following on from my comment about bath water in another thread I thought we should share the little things that tell us we have lost weight even if the scales don't tell us.

So to start

You know when you've lost weight when the water can get round you in the bath

You can zip up the boots you haven't worn since 2003

Someone at work notices you look different

    Agree, I'm in the same boat, go away in 4 weeks and not sure what size to go for. Have found some smaller clothes in the back of the wardrobe that would do but a just a little tight, but keeping fingers crossed. Worse thing is I bought some new clothes for the holidays before I started on the tabs and haven't worn them yet!!!

    When you no longer have to park in the parent and child parking spaces at the local supermarket to ensure you can get you car door open enough to get back in to your vehicle without being blocked by the car next to you.....

    When you notice other over weight people in the street and you wonder if they are on the blue tabs as well.........

    When your man boobs look like they no longer need a bra............

    Well Done Andy....I like your sense of humour!!!

    All I can contribute to this is that it is so good to have folk who meet you say....'Gosh look at you' (yesterday) and'You're looking awfully well' (today). It really helps the medicine go down!
