    Your belly button isn't flat anymore. It's round again.

    When the friends you were bigger than start calling you "skinny b*tch" more than once every time you see them.

    When the cute new waiter at the diner you always go to offers you a third grilled cheese sandwich on the house. Then when you politely decline, he only charges you for one! - It was a bad day, needed comfort food.

    You go to the doctor for your checkup and find out that your cholesterol is 165 and blood pressure is 110/78. He then tells you that if you continue at your pace you will be able to shed your meds by October. 10 years I have been on these pills. Thank You MFP.

    You don't mind getting weighed in the middle of a very busy gym, even though you're still above 200 llbs because you know you're working your keester off and feel proud that it no longer reads 250.

    I never thought I would ever be able to do that!

    funny because I have had to buy longer pants now that my gut isnt pushing them down so far. I always wondered how as I got older I went from a 34 length to a 32 and recently a 30

    one morning, a few years ago, i waved my son "goodbye" as he rode off to school on the buss. he yelled at me, "no mom! dont do that!" later that day, i asked him about it and he said my underarm flapping embarrased him. :sad: :sad:

    the other day, my teenage son said, "mom, you are looking great":bigsmile:

    you've tightened your xtra large life jacket you bought 3 weeks ago to the tightest it can be and it fits. And you offer a friend to use it because you think he won't have to adjust it but it's TOO tight for him which amazes all of your friends because they knew you were losing weight but hadn't really realised how tiny you've become. My girls are still quite large and still require the xlarge.

    :laugh: Very proud moment.

    ...when your "more overweight than you" co workers make a point to tell you every time they worked out

    ...when you get excited about shopping for swimsuits to see how great you're starting to feel in them (and you don't have to by ones with a "skirt").

    ...when you actually don't mind posing for pictures in said swimsuit (or in general!)!

    I never thought I'd get to do this again:

    When you go out and the chairs have arm rests and you are able to sit in the chair and put your purse beside you.:smile:

    You're wearing your "nice" sweat pants with a "nice" blouse and your newest running shoes...to a business meeting. And you realize that you could dress a little nicer. In fact, you could be one of those slim professional women in a suit that buttons at the waist.

    You start to hope because this time it is really happening.:smokin:

    You just received your order from Eddie Bauer on line, and you're sad and happy all at the same time because the XXL skort you just bought is TOO BIG! And the size 18 shorts you bought "to wear when you've lost more weight" fits just right!! :happy:

    you weigh less on the scales in the middle of the day, fully dressed(even sandals), than you used to weigh clothesless early in the morning!:blushing: :noway:

    you have to buy new clothes because the "skinny" clothes in storage are sooo out of date!

    maybe this has been said - but when you pass by a mirror and actually stop to check yourself out instead of running quickly past it.

    when your kids say things like, "you were never that big, were you?" when you are talking about how much weight you lost so far.
