    The more weight I lose from my face, the bigger by nose looks!

    And eyes too though! So it balances out. B)

    I have huge eyes and small nose - I haven't noticed that before and I'm really happy that they are visible now without round cheeks :)

    How good you feel when trying on old once too tight clothes which now fit perfectly. In a few months you might have to give them up for a smaller size so get your wear out of them while you can!

    That the "drinking the extra water" will be hard on an old man's bladder!

    So true! I have been 'closet shopping' since a couple of days. I can wear a lot of my smaller clothes now! It's so exciting !
    On the same note, I sometimes wonder how I was in denial about my growing size! Some of the clothes are getting loose and fitting so much better now. Yet I wore them at my highest weight! Now those dresses look so good, and fall well. So it kind of makes me cringe thinking of how I might have looked in the same dress at 10 lbs higher weight. :neutral:

    Nobody told me that my nipples would get smaller, along with everything else. Lol

    Now that, I agree was definitely unexpected. Who'd have thunk?

    That beautiful sundress in the back of your closet that technically 'fits', but you won't wear because it's sooooo tight?
    Yeah. 80 lbs down, and it fits beautifully. Everywhere but my chest. This thing used to hold my boobs up all by itself, now I need a bra? And a strapless one at that, which I still can't find in my size for a price I'm willing to pay, so I STILL CAN'T WEAR THIS SUNDRESS!!!

    AARRRRRRGGGGGGGHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

    I'm terrified to wear strapless anything. I just do not believe things will stay up. I'm imagining scandal, 10 o'clock news, etc.

    If I get asked "How did you lose so much weight?" I am just going to reply "The Mafia was involved."

    Unfortunately this one is too close to be truthful for me. :naughty:

    That you can't control where you lose the weight from and when (aside from toning which may or may not help in the future). So, if you're like me and had a flat butt before you gained weight, then a big butt when you got big... you may end up with a big butt after losing the weight, too. Or if you had a big one, you may end up with a small one. Who the heck knows. Weight loss is weird.

    No one ever told me that people would literally start treating me differently. It truly brought out the worst in some people, and I quickly learned which of my friends were shallow, and which were actually worth keeping around.

    That your husband tells you you look better even after only losing 5.8 pounds in a week. That you don't lose the weight where you want to right away, waist belly
