    That awesome moment when you are taking a bath and realize that your butt no longer creates a dam in the tub and the water flows freely all the way around you!

    ^^^^ That too :tongue:

    ....you're wearing the jeans you lost weight to fit into and realise that if this keeps up, you're going to need a belt soon! :happy:

    When your nephew greets you with, "Wow! Your skinny." Haha kids are so blunt and honest OR your Father in law hugs you and says, "Hey skinny." Both of these things happened the last time I lost weight before my second pregnancy.

    my 11 year old daughter wrapped her arms around me and told me she could reach around me all the way>>>and when my husband was able to pick me up "carry over the threshold" way

    Those are both awesome!!

    Too many women have agreed with my hip bone reply. Which either means I'm getting more in-tune with women or turning into one. :huh:

    When your mother who has always been very blunt about you being over weight says "You have lost enough weightnow" :D

    instead of being the one looking at other people and saying it, you overhear someone say "I wish I had her body" about YOU

    My collarbone... it's been about two months since it came out of hiding, but I can't stop feeling it up! Also, my 11 yr old daughter told me the other day how skinny I looked.... HUGE DEAL coming from her.

    GOODBYE BABY WEIGHT.

    When you flex and actually feel something!

    Yep! I catch myself looking at them all the time. We were at dinner and my husband told me to stop looking at my biceps. LOL

    ...and when you realize you can see light between your thighs cause they're no longer rubbing together.

    That awesome moment when you stop taking photos above your head as you don't have double/triple chins any more : )

    I've refuse to do that, even when I have two chins :P.

    However: When your pants are too loose, right out of the dryer.

    This is a great message board!
    There is nothing better than re-discovering yourself after all the hard work and discipline!
    Congrats to everyone!
    And me?
    I love that I can comfortably wear clothes and feel good about myself!

    Everyone looks good when you take the picture from above your head! I still do it!

    When your husband tells you that you look amazing and he spent half his work day staring at your picture. And also showed said picture off to his boss and coworkers.

    When I see the "real" me in the mirror and no longer see a fat girl.

    This is the moment I can't wait for. It is so elusive for me! It will be a very good moment! :smile:

    i long for the day... :)

    first came the collar bones, then came the hip bones, then knuckles and now my newest thing is...i have veins. i don't mean they're popping out or anything (yet), but my doctors always had a hard time finding my veins when getting blood work done or when donating blood but now, you can see them plain as day. this might sound weird, but it was such a pleasant surprise. no more having nurses poke me with needles over and over to find a vein. :laugh:
