Interesting ways you've noticed you're losing weight...

Apart from the conventional methods of stepping on the scales or measuring your tummy, have you noticed any other interesting/unusual ways you've lost weight or improved your body shape?
Here are a couple I've noticed over the last week:
- the watch I bought in New York (holiday) in July is now moving freely up and down the bottom of my arm. It was a snug fit back in July.
- strange one this, but I can actually feel that my face is thinner when washing it in the shower!
Any examples you'd like to share? e.g.
- some old clothes you can now get in to
- going a belt hole tighter

I recently fit into the smallest pair of pre-baby pants that I own:) Which means I get to go shopping soon for smaller clothes. Also, all of my winter sweaters I wore last year are huge on me this year.0

here is an odd one or two
1) put on old sports bra this morning.... lets just say it was not exactly supportive any more ( not sure i wanted to lose weight there)
2) I had to tighten my earring backs . They are the screw on kind .... how do you lose weight in your earlobes?0 -
Running out of notches on my belt. Had to drill a new one. Then another one. Soon I will need a third!0

I ride horses and the first thing to feel really loose were my half chaps. My husband jokes about my skinny calves now. :bigsmile:0
-
My pants and shirts are now longer than they used to be!
Today, I put on my favorite sweatshirt from college which I last wore about two years ago. Even then, it just barely fit. Now, I'm thinking it looks too big and I might have to donate it and buy one in a smaller size!0 -
My feet have lost weight - most of my shoes seemed to have stretched while i was bigger, now my feet are swimming about and i tend to get blisters on the bottom of my feet - can't afford new shoes so i'm wearing thick fleecy socks lol0
-
My leggings fit more like pants than leggings. :drinker:0
-
My wedding rings are much looser, and I think my shoes are a bit looser. Would prefer to lose it from hips than my hands and feet, but meh, I'll take it.0

I had a baby in January, and I put on a pair of pre-baby pants the other day and I could take them off without undoing them. Tried them on a couple months after having my son and they were so tight I couldn't get the button done up. Time to put those ones in the back of the closet!0

Sitting on hard surfaces is considerably less comfortable without all the *kitten* padding.0

I can move my arms under my sleeves0

I've found my ribs. Before, there was side fat and underboob fat that covered them, but now, when I poke my ribs, I can feel them And I totally have noticed my face is smaller while washing it too. It is the best feeling ever.0

All of my clothes are too big except for a couple dance costumes from high school - I can't really wear those to work (although one is going to be my Halloween costume)
I was itching my thumb this morning and I noticed a bump and the side. Checked the other thumb and wow - that's a bone I didn't know was there.0 -
My work ID badge hangs down lower than it used to.0

The weather is starting to turn nasty here in Washington so the other day I took out all of my coats and could not find a single one that fit....they all look like tents!
Last night tried on my dress that I have been wanting to get back into for 8 years now and it was too big!! That was a huge one for me cause that was the smallest size I have ever warn in my adult life :bigsmile:0
