Little Triumphs

So, I have been trying not to weigh myself too often and focus on more important things like how I feel overall. Even so, I have noticed these little and surprising changes over the last few weeks:

- My everyday watch is super loose (I can almost take off three links)
- I have visibly less of a double chin
- A maybe-I-shouldn't-wear-this-but-it's-cute shirt fits like a "normal" shirt
- My work pants feel baggy in the thighs
- Oddly enough, my sneakers need to be tightened more

Anyone else have this experience? What are your little triumphs this week?

    Yay and congrats! I need to adopt this more positive attitude and look more at the small changes and not the scale.

    -I have to tighten my work belt all the way now (Time for some new pants)
    -My jeans feel more baggy in the thighs
    -My husband says he can tell a difference even though I cannot see it all yet.

    I can take off my work pants (uniform pants) without unbutton it and the belt wrapps around 1 1/2 times. Summer shorts I recently (a month ago) bought are too large in the waist and I need to have them tailored to fit.

    Congrats on your alls progress.....I like this threat even it just started.

    Congrats to you both on the little triumphs! They do seem to stack up. I really like your examples about pants. It's so hard to see changes ourselves sometimes, clothing fit is good reminder of progress.
