SparkleCat 521 Posted August 30, 2014 * My boobs are now bigger than my belly * I have more clothes to donate than I have to wear * On that note, All of your extra money goes to clothes! * You spend twice as long in the dressing room because you constantly have to swap out clothes for a smaller size...your brain just can't comprehend that you are actually "that size" * FINALLY wearing normal size boots rather than "Wide Calf"!! (Can anyone tell I went shopping yesterday? New boots, Size 6 Jeans [please tell me Kohl's jeans run large...I still can't comprehend this one!], new bras and a HUGE pile of clothes to donate!) 1 njgal reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

katesuccess 990 Posted September 6, 2014 When you're hungry and eat more food than you originally planned - but now that means an extra 40-5- calories, not 1500! (And you still lose weight ) When you can do a lunge with hand weights, and not fall over. When the gym becomes fun in that "hurts so good" sort of way, instead of a drag you dread. When you stand on a little step ladder without first wondering if it will hold your weight. 1 LiciKitty reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

MissCK 55 Posted September 13, 2014 Men practically fall over themselves trying to help you with ANYTHING at the office, home depot, grocery store, you name it! Not used to the stares, smiles, and flirting. It used to make me self conscious and I would think people stared because I was chubby. Now, if a cute guy is staring at me, it takes me a second but I realize oh, he thinks I'm pretty! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

penman53 493 Posted September 14, 2014 The leg crossing is true, I never crossed my legs when I was heave, now I do it all the time even when bench rest shooting. Amazing Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
