As well as the obvious things such as my clothes fitting better and having more energy, I've noticed how bright the whites of my eyes are these days!

What kind of unexpected side effects have you all noticed?

    My mum's neighbour did not recognise me (granted she is elderly) at first, she said I looked much younger since I lost weight :) I will never get bored of that haha!

    My skin is clearer. I've always been blemish-prone, but the water intake has made a shocking difference.

    I have a lot of them, hard to pick a favorite.

    The shadows under my eyes have gone away almost entirely. Turns out I was anemic, started iron supplements at the same time I changed my eating habits (much healthier foods), so the mix of the two has improved my face. Skin is clearer overall, and brighter. I wear less makeup now than I did when I was 21.

    I have a bit more energy than I used to, I feel sluggish less often, and more motivated in general. I hold my body a bit straighter even when I'm not focusing on it, probably from improving my core strength with exercise or just being more confident, not sure which. My legs are more toned, so I'm even happier wearing shorts/skirts than I was before. :D

    Looking awesome all the time and never having those panic-stricken "I have [insert big event here] coming up in 6 weeks, and I need to lose 20 lbs!!" moments.

    My friends have told me that I look younger and it is true. I look like I am my age now, not like I am going into my 40s.
