    That moment when you realize that reasonably portioned meal is indeed enough.

    That moment when you realize healthy stuff isn't so bad and it's okay to be hungry.

    That moment you decide to pack up all of your old clothes and give them away. When you admit that you really are many sizes smaller now and need to get new clothes.

    This was a truly emotional moment for me. I literally struggled, teary-eyed, to accept that it was time...that a new me had finally emerged.

    Your Doc says you've probably lost enough weight. Tells you that you no longer need to take medicine for triglycerides or the two BP meds you've been on(or GERD, cluster headaches, tachycardia... had em all).

    You need to buy smaller underwear cause, never mind.

    You get your wedding ring resized the second time.

    You see yourself in the bathroom mirror out of the corner of your eye and panic for just a second because you thought someone was following you... but then you realize it's just a smaller you. :)

    When you put a suit on for a meeting at work that was fine in February, and the pants just fall off. I currently have the waistband safety pinned in two places, so I can wear the pants without them being around my ankles.

    As I've got 18 lbs to go, I don't think tailoring is in the future for this one.

    I am perfectly happy with consignment shops/thrift stores for work clothes. But since I really don't have any idea what size I'll end up in 18 lbs, starting the hunt is kind of silly.

    That moment I found out I could do handstand pushups even at #300. Score one for muscle overcoming fat.

    Awesome!!

    When the seatbelt on the plane buckled and I didn't need the belt extender. I'm pretty sure the guy next to me though I was just really really excited about flying lol.

    When I started "renting" clothes - buying from the consignment store and then selling it back after it got too big!

    Yep, being hungry is a feeling that's hard to get use to, but it's intentional and good for you. Training yourself to pay attention and then not over-eat is a huge obstacle but very rewarding.

    That moment when you realize how much you enjoy your new healthy lifestyle and know there is no way you're ever going back to your old self.

    That moment when you look in the mirror and see your face as it used to be, liking seeing an old friend. Not the imposter who took up residence for the past 20 years!

    The moment when you walk out in the freezing cold to go to your garage to work out because the temp is only temporary. Results can be life changing.

    That moment when.......your resting heart rate has gone from a consistent 65 down to 60! Not that mine was high to begin with, but to know that I am making my heart stronger by exercising every day is awesome! :D
