Default The happiest point in your weight loss journey was...
..... the fact that I realized yesterday that none of my jeans fit me and I can pull them on and off without even unbuttoning them

What is yours?

Thus far would be realizing that my wedding ring might need to be resized soon before it falls off.

When my pants fell down, lol.

When I easily slid into a pair of size 8s (I haven't worn single digits since high school!!) and actually looked GOOD in them!

There has been several happy moments.

My hubby being so "grabby" with me. LOL. The other day we had a pic made @ a restaurant we were in and I noticed seeing the picture that he was all over me. It makes me feel young and giddy again.

Being told I was "tiny" by the lady that did my CT scan. Okay, so she was a big gal but stillllll.....

Buying clothes at thrift stores and looking nice in them.

Beginning to "feel" thin some days.

I also determined today that I can slide my jeans on and off without unbuttoning or unzipping them. So that is my happiest moment, so far. Except for the immediate realization that I cannot afford new pants.

Isn't that funny--the jeans on the discount rack are always small!

My happiest moment is probably today, as I got on the scale, and I'm officially halfway there! Having lost 10 pounds, I can now fit into more clothes that are hanging in my closet.

When I went shopping and grabbed a pair of Tommy Jeans, which I could never wear Tommy anything before, and really didn't think they would fit - size 14, but was I ever shocked when they slid on comfortably!! I did a dance in the dressing room and then bought two pairs!! LOL
