you know you are losing weight when....

When jogging/walking on a hot day, you're no longer embarrassed to pull your shirt off and tying it around your waist to finish your jog. Until this week, I left my shirt on no matter what, but it gets really hot an humid down here at this time of the year regardless of what time of day it is, and ripping your shirt off beats trying to finish your jog is a sweat drenched shirt.

another reality for me was just looking at my shadow when I'm walking/jogging. It looks very different than 3 months ago.

oh, and then there was the other night at a party and one of my friends looked at me and said, (and this is an exact quote as I remember it) " dude.........bruh............................bruh............dude". Somehow I knew he was trying to tell me that I lost a lot of weight since he last saw me although he didn't articulate it particularly well.

when you go to the clothing store and pick up a full carriage worth of clothes in a certain size and then start trying them on and they are all too big on you!:)

When your co-workers tell you that you really need to buy some new pants that don't look like saggy drawers and then give you a bunch of gift cards for your birthday that aren't to Lane Bryant like the year before!

LMAO!!!! I am rolling on this one!!!!!:laugh: :laugh: :laugh: :laugh: :laugh:

When you actually fit into a top properly which not only your bf loves, but also gifted to you 4 years back

when you have to stop your pants from falling past your bum to the ground whilst running across the street (oops!).

I am laughing to the point of tears with all of your weight loss experiences!

My experience: When you can slip into a sundress w/o spanx and feel firm and phenomenal!

Ditto to all of the above! Now I have an interesting one: I'm in my nightgown ready for bed and I'm sitting on what I think is wad of fabric from the nightgown. Upon further investigation, I realize it's the large bone at the lower end of my spine. That strange wad on my butt is bone I'd never felt before! LMAO! :laugh:

when your slightly crude coworker tells you that you are "as tiny as a motherf*cker"

1. riding on my JD lawn mower and there is all this room on the seat....AND, b/c of the mower safety feature, when I hit a bump or dip in the yard or stop/start suddenly, I am 'lifted' off the seat b/c I am thinner now.... SO the mower stops! Happens all the time now!

2. sitting on the couch or at my dinner table I am able to pull my knee(s) up to my chest, and it's comfortable!

3. when my bra isn't on the last connector...it is on the tightest....and still too big around!

4. doing crunches, sit ups I realize my belly has gotten smaller/flatter!

when you have to clean out your closet because only 10 of the one-thousand shirts actually fit.

When I can no longer sit in the chair and rest my arms on my belly - in fact there is nothing there to rest them on! :bigsmile:

i have one of those stupid thin shower/bath tubs and when i first moved into my place i had to literally squeeze into the bath tub to sit....i only noticed last night i actually have room to move and even questioned myself whether i was sitting weirdly...after alot of swishing i came to the conclusion i actually was smaller...yay i fit in my stupid skinny bath!

When you notice almost all your slacks you've been wearing to work are now considered "pooh-pants"... The slacks I wore 3 months ago that fit really well, although a little tight at the tummy are now sagging in my legs & butt and anything but tight in the tummy! All my bras, while they fit nicely (without back-boobs) are too big in the cup and I can wear a low cut shirt and I have a really nice chest shape (apparently, with my smaller boobs the low cut tops actually look sexier since it doesn't look like ballooned fat on my chest).
Plus, just for fun, I decided to try on some of my pants & shirts I could wear 2-4 years ago... HOLY COW THEY FIT AGAIN - of course most of them are too high-waisted so will have to be replaced ! And as I type this, I am wearing one of my fav T-Shirts that I am so happy I did not throw out 2 years ago: it is a size "S" Disney Thumper cap-sleeve T-shirt, and it looks really cute
And when you go to scratch your neck & realize there is a definite distinction between your neck, chin and jawline... Who woulda thought :laugh:

When you are chased across a parking lot by a complete stranger so that they can stop you to tell you how pretty you are. :blushing: It happened to me Saturday night.
