Is anyone else obsessed with looking in the mirror since losing weight? Anytime I pass by one, I have to stop and admire. People probably think I am vain, when really I am just amazed at my accomplishment.

    Yup, I am. I love looking at myself now. My son thinks I'm crazy because I get so excited now when I look at myself in the mirror. I'm constantly raising my shirt up and looking at my new found waist and my smaller stomach .

    I like to look at how loose my clothes are now. It's so exciting! I don't feel like an encased sausage in my clothes anymore!

    I have only just started and I keep looking in the mirror just to see if I notice any changes.. My hubby says your not going to see any changes your self right a way but other people can prob see the changes.. I really think my double chin is starting to leave but I am prob only wishing I have only lost 2 pounds since I started here a week ago.. although I am working out hard everyday..
