    I have so many I don't even know where to start.

    - Bought size 29 jeans (couldn't believe it!)
    - Can now wear normal boots that aren't "wide calf".
    - All the dress pants I bought last winter after I started losing are now WAY too big.
    - Someone at work told me today "WOW! you're legs look really skinny in those jeans" :flowerforyou:
    - My legs don't rub together anymore when I wear dresses or shorts.

    I'm so super happy with my weight loss and hope to get the last little bit off here soon.

    Took my measurements this morning and my right thigh is 3.75"s smaller than it was in December 2013. I'm happy with that :smile:

    at lunch with a friend I hadn't seen in 7 years, she asked me about my weight loss. I mentioned that I'm still going but only plan to lose about 10-15 lb more because "I don't want to be skinny or anything" and she said, "Girl you are skinny NOW. Seriously. But you look great."

    I know I'm not skinny but that still felt nice!

    Even though I've already used all my calories for today, I plan to ride my bike later so that I can eat dinner.

    At least I haven't gone over yet!

    I had a coworker tell me she didn't recognize me this morning.

    Sort of scale-related but I also realized I now weigh less than I did when I got pregnant with my son 21 years ago!

    Where do I begin.....
    I bought a new pair of slacks two weeks ago and they fit perfect. I decided since the weather was cooler today that I would wear them out. I put them on and BAM! Now that are too big and I had to add a belt.

    I ran into an acquaintance I had not seen in a few years and she did not even recognize me. We were both grocery shopping and she asked me about a zucchini recipe since I was stocking up on them. I said hi and told her what I was making (assuming she knew who she was talking to) and when I said her name she asked if we knew one another. Haha Granted the last time we saw one another I was 20lbs heavier and sported long black hair.

    I received a text from one of my nephews who told me that I inspired him to get healthy and that he just wanted to let me know. I was moved to tears and this text made my day.

    Today I was looking at pictures from work and noticed a girl (head had been cut off) in the background of one. I realised that she was wearing a top I own, while trying to work out who it was I noticed she had the same trousers....eventually clicked that it WAS me haha! Couldn't believe especially how different my arms look as the picture was side on :)

    Well, I tried on all of my jean capri's this morning while trying to get dressed for work and I have 1 pair that fits. I put the rest in a pile for goodwill. Two sizes down from where I was! Now I wish I had the money to buy clothes to fit!

    Instead of Goodwill see if you have a local thrift store where you get a % when they sell your clothes. Then you can use that money right there to buy smaller sizes as you lose weight.

    I looked at my closet this morning and could only find maybe 10 things that actually fit me well and are not hanging off of me

    I realized that I am on my 2nd to last belt hole on both of my [only] belts

    Today I'm wearing jeans that 6 months ago I'd never even think about wearing

    It's been a good day :drinker:

    I renewed my driver's license this morning and had to take a new picture. My old license picture was taken 5 years and 115 lbs ago. The DMV employee looked at my old picture, then at me, then back to the picture and said, "wow, you've lost a ton of weight! Great work!". I was less than thrilled about having to be at the DMV at 7AM but this lady's comment made me smile. I was feeling great until I got out to my car, looked in the rearview mirror and noticed that I had egg yoke smeared in my beard from breakfast! In my rush to make my early AM appointment, I hadn't checked beforehand! For the next 5 years whenever I look at my DL and see my egg-yoke-face, I will try to remember this woman's compliment!

    I bought a khaki skirt at old navy over 10 years ago. I wore it once or twice but it became too small for me. I always loved it so I kept it in my closet. It fit... but isnt in style lol...maybe in 10 more years it will be again.

    Today at work we were testing the new id card system, which means I (think) I get to get a new ID card with a picture that's actually reasonably good (because I took it myself). I had to take a picture of my drivers license as corroborating evidence, so I was in my wallet looking at my staff ID too. Drivers license picture is from 8 years ago, staff ID picture is from 2 and half years ago. That's when I realized that I HAD lost weight in my face! Very pleased because I wasn't able to see much of a difference in the 32 lbs I've lost in the rest of my body in the progress pics I took recently. And also I've been having a cheat week in which I am bizarrely maintaining without trying, despite eating all the things.

    Casual Friday means jeans but we had a visiting delegation which meant dressy jeans - the ones in the drawer are getting baggy, so on a whim I pulled out the black jean pair from the bag of Goodwill clothese that I have been meaning to deliver just to see if they still were too tight - nope, perfect fit! Much better than the baggy ones!

    My next-door neighbour complimented me on my gorgeous figure !! I'm a long way from where I want to be, but it's so nice that she noticed the progress I've made :-D
