Oh my this one is so true! I can't wait to see my boyfriend again because when he says my body is sexy (he's always said I had sexy curves - I thought I looked more like a hippo though!) so I'm actually going to BELIEVE him and be like "you're damn right I'm sexy!"

When a relative who's never been bigger than a size 2 in her life except when she was 7,8 and 9 months pregnant tells you that she can tell you're loosing more weight because your face looks smaller My family has been awesome with my weight loss....my husband is always telling me how proud of me he is (and telling me "I found it" when I tell him I lost another pound lol).

hahaha im sorry i dont want to laugh but i used to do that all the time!!!!!!! id actually sit on the edge of the chair and barely put my weight on it fearing that id fall through in front of evernyone :S

but on a side note: i think when your boobs dont pop out of your biggest bra
i like the bench thing at restaurants been there and done that
the crossing your legs and having to hold one up or pull one up because its so heavy...

but usually the most prominant thing for me is my face, when i lose weight my face shrinks down sizes!!!!!

I haven't lost that much weight yet but these are the two things I have going on:

-Your cheekbones start to emerge again.
-You are laying on your back and you can feel where your ribs are because they are higher than your stomach!

When you have to drill holes in your favourite belt because it is now too big :P

I love this thread! It is what got me to join the site because I wanted to post so badly!

You know you have lost weight when...
The pair of jeans that was uncomfortably tight begins to feel loose!
You can FINALLY wear skinny jeans!
You no longer feel the need to finish your plate.
You can finally see a hint of collar bone!
You are no longer the fattest person in the room (happened to me a lot when I was obese in my high school classes)
Your dress size is in the single digits!
You can finally wear the same clothes as your ultra svelte mother.
You notice your little "pooch" getting smaller!
You can tell men notice you.
Your bf wants to pick you up and throw you around every chance he gets!

-When you can wear boots without feeling like you will burst the seams.

-When your bra size goes down and you no longer have to wear the straps that look like they could stop a raging bull.

-When everything seems to fit just right.

And, my personal favorite:
When you go engagement ring shopping with your boyfriend and not only does the sales lady say you have small hands (I have always called my fingers my sausages) but you have gone down an entire ring size from the last time you got fitted for a ring.

(And yes, that is true, by the way. )

AH! the boots thing!!! i finally have some cute sand boots that im not busting out of!
I also am finally seeing my body changing in the mirror it so weird!

Clipping your toe nails is no longer a challenge.

When you grab a size large and take it to the counter, and the first thing the lady at the store says is 'I don't think that's your size, ma'am.' You bristle, ready for the snarky remark but instead hear her call out, 'Stacey! Grab the lady a medium, will you?!'

[melodymist]

Same as above with the clothes. Going to the fitting room with 10 pieces of clothing to fit, only to come out an half hour later, saying that nothing fits. Everything is too big! My mind still needs to adjust!

When you don't know what's worse; Not eating junk food or not being able to find anything to wear because EVERYTHING is too big!

When you are in Zumba and your leggings start to fall off

When you're running upstairs in Jeans and they fall off

(This just happened, and i'm shocked) When you walk into Express, and they ask you if you'd like to try on the dress you're holding (size large)


^ I was shopping with my very petite friend and was asking if they had it in another size... thought it was a fluke until I walked into White house|Black Market and one of the girls started pulling clothes for me to try on!

I have never stepped into these stores before, and I am nowhere near their sizes, but I guess I could pass for that size! I'm super excited for the day I can buy a large instead of an XL or XXL!
