This morning I was putting on my boots and as I went to zip them up, I noticed something I've never experienced before: They weren't snug around my calf! There was a noticeable space between my calf/ankles and the boots. This is monumental for me because I've always had large calves and had a very difficult time finding ANY boots that fit, so to see some space in there, amazing! I rejoiced for the small victory.

So what's the strangest place you've noticed your weight loss in?

    My feet. I was sitting last night and happen to look down, and was surprised by how thin my big toes are! I WISH my calves would follow....

    My ankles get skinnier when I lose weight.

    My wrists. I didn't think they looked fat, but I guess they were because I have to keep cinching my watch tighter and tighter!

    My feet. After losing 107 pounds, I went from wearing a 9.5 to an 8.5.

    Oddly enough, my nose looked skinnier, that was the first place I've noticed.

    I don't know if it was really weight loss, or just less weight putting pressure on them, but I'm a smaller shoe size now.

    It's a whole more challenging to shave my armpits now becuase since I've lost weight I have more dips and craters - no one ever really warns you about this stuff haha

    I seem to have developed a neck wattle instead of a double chin. Getting old sucks.

    Yes! I had just said this to my husband over the weekend. He looked at me like I was crazy.

    My tailbone... When we're doing certain stretches and ab things in my dance classes, I find it very hard to balance because it's just on this little, pointy, bony part instead of the fat that must have been there!

    My hands and feet. They didn't seem fat to me before but now they are skin and tendons and bones---I'd just as soon my hands would be a little plumper. How do you gain fat in your hands? Hand implants? :laugh:

    I've also gone down a shoe size, which I always thought was impossible.

    First place was my wrists. Suddenly, my watch likes to orbit my wrist instead of leave imprints. Then there was my ankles, because my socks don't leave imprints on my skin anymore. I noticed I had to go down a size of shoes when I got boots last month. This is in a span of 40 lbs. I've lost 43 now, and still have another 57 to lose. I can't wait to see my belly button without leaning over!

    My ankles, and now I'm noticing a difference in my shoulders. I keep running my hand along my collarbone because I haven't felt the little bumps and shapes along my shoulders in so long.
