    When the jeans you tried on just 6 months ago, the ones that could barely even button and made the worst muffin top if they did, now sit loosely :D

    when your workout clothes are way too big for you! and when your coworkers insist you burn your pants because the saggy butt look just doesn't work for you!

    when there is more space between you and the steering wheel.

    I love this one and totally relate! For so long I had to have my seat all the back in the car and work the pedals with pointed toes. Now when my husband gets in the driver's seat of my car he says, "Baby how close do you sit to the steering wheel?" and there is a good foot between me and the wheel now. YAY!

    When a dress you bought 3 months ago needs to be altered cause the straps are falling off and you can see the bra around the "ladies" area... Also, bra strap falling because the "ladies" have shrunken and the bra ain't supportin the new sized ladies :glasses:

    When it looks like all you're t-shirts have turned into tents because you just can't afford to buy more!

    When your husband says "WOW Babe when we hug- Were sooo close" Smaller belly = closer hugs! <3

    When trying on your jeans in the morning isn't part of your daily workout - no huffing, sucking in, jumping up and down, wiggling to the right, wiggling to the left.. just to get the button done. You know, you just put one leg through then the other.. slide them up and they fit!

    you no longer have to get a seat belt extender on airplanes, you don't have to squeeze into theater seats anymore and you don't have to worry about seats or bed breaking on you.:flowerforyou: I could go on but I will stop here.....:-)

    I can totally relate!! For now I will glady wear the "tents" until my final goal when I will shop for proper fitting clothes!!

    When you no longer FEAR getting seated at a booth in a restaurant and you can just SLIDE on in :-) That goes hand in hand with your belly not touching the steering wheel as well...... GREAT feeling!

    You can fit in one leg of your used to tight fitting jeans. Used to be plus size 26 now I'm a size 12-14. And you can see your feet finally!

    When your husband tells you that your "ladies" shrank!!


    I can't wait for the day that my hubby says that to me!! The few times I have lost a little bit of weight, it NEVER comes off my chest!! (but I think it goes TO my chest when I gain that weight back!!) :ohwell:

    I had no idea that my exercise pants weren't fitting anymore until I started getting a painful sore on my right hip. Turns out my pants weren't tight enough to keep my ipod from bouncing up and down so it was rubbing the same spot repeatedly for at least 45 minutes! Painful way to notice weight loss, lol.

    When you go to put on your favorite jeans and realize... you didn't have to unbutton them to get them on!

    That's hilarious! I actually had to use the restroom really bad and yanked my pants off without unbuttoning them and I didn't even notice! Now I NEVER unbutton my jeans... partly because I'm too lazy :P

    You see a picture of yourself and have to take a second look to make sure it is you. I saw a picture of myself today and couldn't believe my face and arms already look so much thinner.

    When someone you see everyday comes up and gives you a hug and realizes they can put their arms ALL THE WAY AROUND YOU!!!!! (so this was a big one for me....)

    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 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!

    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:
