1) My neck line- it looks longer
2) My shawdow - It shows my figure without the "flaws" I still see in the mirror
3) My "somewhat" blurry reflection in a picture as I walk down the hallway at my work because I can see how my shoulders are actually wider than my hips now!

I have lots more weight to lose but as of right now these are things I like... focusing on the positive things!

So give me your "quirky LIKES" you now like about yourself since you have lost weight!

    My profile. I actually look like I have a distinctive chest and stomach area, not one big flat area.

    The way my pants don't fit. It's nice not having to hold my breath to put them on.

    My face when I shave. Less fat means less chance of slicing yourself.

    Great progress so far!

    I'm finding I "like" parts of myself I didn't even care about before! I started this journey with one big goal: a flat stomach. But now I find that I'm loving my upper arms, shoulders, back, and butt! Definitely bonuses :)

    Great progress everyone!

    I like my legs more!
    And my face is less chubby!
    I like how I look more and more everyday even if I'm still trying to look better.
    This has never happened to me. I feel happy.

    I like that clothes that were tight on me last summer now FIT me :bigsmile: :bigsmile:

    I like that my face is thinner. :blushing: :blushing:

    I like that I've developed new habits, and feel like I can do this for the rest of my life :love: :love:

    this sounds weird, but I like my loose skin--it's like a visible sign of what I've accomplished so far. Obviously I hope it tightens up eventually, but for now, it makes me a little happy to see it. :happy:

    This is an awesome post! Congrats to everyone!!

    I like my arms because I can finally see muscle definition when I flex. I also like my shoulders and collarbones, and I'm not too mad at my legs right now either. :)

    Nope not weird at all!!! I wanted to hear all the "quirky" likes... I know the typical ones... less on scale things like that, yours is exactly one that I was looking for! Great job!
