    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 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 :tongue: ! 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 :tongue:
    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 can see and feel your collarbone!

    When you can zip up those black calf-height boots and they completely zip up!

    When you can wear a little black dress, not because you hit your weight goal (or anywhere close to it) but because you are that confident.

    Your necklaces hang lower. Can't believe how "long" they've gotten. I need some shorter chains so they don't get lost in my bra! :)

    When you have to put your bras in the dryer (which normally is a big no-no) because they are getting too big and you don't want to invest in new ones yet!!!!!

    This happened to me the first night I taught Zumba..I lost my pants and underwear...and what sucks is everyone sees you pull it up! Lesson learned! I have since bought new smaller underwear!

    When your underware falls off when you are working out! No Lie!!! Two nights in a row!

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

    I have that problem when I'm running now too! Great feeling, no? ;)

    "When you look forward to weigh-in days, because even if you aren't losing, you've come so far!"
    ^THIS

    and also when people comment on how little you ate when you feel like you couldn't possibly eat another bite.
