I had to tighten my watchband today for the second time -- I've had to cinch it in two holes since I started this! Really? My wrist is what's shrinking?:laugh:

    I almost walked out of a pair of shoes today! So apparently my feet are shrinking and I no longer have cankles! :happy:

    I've heard that happens! Haha! I long for no cancles but I think I had them even at 110 lbs.

    I can wrap the towel around me at the gym and not have to hold it without falling off..

    A few days ago we had a nice spring day so I took out a pair of khaki pants from last year and put them on - they still had a rubber band looped through the button hole because last year I apparently couldn't button them or it was too tight to be comfortable - but now they fit just fine. :)

    I put on a pair of dress pants that I could not button before Christmas, and now I'm able to button them and stick my whole arm into the waist band (while I'm wearing them)!

    I love hearing these! For me it's these little things that keep me going! The blood pressure one is no little NSV, it's a honkin' big one! I love the towel one.

    I got told by two different people today that they love my hair. (It's the same it's been for 20 years and I've known these people forever!).

    As I lost weight my nipples shrank. It was unexpected but gratifying.

    I put my jeans in the dryer today to have them be more snug! The jeans have gotten a little loose.

    that made me psyched to think-I don't have to hand dry them anymore or stretch them out before I walk out the door.

    I just love all these posts. The little things turn into big things. Congrats everybody.

    Being small enough to fit comfortably in a regular size bathroom stall in a public place.

    Being able to wrap a regular size towel around my body and tuck it in

    Not having my thighs touch ...no wait ....not having my thighs smushed into the sides of chairs with arms

    Seeing my collarbones ( I touch them constantly)

    Being able to fit into my wedding dress from oh so many years ago

    Able to cross my legs instead of just propping one ankle on my knee

    Went to buy a new pair of jeans and thought I'd see how much more I needed to lose for the next size down...and the smaller ones fit perfectly!

    I do like the NSV above...about being able to wrap a towel around you and it actually stays put, without gaps and extra skin showing! Funny what makes an impression!

    I've been sick this week and as an excuse to get off the couch for at least a few minutes, I broke out Wii Fit. For the first time since I bought it (maybe 5 years ago), my BMI and weight we're in the 'obese' range or even the 'overweight' range....but NORMAL!!!! For some reason, having the Wii Fit computer thing tell me that I look smaller made me feel so good! haha!

    Finally got to try on my prepregnancy spring clothes, and everything fits well again (6 months post partum). And I tried on my between pregnancy swimsuit (its a spanx suit and my c section belly is still a mess), but my legs and arms look great in it! Best in years. A huge NSV victory for me will be to ditch the skirted swim bottoms this year! My niece a few years ago embarrassed me at the beach (she is little and had no idea) when she asked me why I was going into the ocean with my skirt coverup still on.

    My nose is smaller. Who knew noses got fat too. But I guess the fat is distributed everywhere.

    Silly as this may sound I hadnt seen my collar bone in years!! I just noticed it in a pic the other day and felt like doing a back flip.

    I was able to sit in the Amtrak cafe car without my stomach digging into the table! It was still a tight fit but a victory nonetheless.

    I have three pairs of pants that I can take off without undoing the zippers or buttons.

    Last month, I did my workout on the medium setting and with a light resistance band. This month, I am doing it on the hard setting with a stronger resistance band.
