A bit of an embarassing NSV, but it's ok!

This site has been the best for me since I started 5 weeks ago. I had never been able to try anything that seemed to "work" for me, until this. Sunday morning, I was in the kitchen ironing my shirt for Church, and my wife and two daughters were scurrying about getting their breakfast. I had on some trousers that 3 months ago, were tight on me and hard to button. I have noticed a huge difference in my belly and my pants are fitting quite a bit looser. I had on my pants, but did not have my belt on. I was ironing my shirt and my pants fell to my ankles. I was pretty embarassed, but my 13 year old said, "Geez, your belly looks so much smaller, and isn't that a good problem to have?" I didn't think she had noticed anything- made me feel pretty good.

It really motivated me to really keep it up.

    That's awesome. Great motivation. I had kind of a similar thing happen to me. I went to the gym to work out on the elliptical trainer, and I noticed that my pants seemed to be falling down. It was kind of akward, but I kept working out and pulling them up so I didn't embarass myself... :-)

    Yes, good problem to have. I had to buy a new belt - the old one simply would not tighten any more - there was no more space on it for a new hole. The new belt has been getting "longer" too.

    Congrats on the success!
