  • When you can wear your smaller friends clothes perfectly.
  • NO more heart burn meds!!!
  • Quote: When you have to go to the restroom at work and do the "tights dance" in private because tights that used to leave marks on your belly are now slipping and falling down around your hips!
    This!!!! Except I do it more places than just the ladies room!
  • Your husband calls you Urkel because you are always pulling your pants up super high so they stay put.
  • Many of these responses had me laughing my butt off! I don't have any to add, but I do have a funny story. I am still pretty big. One day at work I had on a pair of elastic waist pants and the elastic broke. But the pants didn't budge. So I was saying "You know you're too fat when the elastic breaks in your pants and they still don't fall down." LOL
  • ...When you are horrified that you used to wear sweatpants out in public (other than at the gym).
  • When you no longer have to worry if that makes you look fat!
  • When you can walk across a snowbank, down an icy road, etc without holding on to someone! My brother's roommate was waiting to help me across the snowbank (because the lazy buggers don't shovel a path to their door), and I was totally fine on my own! I never realized how much help I needed to stay on my own feet in the winter!
  • I pulled my dress pants down today to change into workout clothes and when I went to fold them to put on the chair, I realized they are button/zipper style. OOOPS.
  • When you can put on an outfit and just run out the door because you know they all look good! I used to have certain pants that would ONLY go with certain shirts because the waist line of where my pants hit would look terrible with 90% of my shirts, or a shirt would only look good with one pair of pants. I love that I can just pull out a shirt and jeans and I KNOW they will look good together
  • When you enjoy wearing belts
  • These are great!! Thanks for the laughs.

    When you grab an old T-shirt to throw into your gym bag to put on just to wear home after your pool workout and shower... and you walk by the mirrors on your way out and realize you look like you are wearing a tent!!
  • When I can tie my shoes a little easier
  • When you look at a photo of yourself taken a year ago and have to second guess if you know who that person is.
  • When you put on a winter coat from last season and now can fit two of you in the same coat this season. (This happened me to me last week!)
