What do/did you hate about being overweight?

So many things I hate right now!

I hate:
* Having to wear and swim with a shirt and shorts over my bathing suit because I look so gross.
* Not wanting the hubby to look at/ touch me because I’m worried he’ll be disgusted by me
* Looking in the mirror
* Not being able to wear cute clothes because they either don’t have them in my size or they don’t look good on me.
* Wearing long sleeves and pants in the summer
* Being the fattest cousin again
* Being so out of shape that walking up and down my stairs exhausts me

Ugh! Soon all that will be gone! Can’t wait!

Uh ok, this thread has been resurrected. It is an Interesting read.

I hated clothes shopping so much. I thought it was just because I was a non shopper. Now being able to wear regular (not plus size) clothes, shopping is great. Of course I hated it before. Everything looked terrible or fit well in one area but was too big in another area. It was a depressing mood killer!

What about everyone else?

You have a lot of hate towards your body and that's painful to hear. Honey you may need to lose weight but you shouldn't hate all that you are because of it. Your body gets you through a lot in a day. It keeps you moving it keeps you breathing it makes your heart beat..... say thankyou to it for getting you this far and treat it nicely for doing so. I wish you the best of luck and dont let me hear about how much you hate your body again 😉

I can't wear jeans, I'm too big for my pairs of jeans and I refuse to buy larger ones

I have never felt attractive but I feel more unattractive at this weight

I dislike the constant thinking of weight loss, it's mentally draining

I have breasts and I'm not meant to
