The weirdest thing about your weight loss?

I think the weirdest thing for me was my husband had his watch sitting on the counter one day, it was the kind with a velcrow band, and it was made as small as possible. I picked it up and without evening thinking twice made a comment about "who in the world would ever wear a watch this small, why would they make it be able to be this small?" He looked at me and said, "I bet you do" After a few moments of "No, I don't, never this chubby girl, blah blah blah's" I put on the watch.
Even as small as it would go, it was too big on me and slid down my arm towards my elbow. We both just laughed at my own stupidity and how funny the bickermant had been. I still don't see myself as a skinny person when I look in the mirror even though people tell me all the time I am tiny.8 -
People think i walk "lazy" No i'm not walking lazy i'm walking this way to keep my jeans on my hips instead of around my ankles!9

People at the hospital where I work ask me if I'm trying to lose weight or if I'm sick ! No I don't have Cancer, I've been loosing weight since March. My relatives that I havent seen in a while don't recognize me until I speak. I think I still look the same. Oh well.3

LOL at some of the funnier ones and well done to everyone!
On a more serious note, I actually realised that I've just walked around shops and a street market for almost 3 hours without having to stop once to catch my breath or just literally take the weight off my feet - a year ago I would have been sitting down every five to ten minutes - now that I call a success!
Please keep them coming, they're making me smile, and it takes more calories to smile than to frown

When I started my weight loss I have a tattoo that goes from my elbow to my shoulder. It used to just be on the arm now after losing 85 pounds it wraps around my arm and makes almost a whole part sleave LOL. Orginally I was going to have a tree put on there with the mermaid and now I have no room for it. Also my tattoo on my back raised up and is now on the base of my neck. I didn't know that tattoos moved around as your body got smaller. LOL
Strange you should say that - I have a mole that used to be on my neck, now its on my collar bone! I have a moving mole LOL10 -
My rings don't fit me anymore and my clothes seem longer. Also my shoes have gone big for me which means my foot size has probably gone down1

Weirdest thing? My grandma told me that my "tuchus" looked tiny! I love Yiddish.
My grandparents are the same way! Not to mention I once had my grandpa get pissed and he rambled a bunch of Yiddish to this one guy. I asked him what he said....His response.....If I wanted you to know Rosie, I wouldve said it so you could understand it lol I have a feeling he didnt say a single nice thing lol0 -
My rings are really lose on my fingers, my shoes went down a size, my boobs of course shrunk....But whats odd is I wear the same cup size but smaller bras....(had the specialist explain that one) Ummm times Ill lose a lot of weight but my body hasnt shifted at times. Now its catching up. Went from a 26/28 now wearing a 16! Dont remember being a size 16 when I was this weight before....No complaints! When I was this weight I was a size 18 Love being athletic now!

Lets just get out of the 200's first lol6 -
My hands get cold real quick. And I noticed I needed new underware when my well you know kept poking out between the layers of fabric. Took me about 2 weeks to realized it was becouse my underware was getting to big. LOL
OMG I THOUGHT IT WAS JUST ME! My hands get sooo friggn cold, heck my whole body gets a lot colder now when the weather drops

i get colder easier.
that's a big one.
shoes are looser.
and the other day I put on my bike helmet that was almost a bit too tight and now it fits my head slightly loose.
the headband with ear muffs that I wear fits nicely right under the edge of the helmet now instead of just under it.
way more comfortable all around.
i've also noticed that my fingers seem thinner.2 -
Sorry, for all the comments one after another, I just keep reading on and on of all the posts that people are putting up and its so amazing!
Tell me if im the only one but
DO YOU REALIZE PEOPLE WHEN YOU GO SHOPPING TREAT YOU DIFFERENT?!?!
When I use to go to a store or mall just to look around at things that dont fit or see what jewelery they had, They at times wouldnt even acknowledge me. Now they approach me and are friendly and want to help me find things........I hate that the world is like this. But it feels good to be recognized.7 -
I love these post!!!! Helps me look forward to more things I may discover myself!!! But one thing I have noticed so far... My rings slip around more (As in the stone on the ring is now on my palm, not the back on my hand like it should be!! haha
ME TOO! But I have so much more to lose I refuse to let my husband buy me a new one just yet...0 -

Pointy shoulders. lol.. I used to be 265, now 215 and my shoulders are so pointy, oh and the collarbone is a weird feeling when you used to be big cuz at 265, I def didnt show them, now I do. Also, thinner feet, I didnt realize I had sooo many bones in my foot. lol those are the weird things ive noticed since losing 50 lbs.3
