To the OP: I tracked my weight daily for a month to see the fluctuations. I noticed that my weight went up and down the same 2-3 lb. Every other Monday I hit a new low, down one more pound.

I also figured out which days around my cycle would produce the most weight gain, so as I was gaining, I knew that in a few days those pounds would come off again and so I didn't stress about those.

It helped to know what was happening so I wouldn't worry about the fluctuations. It always came down a little more each time and even after I hit my goal, it kept going, so that was nice.

Had more room in my pants.

I'd refused to buy bigger pants so I had been wearing pants that were too tight for a few years. It was nice to breathe again.

I noticed weight loss in my legs..

One morning I was shaving and I flexed a little bit and said "HOLY COW?!" My ego kinda blew up a little bit after I saw that. If only the rest of my body looked like my legs..

My face is better defined, no more double chin. My skin is clearer. My collar bone is visible. My clothes fit well. I do not need layers to hide my body anymore. I can wear a shirt and jeans and feel comfortable and confident. Thank you healthy habits and weightloss.

The first thing I notice when I start to eat healthier and loose weight, before I can see it in my face or the way my clothes fit, is my energy level. I am able to accomplish much more in a day and my daily routines don't wear me out as easily.

Definitely my stomach was smaller and toned and trim.
I was working out to Insanity and I really cut my carbs to only 100 grams per day and cut sugar out!

One of the first things I noticed that I actually wasn't thinking I would, was that my tights felt slimmer and I started crossing my legs in a much more comfortable way than before.
I also noticed my fingers being slightly thinner, and I keep waiting to see my collarbones.
My face is getting thinner as well.
I started swimming, and at the beginning I was afraid of dropping it. Now, not only I don't think I will, I'm actually taking pains to change appointments so that I can go every single time.
I'm competitive, I try to swim faster and better, and also, when I feel tired, instead of trying to rest, i keep on it.
It feels great.

The first thing I noticed was an increase in my energy levels and I also noticed I have better sleep quality now, since exercise has become a daily habit for me. Also, my jeans are starting to fall off my butt if I don't have a belt cinched in. Yay!!!

Just as per "Firefly" shared and

any and all of my pants fall off if I haven't a belt cinched-up tightly!

Even "new" pants that I had for backups, in case I ever got my weight down some, are all too oversized now!
