    Not funny as such but made me laugh. My Mum gave me a pair of her old trousers in what she thought was my regular size, when I tried them on they would'nt go over my thighs! I was so upset- I must have gained weight!

    Then I checked and they were actually a size too small for me. Phew! The great thing is they fit me now.

    I can fit in a restaurant booth now.

    I can stand up and walk right away without stabilizing myself.

    My chair only yells ouch now, it use to yell for the love of , get out get out.

    People you know pay more attention to you, like you figured out the world was round.

    My favorite is, you didn't do this by hard work, whats your secret.

    WHAT ARE SOME OF YOUR FUNNY MOMENTS?

    Loved the chair comment!! too funny! As far as fitting in the booths at a resturant,its kinda ironic they sell mostly food that makes you fat to begin with and discriminate by putting in booths that your belly hangs over to fit in..I guess with a napkin tucked, it keeps the food in place when it doesn't hit your mouth. Loved this! Thanks for the chuckle

    feeling the cold - I was always hot before, but now have had to invest in things like coats :noway:

    huge reduction on aches and pains that I had got so used to I didn't really notice until now I don't have them as much

    huge amounts of energy

    how much easier everything is

    how loose my joints and muscles feel even after a good workout compared to before.

    I'm definitely healthier, I used to get a cold or stomach problems ALL THE TIME.

    I can't stand the smell of McDonalds, it literally makes me wanna vomit.

    When I swing my hips, the whole body doesn't swing and jiggle with them.

    Bath towels fit so much better.

    My ring has started falling off in the shower
    I've had to buy a new belt
    I can do up my 'skinny' (size 14) shorts that I bought 3 years ago when I was smaller.
    My tummy no longer goes out past my boobs
    My boyfriend has commented that I am looking "even more sexy than usual" :blushing:

    I was laying in bed recently on my Tummy reading my computer. My hubby comes in to have me check out ebay auction. He laid half his body his legs on his part of the bed and used his elbow to prop up his upper torso of his body using my rear end to support himself with his elbow. The weight of his elbow digging into me actually hurt me and I said "ouch" and he said "what has happened to my cushy rear end pillow its gone! He said "I have leaned my elbow and laid like this before to look at your computer and I use to be able to see the computer screen and now I can't see it like I did before.He laughed and said "His cushy pillow was gone" He had to sit up to look at the computer. He is always commenting the size of my hips have gone down in inches a lot. I liked the size of my hips before and so did he. I would have preferred the fat leaving first in other more critical areas of my body like Tummy, thighs. OH well I am just grateful the excess inches are leaving. This is my NSV that I have noticed and it has only been 20 lbs I have a long way to go yet and reading the comments posted here is encouraging. :smile:


    My husband prefers me fat....I am getting too much attention now...very jealous...grrr.
