I bought a nice pair of boots, knee high...they arrived today and of course, they don't fit on my calves. Grrr! Well, at least next winter I'll have a nice pair to wear!

What little things do you hate?

    I have the same problem! I've always had big calves. Add running for a few years on top of that and throw on getting fat and my calves don't fit in anything. I think they were like 17 inches around last time I measured. They're the calves that most guys want for themselves. :P I wanted to get some cute boyfriend capris this past summer and couldn't even squeeze a pair my size on over my calves. Once I lose the weight, I'm getting a nice pair of boots and skinny jeans.

    Yep, I'd love me some big muscly calves... don't think genetics are on my side with that one though :(

    What I hate about being fat, so many things... but ultimately the fact that I have never really been happy in myself of viewed myself as being at all attractive. I look forward to changing that view of myself.

    Little tiny chirs at bars or restaurants that don't allow me to sit comfortably! Hearing the step stool creak, hoping it really will hold 250 lbs.!

    ( I bought new knee high boots and they fit now, not all scrunched half way down, yay! You'll get there!)

    Even though I've lost 60 lbs I still find some boots that don't fit my calves, it sucks. But I also have plenty of others that do fit.

    Not being able to wear skirts because my legs were chafing. I too have a pair of boots which won't zip up but I'm not sure losing weight will fix that, dang calf muscles *shakes fist*

    I hate going to my friends' parties when there are people (girls) I don't know, because he has a hot tub and of course I wanna hang out in it, but my big belly is embarrassing! This is happening tomorrow, so I just have to think positive and not let it get me down. I also hate the way a lot of my shirts fit me...they ride up and I have to constantly pull them down.

    I'm so pumped to lose this weight though, I'm letting all of these factors motivate me to get to the body I feel comfortable in

    Not being able to sit comfortably wth my purse along side me in a movie theater seat, being nervous when I went to my son's school that the kids would tease him because of me, having to "take a breather" after climing the stairs, having my fashion sense be "what is big enough" vs.what is my style. I have a million that inspire me to keep my lost weight off!

    I feel like I have a beach ball in my lap when I bend over to tie my shoes. Also, I cant find clothes to fit me right.

    I hate taking up too much space and not fitting places.. This irene 100% weight related because I'm above average height with a large bone structure so I'll always have this issue. Can't I just be petite for a day? Lol

    Haha! I will unfortunately always have slightly larger calves, and wil always struggle with knee high boots. But, try some calf raises, and you may get to that part of the goal sooner. :)

    (as for me, my calves will get max, 1/4 an inch smaller. :( I'll be suck with 15.X" calves forever)

    I've never been "fat" and certainly never considered my calves big until I was looking for horseback riding boots and the size I needed to fit over my calf was 4 shoe sizes larger than I wear! I emailed my husband to tell him the story because I thought it was funny and he replied "when did you ever think you had small calves??" :grumble:

    I hate being fat because I am not my authentic self. I am a shell of the person I could be because I am often in a food induced coma, tired, negative, and unmotivated. Also, my 7 year old son's friend told him I am the fattest person on the planet. That hurt.

    Crease marks on my belly from my jeans when I sit for a while.
    And when I was single, the worst thing was hanging out with a group of single friends and being visibly overlooked by men.

    not being able to bend in pretzel shapes. kama sutra is harder when you're fat.

    This!
    That's another thing-- Often times during sex, instead of enjoying it, all I can think about is how much my hips hurts or how unflattering that angle is for my belly or chins.
