Happiness factor for me is.......................my legs dont rub together when i walk ( i have others but thinking back to when i joined and wrote the bit on my page about incentives to lose weight, this one sticks out and now ive acheived it) :)

    As small an achievement as it is, but being able to reach round and do my bra up without someone else having to help me or having to fasten it at the front then twist it around!

    For me its really feeling beautiful and desirable...like I did when I met my husband. I really used to agree with the thighs rubbing together...that was a past weight loss goal for me...but when I met my goal, even in a size 4 & feeling great, my thiggs rubbed together. I think for some of us its just how our body is made and still beautiful. We are women, made for child bearing, afterall. So this time around, I want to fit into my pre-pregnancy clothes...and that's it.

    losing that little pot belly right above your "cooch" area (sorry, I don't know another term for it... hmm.. "hoo-hoo"??) <--Fans of Kristin Chenoweth will get that reference.

    I hate that little ponch and it totally aggravates me when it just sits there and doesn't leave. Like it's laughing at me in the mirror. Well I'm going to have the last laugh when that ponch is GONE by bathing suit season!!

    going shopping and grabbing clothes--and realizing they are too big. That was an awesome moment--never knew what too big clothes felt like :)

    Not being embarrassed by my thunder thighs at the gym when I go swimming or get changed. I've lost 5 inches off each thigh, and 9 inches off my hips, but the thighs are still pretty thunderous. Some day!

    Being healthy and inspiring others. On a side note, I also like to be able to go out with my hot friends and be considrered on of them. Not the one that everyone tries to get to hook them up!

    Looking at some smaller clothes you own, thinking they're too small, being too lazy to do laundry and deciding to put it on anyway...

    And then having it mysteriously fit.

    ACTUALLY. FIT.

    Only then does one realize that their size perception might be a TAD off.

    :laugh:

    The guys may not understand this, but yesterday I went to a large thrift store in my city and tried on and bought two pairs of size 16 jeans...that didn't have a 'w' behind the number! To go from a 16w (or Lane Bryant 'blue 2' right fit) to a standard 16 in three months is huge for me! And I can now wear large shirts instead of extra large.
