You know you lost weight when

[jjinWA 511]

My Husband & I were on a power walk/jog... it had just poured... 1/2 way through the path was flooded out about 15 feet long... he picked me up and carried me through the Water (i had brand new sneaks on & HE didnt want them to get ruined!!) First time he has been able to carry me! i cried tears of joy... he laughed... HAHA

I know this is corny, but your comment made me cry. How sweet he was to carry you and how wonderful that he could!!! You hD to feel like a princess!

I'm on vacation and celebrating so many things that I can now do with out pain. One going speed boating with my husband...well when I asked if the vest was adequate for me to float the young man said well your a little Fat you will float, now there was a time not long ago he would be swimming with the fishes.

I smiled and said dear I've just lost 80 pounds and last year this vest wouldn't have fitted. He said Wow congratulations. Now my point is I felt so good about my journey this time I wasn't gonna let anyones ignorance spoil my joy. We went out on the boat and I deep sea snorkeled for the first time in 12 yrs.

Good for you to see the positive in that situation. As for me, I think he still should be swimming with the fishes... That comment was rude. I am always amazed at how easy it is to call someone fat. I wonder how he would have felt if you responded as to how small his hands were.... Maybe other things are small too! And I am not referring to just his brain.

@jjinWA I finally weigh less then him! its a great feeling that he can pick me up, or wrap his arms around me...

He is 5' 8" and 177 - so by no means is he a big guy... for him to be able to pick me up... yeah it was a moment i wont forget...

Just came back from a trip to Croatia with my husband and my 30 year old daughter and son-in-law. Dubrovnik, Croatia is filled with stone stairs. Our room was a couple of blocks from the main square and 77 steps straight up! I kept up with everyone (with an occassional stop to rest) and it was wonderful! I even kayaked in the sea and climbed a tower in Rovinj to overlook the city - wonderful trip and there is no way I could have done it last year.

I just returned from a trip to London. A day later I had my so surgery. I have to admit I had been fooling myself about what I was able to do when on vacation. My daughter and I did vacation in Paris several years ago and I was able to walk continuously throughout the day. With this recent trip to London was a bit of a disappointment because I could hardly walk anywhere with having to takin request rest stops. So this was a quick reminder of just how out of shape I have gotten over the years.

I will plan another trip next year and will compare my progress. I am sure it will be much better results.

Your thighs no longer rub together when you walk!

You come to the realization that you were never "big boned".

When you can put your wedding ring back on! I have not worn my ring in many years cuz I was too heavy and refused to resize the ring. I was always going to lose weight! Well finally I have. Put it on for the first time today! Sooooooo happy.

When your husband picks you up and carries to the bed and throws you onto it, just because he can

Also, I'm really close to this one because so I am getting excited for it: when you FINALLY weigh less than your husband, because he has never struggled with his weight. 10lbs to go !!!

I am so looking forward to weighing less than my husband. That is my ultimate goal!
