight in their ears? I have really fat ear lobes and can't wear certain styles of earrings...?6

My weight was 376 back on Dec. 9th. I am down to 266 now. First thing I noticed was I didn't have to wear pads for accidents. I can now hold my toes to clip my toenails. I was just in the hospital and had to have an MRI and a CAT scan and cried when I could fit in the tubes with no velcro to hold the fat in and no one asking me how much I weigh because there are weight limits on both machines.35

I used to take ibuprofin almost daily for joint pain. The last time I took any was several weeks ago and I don't remember the time before that.15

Two recent NSV:
1. My BMI has dropped below 35. Still obese, but now in the lowest class of obese.
2. I can no longer feel the rolls of back fat. I still have a bit of a bulge there, but it's no longer enough to sit on the skin below it. Buh-bye, back fat!18 -
So… I just had my virtual health check up for my biometric screening. I’ve lost 75 pounds since my one a year ago (125 pounds down from my
highest medically recorded weight) and um… my NP was absolutely floored. She asked “What are you doing to lose this weight?” She suggested my BMI is a bit high due to my muscle mass (it’s not , I’m still squishy in places and actively trying to shed fat) suggested my very low resting heart rate (43) is due to being “athletic “ and was just overjoyed at my bloodwork. My cholesterol, A1C. etc was just perfect. I can’t imagine someone describing me as athletic or having “high muscle mass”. It’s crazy.
Anyway, I’m super happy about that. I’m literally working my butt off and it feels like a little reassurance that I’m heading in the right direction.27
