lol I'm telling ya! when I was smaller it was never an issue but when I gained weight it got to where I couldn't get my arms behind my back to hook it. So I had to hook it in front of me then spin it around and adjust it! But Now, I can put it on, hook it behind me and be good to go! lol

When you don't have the bubble of boob fat under your underwire bra when you sit down. (Or heck, even when the booby bra bubble gets smaller!)

When you can put your fingers around your wrist. (I have short fingers, so maybe that's just one that's unique to me!)

When your skirts sit a little lower on your waist.

It's been mentioned before, but:

-When your undies just won't stay in place and keep sliding down around your butt. Great that I'm losing weight, but so annoying!
-Seeing/feeling my well-defined jaw bone-goodbye neck flab!
-Putting on a pair of too-small pants that I bought a while ago and utterly avoided only to realize that they are now too big
-Putting on a shirt that I used to wear all the time because it accompanied my bulk and realizing it's far too large now and needs to be donated
-Reveling at the fact that my ankles and fingers are actually quite slender and cute

When I could see my collar bones.
When I could sit down and cross my legs (that has never happened to me in my whole life before!)
When I had to buy new scrubs because the ones that i had recently bought were to big!
When my patients and coworkers started noticing.

When my boyfriend can't keep his hands off me

When I look at a picture of myself and I don't feel disgusted for the first time in my life

When I look at a pair of pants and think there is NOOO way they could fit in a million years and they fit nicely!

Collarbones!

hey isobelrose i have jeans just like those, i call them my fat jeans and if one day im feeling fat for some reason i put them on just to watch them fall off and then i realize what i've accomplished so i feel better. there silver jeans so when i feel i can truly part with them thier going on the ebay lol.
dropping a bra size like from a 38 b to a 36 b really helps to! i do my happy jump dance lol. that would be funnier to all of yall if you knew how horrible of a dancer i am.

oh and absolutly on the double chin! i only have one now when im laying down lol.

Another for me is I went to a store thought I grabbed a medium shirt and a large and put the medium on and it fit a bit snug...then to read the label it was a small!

This past weekend my other half's grandma did not recognize me(it's been a year) and for her to be mad at him thinking I was a different woman!!!!

I knew I lost weight when my double chin disappeared. I also knew I lost weight when I went from a 12/14 to an 8.

... when you find yourself doing acrobatics in the shower in order to successfully shave your armpits (seriously, I didn't realize that armpits actually carried weight until about ten pounds ago)

When shopping is fun

When you can be picky about what you buy instead of having to get what fits your oversized body.

When shopping is fun but you can't afford a whole new wardrobe

Goodwill and consignment stores become your friends.

When people say you're "wasting away". I love that....

When people ask how much you've lost.

When you're not the largest person in the gym.

When you can complete the entire pilates or spinning class.

When you order a NORMAL SIZED wedding dress!!! (see Pictures)
