Things you've noticed about urself the more you lose weight!

*sorry for the 'urself' shorthand but I wanted to make sure the entire title got posted*

Okay so I know all bodies are asymmetrical, but when I was heavier, I definitely didn't notice it much (besides my feet, haha). So anyway, now I'm noticing my left arm is smaller than the right, my left lower back is smaller than the right side, and even my thighs (If you couldn't tell, I'm a lefty ;-))! I was one of those people who looked in the mirror *all* of the time even before my weight loss so it can't be that I'm just looking at myself more now. I'm thinking the smaller I get, the more noticeable it is, but I kinda feel like Quasimodo now. :-/ LOL No it's not that bad, but still.
I've also noticed a slight discoloration on my lower back that I never knew I had (cause of the fat rolls that are no longer there).

So, what have you noticed about your body, now that you're slimming down, that you never noticed before?

    I glide between the steering wheel and the seat, instead of wedging myself in to my truck. :laugh:

    I walk differently the more weight I lose, and I stand up straighter.

    I have my chin back.
    I noticed that something was different while doing Yoga, then I realized that my gut wasn't hanging out.

    My arms touch my body instead of my body touching my arms. I noticed that while out for a walk yesterday.
    I can paint my toenails without holding my breath.
    I don't have to hold any fat out of the way while "landscaping"

    I've only lost 5lb so far, but I've become more observant and noticed how asymmetrical my waist/hips are! So interesting!
