I guess it's a NSV?

So I was a little discuraged at the lack of movement on the scale, until I had 2 ladies at work ask me what I was doing to lose weight, and telling me it was working. Then I was wearing my favorite pair of shorts yesterday around the house, and without warning, they dropped to my ankles. Call me crazy, but I was pretty proud of that feat.

Anyone else have a moment when their pants fell off their waist and thought it was one of the greatest things EVER?

    Oh my god that is awsome.
    Lol but yea I had something similar. Im a nurse and my uniforms have been steadily getting bigger as Ive lost weight anyway my boss had evidently got sick of me pulling them right upaticularly the trousers that she sent me for some new ones. I got them today only to discover that both the both the tunic and trousers of my new uniforms are FIVE SIZES smaller than my old ones no wonder I felt like I was drowning in my old ones. So yay you xx

    I have a 10-week old at home, who was starting to get a bit fussy. I picked him up and began to do the daddy-bounce to try to calm him down a bit. The problem was that I didn't have a free hand to grab my pants, which hit the floor.

    Since it happened in front of my (open) picture window, I don't think I can say it was one of the greatest things ever, (though I do hope my neighbors enjoyed the show.) :blushing:

    Ha! Yeah. Had the same thing happen to me. Got em fresh outta the dryer and thought I didn't need a belt. Later on in the day, the fabric expanded as they cooled and I looked like a thug having to hold my pants up with my hands. Embarassing, but definite self high-five.

    I had a cute pair of pants that rolled up to capri's. I wore them once, and they ehh "fit", but weren't big by any means. I took them on a trip with me 3 weeks later, and I went to put them on THANKFULLY before we left to go out, they feel down as soon as I buttoned them. Needless to say, they will be going to the good will!

    Great job. I've noticed that since I started working out my weight loss is not as fast. My trainer told me it's because muscle is heavier than fat. If that's the case, I'll take the; muscle any day. I've had to wear a belt lately or my pants slip down. I can pull them down without unbuttoning them. I'm losing inches and that's awesome to me.

    Keep up the good work.

    well done, and yes I've done it, whilst carrying my sleeping dd2 (age 2.5) in from the car - I couldn't stop them falling down
    without risking dropping her, fortunatly I manged to get inside the front door and our overgrown hedge hid the rest!

    as long as the police didn't show up, I'd say it was the greatest thing ever! :]

    haha, makes me wonder why these "thugs" like that, just seems tedious and annoying.

    about a month ago i was packing the day before a holiday and found that none of my shorts fitted properly and had no time or money to buy more. i had to turn the waistband over on them all for the whole holiday just to make them hold up.

    LOL...unfortunately yes! I was walking up the stairs at work on my way to a meeting so my hands were completely full with my notepad, pen, and of course coffee and water. As I got near the top my pants fell down to my knees. Everybody got a good laugh and I still have not lived that down. I went out and bought new pants that night, but now the same thing is starting to happen, I guess I should go shopping before I have a repeat incident!
