Awesome to hear, Neil! I think I had a couple big ones:
1.) Fitting into a Mustang. Before I never really could drive such cars as, well, 560 pounds + sports car /= comfort! Then one day I got in and was like "holy crap..."

2.) Buying clothes at a store lacking "big and tall" in the name. This one was HUGE (literally) for me, when on a whim I went to Scheel's and needed a shirt (long story). So on a whim I tried on something off the rack.. and it fit! It became pretty novel to me for awhile . Now while I'm still a large size, I can get still fit into clothes purchased without lots of X's in front of them. In fact, other big victory was when I tore a pair of pants on vacation. In a panic, stuck in Nowhere, Arkansas I went to the only store in town - Wal Mart. Same thing as Scheel's, walked out with a pair of pants!
