    That moment in a clothing store change room when...............

    You try on the clothes and you feel like crying tears of joy instead of the tears of defeat/sadness/failure you cried last time you were in that very same change room!

    I've had several moments in the last three years of my journey.

    1. My best friend and my sister in law both crying in the same weekend telling me how great I look.

    2. My neighbors stopping me on the street during my run to tell me how they've noticed my transformation.

    3. Being able to run at all. I never thought I would ever be able to run and actually want to compete in races.

    4. The feeling I got when I fit into a pair of pants I haven't worn in 10 years!

    5. The moment I realize I had muscles under all that flab and could feel them.

    When you are not embarassed about your body anymore

    When people say you are 'an inspiration'

    When you realise your body is what you make it

    When people who see you everyday in your 'mummy' clothes look stunned when you scrub up so well :-)

    This!

    That moment when...

    I sprinted up the stairs and didn't even realize I had until I got to the top and thought," whoa! I'm not even winded and why did I just run up the stairs?" Such an awesome feeling!!! Doing exercise does amazing things!!

    You tell someone "Yeah I run every day - like 2-3 miles" and they look really impressed!! Still the greatest feeling in the world for me - I love feeling so smug that I am perceived to be a member of the "fit brigade" (although if they actually saw me running I might be expelled!!)

    this exactly!!!! it feels good

    When you can stick your finger in your belly button and hit bottom for the first time in years.

    That Moment When....

    -You realize you need to buy a belt because the smallest pair of pants you own has just fallen off your backside (in PUBLIC!)
    -You deliberately park far away from the doors at stores because you KNOW the urge to run will over come you
    -Find yourself drooling at the thought of eating some plain yogurt
    -The first thing you think of for a snack are fruits and veggies instead of chips & candy bars
    -You can no longer remember what it was like to be afraid of trying a new workout
    -Find yourself planing your entire day around your workout routine and find yourself irritable should you happen to be late for or miss your gym time!!!
    -Soda of any kind looks disgusting to you
    -The thought of eating Ice Cream turns your stomach
    -See your children copying your workout moves
    -Your child tells you "You're my Hero" because you can FINALLY do "real" push-ups instead of the just the girly ones!!!!!

    P.S. I LOVE this thread! So many great moments shared! Thanks to everyone!

    When you run a 5k and then come home and cycle another 20 miles because your legs feel fresh and everything feels easy.

    When your high school ring and a ring you had to have upsized don't need to be greased to get off your fingers.

    That moment when your guy friend comments that you're a beast (as in strong) when you move a picnic table with a person still on top of it. XD (I thought he was taking the other end so I moved it most of the way by myself haha)

    That moment when that guy you like says "Your face is REALLY gorgeous."
    I guess I've been losing weight in my face. I'm getting my cheekbones back. It's funny how he worded it "Your face...."

    when your bag of "clothes that are too small" becomes the bag of "clothes that are too big"
