    You have an apple or an orange and it tastes just like candy to you, because you have gone so long without eating candy or sweet desserts, that now fruit tatstes more sweet than candy.
    YUM!

    I've had one big "moment" I was out to dinner with my family for my birthday and because the restaurant was so busy they sat us at a booth... which I'm terrified of booths, but we didn't have an option. So I sucked it up and had my Mom and my hubby go in before me and I braced myself for what was going to be a horrible dinner of being cramped up... and I slid in and ..... I fit!!!!!!!!!!!!!

    There is NOTHING that I'm looking forward to more than when my jeans are too big and when I feel comfortable in shorts again! Florida summers are just too hot to suffer through in jeans and I've got about 15lbs til I'll be comfortable enough to wear them again! Congrats to everyone's successes so far! This thread was a great idea, SO motivating!

    That moment when you spring into the gym instead of holding your head down in shame, fear or lack of confidence.

    That moment when you can walk to the regular side of the store and not the plus size. Also being able to REALLY curl up on the couch and not have rolls in the way!

    Love this!

    I'll post this one.. it was several years ago before I gained the weight back but it was a big one..

    I was working retail at Christmas, and I saw a thin pretty girl out of the corner of my eye, and I stepped back because I thought I was standing in her way. And then I turned and realized I had caught my own reflection in a MIRROR. OMG.

    I hope I have moments like that one again. :smile:

    That moment when your cardiologist tell you that you have a NORMAL heart.... When you had 3 deformations for the past 20 years.....

    That moment when...

    Your husband hugs you and can put his arms all the way around you and link his fingers together...

    Your six-year-old son says, "mom, your arms and legs look smaller than before".

    You can sit comfortably in a restaurant booth for the first time in YEARS!

    You realize that you can cross your legs.

    Your belly no longer rubs the steering wheel in the car anymore!

    LOVE THIS THREAD!!! :laugh: :happy:

    I noticed today that the belt I got at Christmas is on the last notch and it is still too big!!! :) And my hands look skinnier and my fingers look longer.

    You can pull your pants down without undoing the button and zipper. :D

    That moment when you realize your saving money because your body washes and lotions last longer.

    Yes!! I totally noticed using less lotion - it was an awesome feeling!

    My engagement ring that was almost too tight to wear at Christmas barely stays on my finger now...

    Still many more of these moments left on my journey. Congrats to all! :)
