    No more gut trying to roll over my pants when I sit down.

    I don't have ongoing itchyness in that crease beneath my belly's paunch, as my paunch is less, well, paunchy. More air!
    My belly button also seems to be less, er, odiferous, and require less frequent cleaning. (TMI? Sorry...)

    I more frequently underestimate my strength, particularly in my legs. All those years of carrying around extra weight has left my legs rather strong. While it's interesting, it's also a bit of a problem on the martial arts mat. I have to get use to whole new body mechanics. Which in turn has made me more clumsy than normal.

    I can't drink as much alcohol. (not so obscure) And when I do, I have to pee roughly twice as often. (More obscue and WTF???)

    It's a lot easier to get out of my water bed, too.

    Life is better!

    I won't have to constantly buy new pants because my thighs rubbing ruins the fabric on the legs.

    Oh gods this is so true. I really look forward to that day.

    Oh me too - I hope this really happens, I am so sick of replacing jeans that I totally love and which are otherwise in great shape!!! (love your new pic ady)

    I have saved a fortune cooking at home and eating out less.

    I can wear stilettos! Without the fear of tumbling over.

    I agree with the others who said their shoes are bigger...my feet actually lose weight. I find this so funny :)

    Not having to think about "what will fit". Just picking anything out of my closet and knowing it fits and looks good.
  • The most bizarre thing I discovered is that I can walk past mirrors and for the longest time I did not recognize myself.

    I'll get to wear my old pants instead of giving in and spending money on a bigger size

    @jelly-jaks - I kinda like that smacking noise.

    :laugh: I was waiting for someone to get their panties in a bunch over my comment. Some people seem to forget this board is for people over 18 and the majority of us have had sex at one time or another

    What's a sex?

    Oh I save time now because I don't have to unbutton my pants to pee. That can be a real life saver when you're drinking over 80 oz water a day!

    ^^ oh lovely "chub rub" as I like to call it..that's probably one of the best things that has happened along my journey, well not having it much anymore. Discovering my elbow bones and hip bones has been nice, oh and my shoe size went down!

    One NSV I noticed recently was that I fit in the bathtub without squishing in there. Now water can run on the sides of me because my hips no longer touch the tub :)
