This may sound silly and ridiculous but my underwear don't make marks in my skin anymore!! This is an awesome feeling. I know this might sound like a funny thing, but does anyone out there relate to what I am talking about??? I just refused to by bigger underwear, ha ha ha ha..
You are right, those small accomplishments mean a lot. I remember my underwear almost stopping my circulation and feeling that they were actually cutting my skin. Not fun stuff.
Now I love that it no longer bothers me and I can fit into the sexier and smaller underwears.
Right now my clothes are just a little looser. These one pair of pants I wore to work used to cut into my belly. They would leave the marks of the band around me. They don't do that. I would say that is a victory.

Oh hey, Kat, I sure CAN relate about the underwear!! I love it when my underpants are starting to seem a little baggy when they used to have a hard time fitting over my big old stomach!
And yesterday a friend and I were laughing that we have to wear bras that we flop around in or are poking out of. I choose the "poking out" because I am too big and can't stand the flopping! The big ones are on eBay already!!!!! I do NOT plan to wear them again!!
I completely know what you mean about the underwear. I have refused to buy new underwear ( a new size anyway). There was one time my satin underwear were so tight, I think the elastic actually cut my skin. I couldn't breath or sit comfortably, so I went to the bathroom at work along with my scissors and cut the elastic at the hips (my biggest problem area). Yeah I was momentarily comfortable, but traumitized for the rest of the day. You would have thought that would have been my point to say to myself I needed to lose weight. I just figured my dryer had shrunk them (stupid dryer is always shrinking my clothes). As they say denial is the longest river in the world!!!
No marks!!! (funny stuff)
Hi Kat
I choose the "poking out" because I am too big and can't stand the flopping! The big ones are on eBay already!!!!! I do NOT plan to wear them again!!
Congrats on the non scale victory
