I just read someone celebrating that the towel goes around her with no gaps. I laugh, I would like that. I noticed a ring fit me better yesterday. What little things have you noticed????

    My favorite black pants do NOT give me the muffin top today. Oh small victory, how I salute you. =)

    I feel my waist shrinking a bit. The sides of my body are smoother, and some of my pants are getting too big. My husband put his arms around me while I was doing the dishes the other day and he said, "you even feel skinny." LoL

    My shoes getting looser!! I wasn't expecting this and wasn't too thrilled about this change, I have some gorgeous heels that don't fit anymore! Sigh, I guess this means I just NEED to buy new shoes... ;)

    Last winter I bought a really nice leather jacket in a size too small... it was from an outlet, so it was the only one if its kind left, but I figured if I lose 10 lbs it'll fit beautifully... in spring 2010 it fit *very* snugly and wasn't really that good looking on me, but I tried it on recently (fall is around the corner where I live) and it zipped up right away and looks *perfect*. EEE! :bigsmile:

    I was getting dressed at the school gym this morning, debating whether I wanted to wear my tank or just my sports bra (like I do when I run outside at home) and as I looked at myself without the tank, I thought, "Wow...I look THIN!!" I wore the tank anyway 'cause I figured it's not hot out...good thing I did. The basketball gym (where I ran on the track) had really cold A/C blowing on me no matter which way I was running!!

    I did the same thing! I knew I gained weight and my boobs were bigger so I bought a large motorcycle jacket at Charlotte Russe. I could get it zipped but only if I sucked my belly in, lol... I need to try it on. I bet it will fit perfectly once Fall is here and it'll be chilly enough to wear! Ooh, now I'm excited. Glad you posted this!!

    Too funny, Yesterday I had to roll up my skirt at the waist because it dropped too low. I didn't figure it out till now.

    That I only have one pair of dressy pants/jeans that fit really nice (the ones that I couldn't squeeze into last year) everything else is too baggy to wear.

    I stand closer to the sink now and when I do dishes my big belly doesn't get all wet from hanging out on the counter top :laugh: :laugh:

    Also my pants that were too tight 3 months ago are now starting to get too loose, and about half of my underwear is getting saggy in the butt :happy:

    I am active duty Navy, I have a uniform shirt that I could no longer wear, the buttons were stretching the holes, it really looked like ti would pop off any second,

    I tried it on this morning, If fit SO MUCH better, it was still slightly more snug than a military uniform calls for, I think I'll be able to wear it to work with in two weeks :D

    oh and,

    My recovery heart rate is so much quicker, when ever i do work outs I never stop my hrm till my heart rate drops below my * target zone* that use to take 2-3 minutes, and now, it takes 30 seconds or less, its insane.

    Too funny, I love the shaving legs=cardio. And putting on shoes is yoga. And toweling off is pilates. Great fun.
