    Oh soooo many lately.

    1. I am officially a size 8 - and confirmed it by trying on a few different brands. The size 12 shorts i brought on May 24, are baggy needing a belt and the size 14 jeans i bought in Dec are ridiculously too big.

    2. My waist at the smallest part measures 29" - that blows my mind since it started at 43"

    3. I own a bikini - haven't owned one of those in 22 years - now i just need to get confidence to wear it outside LMAO.

    4. A male family member saw me for the first time in a year and he just looked at me then said - you've lost weight. *insert shocked expression here*

    Not only the ubiquitous "my certain pants finally zipped", but I find I'm actually looking forward to going to the gym and lifting weights. Me. A total fat girl. I never would have guessed that would be the case, but always hoped.

    I had to get a 18 34/35 Slim Fit dress shirt altered - in the good way! Working out has always kept me in an 18" neck, I have broad shoulders but as my waist has kept getting smaller even a slim fit looks ridiculous. Once I get into a neck size that fits, I have 4" of underarm sail all bunched up into my belt. I got 2" taken out of each side and it looks great now!

    Now off to fork over the money for the rest of my shirts so ALL my clothes can actually fit.

    This may seem silly. I grabbed a handful of grapes this morning while packing my lunch. I put a few back then weighed them. I had 100g on the nose. I was so proud of myself and that I am getting better at gauging a single serving.

    A friend sent me a Facebook message last night with a picture from 2012. She said, "You don't look like the same person anymore." I told her I used a cropped version of that photo as my "Before" pic and refer to it when I need I reminder of why I do this.

    I've had to get rid of my 3XL shirts. I'm now officially a 2XLT kind of guy! I don't have as many shirts but, I do like 'em smaller!

    i just bought a pair of awesome shorts last week that i've been wearing pretty much every day, for one because they are the only shorts i own that fit and two, because they are really super cute. well, i had bought them at a thrift store, and today the button popped off. but i love them and i don't want to stop wearing them, so i went to see if i had a belt or something. i reluctantly grabbed the belt that i couldn't even buckle around the smallest part of my waist just 3 months ago, and it actually fit! around the largest part of my waist! ahhhh! i've been tape measuring, but when you can quantify it with something in the real world, not just numbers its so much more meaningful.

    In the last 2 days, I've gotten

    "You look great!"
    "You can really tell that you've lost a lot of weight."
    "You look so different from when we first met."

    I am comfortably wearing a pair of shorts today that were so tight in the hips/butt they felt like they were gonna rip if I moved, and I could barely button them 3 months ago. :)

    I normally have to lean seat back in car after wife or son drives it to fit the GUT. Didn't have to today

    I'm a typical pear shape, tiny waist, big hips. Well, this morning a skirt that I wear that I can normally only put on over my head came up over my hips!! Its was a teeny bit if a squeeze, but I'll take it!!

    I have three:

    1. I had to punch a new hole in a belt today. I know everyone says this, but this was my skinny belt from when I lost weight the first time (I had put on 10-15 lbs over the winter and have just now taken it off again). My waist is now officially smaller than it has ever been in my adult life!

    2. After losing 12 lbs in two months and having no one notice, I’ve had three people mention how good I’m looking in the last three days. I know it shouldn’t matter too much, but it feels good.

    3. One of the above people told me that I’ve inspired him to get into better shape (even though he’s already pretty trim).

    I learned today that the average pace for a 40 yo female running a 5k is slower than my (so far) average 5k pace...psyched!
