Downsides to weight loss (just for a laugh)

Has anyone experienced any unexpected downsides to weight loss? This is only for a bit of fun. For example my personal contribution is since my layer of insulation is depleting I'm bloody cold all the time so my household heating has been turned up (hence higher energy bills) and the other half ain't too happy, lol.

    Make sure to include a winter coat because winter is way colder after losing weight

    I need to buy new pants (clothes in general) but do not want to buy my in between loss size pants. ie: I need to buy 34 waist pants right now, as my 36s are falling off my *kitten*. But I know I will probably need a 32 by goal weight. So yea, I dont want to waste money on the middle size 34! Haha

    Having to chuck all your shoes because they're too big now!! Even more embarrassing, being able to wear kid's shoes size 4-5.

    Oooh my gosh, this made me laugh!
  • - Yes, being cold all the time!
    - Having to replace your entire wardrobe.
    - People on public transport feeling they can take up more of your space because you're not filling it so much!
    - Butt bones hurt more from sitting on hard surfaces.
    - If you have wider hips like me (and still some curves in your behind), the dreaded pants waist gap!

    Ten years ago I lost 50 pounds and while I wouldn't call my 10 year old daughter a "downside" she was certainly a surprise.

    All of the above, plus not being able to sleep on my side comfortably. Also, much smaller boobs and flatter butt. :'(

    The upside: I am no longer overweight.

    I am around 3 rings short as I randomly lose them ( not while drinking so can't blame it on that ;) ). And I also sleep with a pillow between my knees, as otherwise it hurts. And forget about sitting on hard benches for long time, even tho I still have some cushions to help. Those in addition to the ladies getting smaller, which is my only "regret" :smiley:

    I've not lost enough to notice my clothes being looser yet but I have noticed it in my shoes damn it!!! I have some gorgeous shoes and will be mega annoyed if they don't fit as they are styles I can't easily replace. They don't make my cherry red stilettos any more :(

    So i lost weight but still have curves. So I have *kitten* problems without having a big *kitten*. Like the gap. It wasn't as bad when I was bigger. Those clothes accommodated for that more

    My recovering fractured tailbone hurts so much more without the padding to cushion it!!

    City Chic has the cutest dresses, and I don't really fit them anymore...

  • - The amount of food wasted when you are eating out because portions are always too big and you can never eat all that food!
