1. My family is so proud of me (though they never made me feel bad about myself)

3. Burpees do not suck nearly as much

1. I finally beat my oldest sister at something - I'm way better at logging regularly than she is. And I think I'm losing weight faster, too.

2. I think I've finally found a diet that I can stick to. Being able to look at logs a few weeks back, compare that to how I felt, and then seeing what others have to say about having experienced the same challenges I have... these all have really helped me tweak my diet over the couple years I've been on here.

3. Finally getting accepted to Hogwarts.

Well I still consider myself only at the beginning but here are my top three:

1. I've gone from 20/22 in pants to ALMOST a 16!! (Just can't get the button done lol but another pound or two and I'll be golden!!)

2. My one friend and my SO say I am inspiring them with my weight loss and they are looking to start losing now as well.

3. I know that my knee replacement is very happy with nearly 30 pounds off of it!!

But in general, I think I just kinda feel better.

What a great topic!

Hard to pick just 3....

1. Lost 35 pounds
2. Can shop in regular stores and have my sizes be in stock
3. No longer get the dreaded thigh chaffing!!!!

I'll second your 2 & 3!

Also:

I'm finally able to tuck my shirt into my jeans and not feel self-conscious because my muffin top is now gone!
I've lost over 20" from my waist, going from an 18/20 to a 6/7.
I'm able to look at a picture of myself or in the mirror and for the first time in almost 20 years like what I see!

1) I am not having anxiety attacks anymore. I leave my stress at the gym.
2) I am in better shape than I've been in 12 years
3) I am totally happy to be in front of a camera again

mdallas6

1) My anxiety has lessened
2) When I look down at my thighs/legs in size 12 jeans, or M athletic shorts, it looks like someone else's body to me
3) My back fat (enormous rolls) went away

Love your 1 and 2! Isnt it weird to see clothes in your closet and your like...are those mine????

Yes! Or taking them out of the dryer...that is so weird. I still have a thing about buying jeans or pants, I always think "well yes I can wear some 12/14 but this looks tiny..." then I try them on and they fit. Yay!

WOOHOO!!

perfectlytrained

1. I'm off my bp meds and high cholesterol meds (yay!)
2. I'm strong and sexy and developing a killer body (yay!)
3. I'm loving shopping and mirrors again (yay!)

OPile

1. I've started cycling and love it. I did my first 30 mile ride yesterday with my husband's club at 15 mph and survived.
2. I fit into my old clothes from when I was thin at university (15 years ago).
3. I can order and eat a personal pizza and be happy. Before I had to have the large and then I'd be miserable.
