When your pants get longer because your butt is smaller

My mother, who was sternly against the surgery and says nothing on progress or anything... finally breaks her silence and says "wow, you really do look thinner" (then quickly changes topic

LOL, no longer LMFAO

The words of an RN on your first week back after 2 1/2 months is

...the day you can finally pull your pants and belt up to an actual, honest-to-goodness waist! And it turns out to be more comfortable than wearing them under your belly like you did for all those decades. And you don't have to keep pulling your pants up every five minutes because your stomach is pushing them down. In other words.... When you're no longer shaped like one of those blue bulbs used for sucking the stuff out of a baby's nose.

When we went to a trampoline park and never wondered if I was too heavy to jump. Wasn't winded. Had a great time jumping!

When your coworker says, "girl I don't even recognize you from behind anymore" and others say, "yeah I thought we had a new nurse working here until you spoke to me. "
