    Worst - There aren't any, except yeh maybe shrinking boobs
    Best - Everything, fit into size 10 clothes again, be able to wear slim fitting dresses without bulges everywhere.
    Feel confident to walk around naked, not worry about cellulit or jiggling body parts...Feel better about me.

    Worst:
    1. Shrunk boobs
    2. cost of new clothes
    3. feeling like every piece of chocolate will stuff you up
    4. other people's opinions
    5. flakey skin, hair falling out, no period

    Best:
    1. confidence
    2. happiness
    3. buying new nice clothes
    4. people noticing and giving you nice comments
    5. exploring new foods and appreciating food more since you don't get as much :P
    6. realising it's actually really easy to do when you commit to a healthy lifestyle, so if you screw up you KNOW you can do it again
    7. less body surface area so using less fake tan haha saving $$

    yip sagging boobs, but i found a better bra helps heaps, but they still arent the same as they use to be when younger & smaller! other is that people get jealous cos they are use to you fat and dont think its right that you are small. But screw them! i was skinny before was only due to new love & babies that i got fat, now im getting back to OLD ME!!!! YAY!

    Correct me if I'm wrong... but that REALLY sounds like you're not eating anywhere NEAR enough. If anything your skin and hair should be better, and if you're losing weight the healthy way it shouldn't really effect your period...

    As I said, please correct me if I'm wrong, but I was told that those things are major red alerts!

    That sounds like me when I had an eating disorder. What in the world are you doing? o.O

    Worst- boobs are nearly gone :( and struggling to keep buying new clothes so living in jeans and hoodies plus being so cold all the time.

    Best- feeling great, I can buy bras from anywhere, fitting smaller clothes, have more confidence, and still getting smaller.

    Worse:having to put my most favourite trousers up in attic cos they kept falling down
    Best:finding a bag of smaller trousers in the attic and finding they fit!

    (my boobs haven't shrunk, just changed shape..and not for the better!)

    ooh that wasn't meant to get so much attention haha! I'm unsure if it has to do with my diet or my obsession with bleaching and dying my hair! probably not as bad as it sounds!

    That does sound like an eating disorder...your body will only produce periods if you have enough body fat and therefore hormones to have them. Sweetie, I think you might need to seek some medical advice x

    Thanks for all your concern guys :) I have been seeing a doctor about that particular issue for the past 5 months with numerous tests. They're not concerned about it being related to weight loss but don't have an anwser yet either

    Worst - smaller breasts, excess skin, having to buy new clothes all the time!
    Best - fitting into smaller clothes and finding clothes in almost any store that fit, the general feeling of being slim

    BEST

    ♥ General feeling of well-being; being able to walk up stairs without getting out of breath
    ♥ Having more energy in the bedroom :wink:
    ♥ Looking thinner in the face; folks noticing that I've lost weight
    ♥ Having baggy shirts instead of tight-fitting ones
    ♥ Getting out on the bike and going swimming again; feeling knackered but really buzzing after a workout.
    ♥ Thinking about all the shops I'll be able to visit once I'm no longer a plus size.

    WORST

    ◘ My man boobs are now more noticeable as the belly melts away


    So on the whole a lot more pros than cons :happy:

    Best: smallest size since high school; feeling more confident; being able to shop anywhere; not having to dress to hide problem areas; can go buy a new wardrobe; feeling the healthiest I've been in a long time and being able to hike mountains! I could go on and on here - so many positive attributes!
    Worst: having to buy a new wardrobe hehe - because I do not have any clothes in the size I am now... thank goodness for my friend who also lost weight and has given me some clothes to get thru! It's bittersweet for sure... LOL but I'd rather have it this way!

    Best: Being able to chase after my step kids and have them running and laughing (Not sure if it is with me or at me)

    Worst: I don't have a worst. I honestly can't think of any negatives. I am happy my boobs are shrinking as it makes many things easier.

    Life is amazingy good with this small weight loss, I can't wait to get more weight off and go for goal!! All benefits.......
