1. It *feels* different when I sit with my legs crossed, almost like my legs are touching closer. I can't explain beyond that, but I can tell my thighs must be smaller.

2. I have been embarrassed to wear shorts for a long time. I carry most of my weight in my lower half, and it seems mostly in my thighs. I also have long had a bad cellulite issue, and therefore hide my legs at all times. It really sucked with how hot it gets here(and already has!), but today I wore a pair of shorts(that I normally only wear at home)out to the store and to Subway and didn't feel like everyone was looking at me with disgust. I also felt like my thighs didn't keep swinging back and forth after I had stopped taking steps. I wasn't embarrassed!

All in all the past week has been amazing. I am really starting to feel great, my confidence has tripled, and I can tell my endurance has too.

3. Today was my 70th day straight on MFP...no cheating, and I only went over 1 time and that was on Valentine's Day.
I love it here, it has made me realize and own up to so many things.
I can't stop smiling :)

    I should add(thanks to my contradiction of a profile pic) that I meant to say shorts without stockings of some kind under them!

    im with you totally on this one, I have now completed 4months on mfp and finally fit into my pre pregnancy clothes and am there with the weight, I still have a little weight to loose and want to really carry on with toning and strength work but I am starting to see a difference i myself and feel happy about how I look.

    I also had a great weekend with compliments and nsv's.... hubby told me he can really see my shape taking form now and im looking smaller, people at the gym commented on 'have you lost more weight? your looking really well, and my BIGGEST PROUDEST MOMENT clothes i have had boxed up as they were small when I was heavily pregnant thought i want them out of my wardrobe, i got out and they ALL FIT!- SUPER HAPPY!! ;-)

    Welld one girl, with great support and determination- it is achievable.... ;-))))

    Great job! I understand what you're saying about crossing your legs. That's one of the first things I noticed as well. Congrats to you! :flowerforyou:
