Positive Changes...!

[emmapetty]

There are 2 things I have noticed lately:

1. I can now fit my bottom comfortably into garden chairs in my in laws house! LOL - I used to get quite embarassed, and stopped sitting in them incase I got 'stuck'! Thankfully I can slip in and out now with no hassle or panic!

2. When having picture taken I no longer need to rest arm on table with my hand under my chin. Think people thought it was a 'pose' but actually, it was to hide my double/triple chin! LOL - Now I'm able to kick back without the fear of my double chin on show - it's non existent right now! YAY!

Has anyone else come across little 'changes' that have taken you by suprise in a good way?

Hugs x x x

I no longer go out wearing the 'cover up' coat or cardigan whatever the weather! I always used to wear a big cardi to cover my enormous bum and tummy. Now I don't need to!

 

[**sparkles**]

Oh, and my bum no longer wobbles when I walk!

I can look at pretty slinky dresses for Christmas instead of jeans and 'a nice top' (for 'nice top' read 'small marquee')

hahaha! didnt realise but this doesnt happen to me anymre, i was so embarrased about it that if my bf came in while i was in bath i wouldnt move an inch so he didnt see if i did move that all the water was at one end x

My bum was so huge it looked like a ledge! The whole thing moved whenever I walked....yuck!

I work in a massive open plan office with a chair per person - strict! - and when visiting people up and down the floor (which I have to do in my line of work) I can now perch on their desk whilst talking without fear of the desk bowing visibly under the weight of my butt and creaking audibly.

At home I now get undressed/dressed without doubling over and hiding behind clothes so he doesn't see my Michelin Man tyres. Because they're not there anymore! It's a lot more practical posture for doing trousers up...

I fit better into the seats in both my cars! One car has arm rests on the front seats. Before the diet my arm hung over the arm rest. Since I got a bit skinnier the arm rest gets in the way now! I guess when I lose more weight it'll be perfect lol

I have to keep reminding myself that the size 10 muffin top is a whole lot better than the size 15 muffin top I had in April.

I am still loving my collar bones too. It was such a buzz when I first noticed them and yes we do learn to pose in photos with our chin down to make our face look thinner etc.....well no more

 

[contrarytintagel]

I've found my hip bones! Am so fond of them I keep prodding them to say hello.

 

[JustJen84]

i only need to tuck my boobs into my socks instead of my shoes

the only positive change really is that i feel healthier and more confident

 

[eyeontheprize]

I can cross my legs comfortably and wear high heels!

hey emma, yer its funny what we do to hide are lumps, bumps and chins! I work with cctv for local council and today I visit somewhere for a tenants meeting.........as soon as got back to work I went back through footage to see how I looked and not until then had realised how much I could see what I had lost! It felt good!

Welldone emma im proud of you hun xxxx

That's nothing. Once I fell through a deck chair! Your move...

My positive change is being able to sit in the bath without being wedged in!!!! x

 

[onlyme!]

Good thread Emma.
My changes are very much the same as yours. LOVE not having to hold my neck out like a swan to try and make the triple chin disappear.
Love fact when its warm now i dont have to pretend im cold so i can wear a coat to hide the fat - love just wearing a t shirt and off i go.
and i LOVE the fact i keep getting called Skinny Mini at work when im actually a size 16!! ha ha - funny as - all i can say is i must have been HUGE!!!
