    ... your collar bone comes out of hiding.

    ... you have to buy a new belt because you've run out of holes and the end sticks out of the side of your pants like some kind of flag.

    ... your jeans start making this strange clicking sound because all the extra fabric is rubbing together when you walk.

    ... you go to buy new clothes and the size you think you wear is too big and you have to go get a size smaller.

    ... your eyes look bigger on your face.

    ... you only have one chin when you smile for pictures.

    ... you actually LET someone take your picture.

    You know your losing weight when you go swimming and barely can stay afloat because you lost most of your "bouyancy" :laugh: Swimming is a lot harder for me this spring than it was last summer!
    Really, does that happen? I've always liked it, because I can stay afloat without even having to tread water :laugh: and I like to float on my back for awhile and be lazy! My fiance is 325 and he is a sinker! So I didn't think it would change with losing weight....Maybe it varies from person to person....I hope so, I like knowing that if I fall outta the boat, I'm going to pop right back up to the top! :laugh:

    Yeah, it does... I used to be able to float forever... it was so relaxing. But now I sink like a freaking stone. But that's OK... if I want to float around, I'll just get one of those pool noodles or whatever.

    *When you run just because you love it and can't wait to find the next event to train for.

    *When the girls at work keep calling you "skinny b!tch" (out of love) and talk about how you are disappearing.

    *When you see your reflection in a door or window, wonder who that skinny girl is, and it's YOU!

    *When you pick up the size under your normal size just to see how close you are to a smaller one and it fits!

    *When you stop wearing your rings because they are too big.

    I love this list...congrats to us all!

    you are walking through the neighborhood and wave at a friends son who you have known for 20 years and you hear him say to his mother " Who was that?"

    You stop grabbing the afghan or couch pillows to hold in your lap to hide your middle when sitting on the sofa. Has anyone else ever done this?

    When your wedding ring will actually slide on and off your finger instead of creating a groove in your skin!
    When your engagement ring (almost) fits (comfortably) again (got it when I was 18 and weighed about 115-120lbs and haven't been able to wear it for years but didn't want to get it stretched...because I knew one day it would fit again!!!) Oh and my 10th anniversary is Friday! Yay!

    you know you're losing weight when even your workout gear is falling off.

    you know you're losing weight when you have to get smaller shoes

    you know you're losing weight when you refuse to get your ring sized down because you know in a month's time, you'll have to size it again.

    you know you're losing weight when your "skinny" pictures from highschool are no longer your skinny pictures. they're bigger than you are now.

    you know you're losing weight when NONE of your bras fit (the band is too big even when set on the smallest setting)

    you know you're losing weight when you are no longer obsessed with a few pounds. you are just happy with the size you are now because it's SO much smaller than you've ever been!

    you know you're losing weight when you can relate to almost ALL of this thread. :bigsmile:

    You know your losing weight when you put your favorite pair of jeans in the dryer to shrink them enough so you can wear them and have them fit at least a little while and then at the end of the day, pull them off without even unbuttoning them! Love that but I am going to miss my favorite jeans!
