Love this one... Totally!

when you don't feel awkward and uncomfortable when your skinny friend stops to peruse some clothes in a passing store.

When your kids notice you getting up off the floor using no hands just your leg muscles and glutes

When your Husband can carry you upstairs to your bedroom without throwing out his back!

I love, love, love this thread...thanks for the chuckles!! :D

ONE DAY! OMG - this is something I've always thought about. My mom is tiny (110'ish, 5'2") and my dad would pick her up and carry her to bed when she fell asleep on the couch as a kid. I always thought it was so sweet. I always feel asleep on the couch and one day my husband will pick me up and carry me to bed. :D Thank you for this!

When you don't get out of breath while taking a shower...
When you need to go down a cup size...
You start to see where your waist is...

When you can fit in to your smaller clothes.

you have to buy new underwear! :lol:

When you're not the one who always gets singled out to sit in the front seat.

when you are at the bathroom sink and the door that wouldn't close behind you cos your butt was in the way NOW closes by itself !!! :D :carrot:

When your out doing yardwork and your neighbors driving by in the car and stop and do a double take ...to check you out.....and ask what have you been doing!!!! And ask for your secret.:D

When taking out trash to curb you make sure you look pulled together in case you are spotted outside!!!:dizzy:

When you spend two days texting friends to remind them to bring cameras to Girls Night Out....instead of plotting ways to "accidentally" break cameras if they are brought. :D

When you are out walking around in your parking lot and your neighbor laughs and tells you you need to go buy smaller clothes. :) (Okay, so my massive breast reduction surgery had something to do with it but I was still wearing my fleece from 90 pounds ago LOL)

This thread is AWESOME!! I've made lists of things to look forward to, but this stuff is so funny and full of things I haven't even thought about! LOL

Again still related to the breast reduction surgery but it is still fun.... when you shower and automatically start to lift up your massive boobs to wash under them... and there is nothing there to lift up LOL

When the t-shirt that you once discarded because it was too tight becomes your loose comfortable night shirt.

When you can take a small overnight bag for a weekend trip because your clothes are so much smaller and take up less space.

When your husband calls you bony!! I never thought I'd have that adjective to describe me! And I asked him to repeat it so I could hear it again!! :D

You're jumping around doing Turbo Fire HIIT workouts and your workout shorts fall down off your hips ... this happened and I was soooo embarrassed (yet amused) even though no one was watching...

When you try on an XL skirt in Kohl's and it falls down. Whoo hoo vanity sizing, I love you!!

When you see family that you haven't seen in a while and you have to explain that you've been trying hard to lose weight and you're not ill.

Love it! I've been getting "skinny" from my husband :D Not that I'm anywhere near being skinny, it's just his way of noticing the change and it's nice.

When you have to do a double take to figure out which one you are in group photos/videos. Such a nice feeling :)

You're packing away winter clothes, unpacking spring clothes... and they fit! Your old clothes fit or aaaaalmost fit.

when you realize your body actually has bones in it somewhere holding the rest of it up! haha

Costco clothes are to big.

When you keep hitting your hipbones on things! Door knobs are the worst, but today I got hit by my shopping cart and it was pretty painful.

You feel comfortable sitting in your office chair.

I am just starting to lose weight. I have noticed one funny thing so far though. A few pairs of pants I wore were tight on the waist. Now, they droop down and I am constantly pulling them up. Still to big for a belt though. My teenager keeps getting embarrassed seeing my pink undies when my pants fall and says to me, "Mom your not hip enough for gangster pants". HA. Gangster pants,not my style but always makes me laugh.

When you no longer have to smush up your belly against the sink doing dishes because it shrunk.

Your @rse feels a lot less comfy to sit on than it used to.

This thread is great!
I noticed today my back didn't hurt doing the supper dishes because I didn't have to bend over at the sink!
Looking forward to experiencing some of the others mentioned :)

You can get down on the ground and actively play with the kids! :)

You mom brings over a box of memorabilia from your high school years that has some clothes in it and they fall off now.

:D

You can wear strappy shoes, but not your old ones since the slingback straps always fall down now!

So true! I tell my husband I never thought I'd miss the cushioning I had when I was bigger, but some days....

When you realize that wearing heels (even when 9 month pregnant) is no longer uncomfortable. I thought I just lacked the necessary female ability to wear heels, turned out it was the extra weight I was carrying that made them so uncomfortable.

I was surprised to find out the same thing! But if you think about it, it makes sense right?

When you can cross your legs at the knee easily.

When squatting is possible.

When there are tights that fit finally and they look fine, not like sausage casings.

When you don't feel the need to use the handicap stall to be able to turn around in it.

When you can look down and there is actually a lap.

When you can see where your legs join in a seated position. (almost there)

When stuff dropped when eating doesn't automatically hit the boob shelf.

When bras become comfortable (and effective) again.

When you can easily do your own pedicure.

When breathing isn't huff and puff.

When you can slide into your thin husband's seat adjustment in the car.

When you no longer eyeball a restaurant booth to pick the biggest side and when wait staff will actually steer you to a booth instead of a table.

When seat belts are no longer strangulation devices.

When turning in bed is no longer a big deal.

When you quit snoring.

When knees and hips quit hurting for the first time in years.

When your size 8, 9, 10 underwear is too big.

When flying commercially is a totally viable way to travel.

When you look around and are no longer the fattest person in the crowd or room.

When there is no longer a W behind your clothing size.

When you can see your zipper while sitting down.
