I had to share this- I think I may be getting a three pack----just kidding! last night I was getting ready for bed and in the bathroom w/o my shirt on I noticed when I sucked my stomach in- normally I see a roll- now I have 3. I know why would someone get excited about this? I think it is a sign that my abs are getting stronger and trying to show themselves. I laughed so hard and was super excited. Anyone else ever have something strange like this happen as their body changed?

    I was leaning over with one leg up on my chair while I was tying my laces and usually my gut/frontal buttocks would spill over. I felt air and looked down and it had disappeared.
    I believe Mr. Gut took my breasts hostage however, because they have also disappeared:laugh:

    Unfortunately, for me...I lose weight from the top down. My chest (what little I have) goes down and then my stomach and love handles then, if I make it this long, my hips and butt. Ugh. Why can't we pick where we want to lose it and pick where some of it can go? :o)

    I used to say I had a keg for a stomach (big and round)...I noticed the other day as my stomach is getting smaller, my upper abs are starting to show...I commented to my daughter that instead of a full keg, I now have a pony keg with a two pack sitting on top.

    My shoes are loose, but the funniest thing is my earlobes are smaller! Who knew you stored fat in your earlobes?

    Yep, I experienced the stomach thing for sure. Especially when I'm bending over doing dead lifts. Another thing I noticed when my back got much smaller/flatter was that I have a slight discoloration in the middle of my lower back that I never noticed because there was a fat roll there. LOL

    Hmm what else? Oh! And I noticed that when I lie down on my back in bed and lift my legs in the air, there's a "dip" or inward curve in my inner thighs that was *never* there before. I assume it's because I'm losing inner thigh fat. Sa-weet!

    funny - but I would love it if my fingers would shrink- I have always hated how stubby and fat they are. I am told I inherited this- I don't know if this is true-but it would be a bonus for all of the hard work:)

    my head is smaller. I know I would look thinner in my face but literally my glasses fall off my face all the time now. It is so annoying. I need a new pair of glasses.
