    Here's my list:

    - Buying new shoes every 3 months because I used to destroy shoes with my weight
    - Being warm in winter because of the extra insulation
    - The extra padding on my backside when sitting on unpadded chairs and benches

    How about everyone else?


    hihihihi !!! i would say when you sit on a plank you got muscles, but in winter hot chocolate with whip cream is a MUST!!!

    BIG ****! i don't wanna loose my boobs, mine are terrific!!!

    I've lost 22lb as of today.

    I miss

    -Pizza
    -Being able to eat what everyone else is eating because I can't just sit down and have a big meal with them every day. I need to count all the calories to make sure I'm not over doing it
    -Being able to allow myself little treats like biscuits or chocolate after doing something productive (I need to do something big to earn a reward like that now.

    Things i definitely do not miss ;)

    -The crippling lower backache after only walking a few hundred metres. The dog definitely loves me more now :p

    There must be some good things about being fat because I keep sabotaging my weight losses. I lose weight only to regain it and I need to stop this cycle.

    I actually miss going out to a club and not getting any male attention. This is odd because I crave attention when I am ignored. But I suppose it's easier to stay faithful when there's no temptation around. Being fat is "safe".

    OK - I've said it now. Time to get over it now and go back to being thin!

    Ohhh, honey, if the lack of attention is all that's keeping you faithful, you have some hard self questions to answer...

    I don't miss anything about the old me.

    And I was always cold when I was fat.

    Me neither. Even boobs are the same. And I don't understand being cold at normal weight, I get warm when I move, and I move a lot more now.

    I don't miss it much...but enjoying things like an enormous Starbucks white mocha with whip, or five cookies at a time, without feeling much guilt or concern.

    (FTR I indulge a lot, do the 'fit your macros' thing...but I sometimes miss that completely blissful, oblivious snacking)

    This exactly. Not caring about what I eat because 'I'm already fat anyway'... it was kinda nice. I don't miss all the other stuff that came with being obese though..

    Yeah, this. I used to eat anything I wanted without caring. Now if I eat something bad, I really feel bad physically and emotionally.

    I'm with you on the drink front though then again I did not have to drink too much to feel tipsy anyway. However these days it seems to be after one bottle of beer and I'm half tipsy.

    Nothing, I still have times of indulgence now, but I get back on track, although i still have the guilt and depression from the overeating which I had all the time before I lost weight!

    I miss not weighing everything, but mainly because I'm lazy. :laugh:

    Yup, I miss my boobs too lol. Every ten pounds I lost I also lost a cup size. Started at 167 lbs with a 36D and now I'm 135 lbs with a 34 B lol. My fiance misses them too :P

    I wish!! As the rest of me has reduced my boobs just look even more disproportionately large - I am worried that my neck and shoulders will have been reduced to complete scrag end before my boobs become a reasonable size.

    The only thing I "miss" (I'm not sure that I actually miss it, really, I think it was just such a normal part of my life for so long that it feels odd to not have it be at the forefront any longer) is the ability to eat whatever I wanted and have no consideration for the quality or portions.

    3 lbs of Chinese food? Sure! A 10 piece nugget combo meal (large, of course) AND a double cheeseburger b/c I couldn't decide which I'd rather have? Totally normal.

    Basically, I ate anything that sounded good at the time.... all day, every day.

    Now I can't pick up anything without checking the label & planning the rest of my day around that one item (if I haven't pre-logged). It's sooooo worth it, and I'll never go back, but sometimes I just want a cheeseburger and fries without feeling like I'm undoing a week's worth of work.

    I don't miss anything at all. Primarily because even if I ate awful foods and gorged myself, I just felt terrible and guilty afterwards. Now I get full without all of the shame and guilt associated with eating things I know I shouldn't.

    I miss my boobs... It's like they were there and then bam gone. It's not that I mind them being smaller per say, it is more about the shape or something.

    My dear husband noticed them too yesterday... I'm thinking about getting small implants just to improve the shape and sag.

    Other than that, I don't miss anything about the old me!!
