Not being able to wear all my favorite clothes because they are too big now. Spending money to buy a new wardrobe is really disappointing. I know I'm supposed to be happy about the weight loss and yaadi yaadi yaada but I can't believe most of my perfectly good suits need to be altered/put away.
Was there anything that got you genuinely sad after losing weight?
Edit: I'm very, very happy with the new look. I'd never want to go back to old weight. This is just curiosity on unexpected bummers

I'm glad I lost a little weight, but now my work pants are all too big on me and I'm constantly pulling them up all day. But this means I get to go shopping

still not feeling like myself and wanting to cry all the time because i make myself sick cos ive gone all saggy0

The ONLY thing I hate is bones are painful to sit on/ lay on. Sometimes I can never get comfortable. It hurts to sit on the floor, or bleachers or any place for too long.0

Oh there's no self-esteem handed to you at the end as a prize, no throngs of men that love you or dynamic personality fix that makes all your flaws disappear behind the new curtain of badass confidence that comes with goal weight?
wait none of that comes with goal weight?
You mean Im supposed to be working on that stuff all along too?
Are you crazy all they said was eat less move more.

Youre telling me you've never encountered someone that was sad because when they reached goal weight they didnt have the body they wanted and had to work hard to keep going and go back over everything they learned and find out what they did wrong and what they need to do now?0 -
Nothing. I look older, get colder easier, had to spend cash on new clothes, can't eat half the *kitten* I love... blah blah blah... still not sad, in fact quite happy.

I am hating buying new clothes too. I mean, I like it, but it's a lot of money and a lot of pain in the butt.0

I admit, I miss having DD breasts - I had quite a collection of fancy bras, then having to get rid of them and replace them before I am done losing all the weight - that made me sad but I think I can work with it

As weird as it sounds, I'm having trouble actually finding stuff that I like in my size (on the rare occassion that I do go shopping).0

i actually love having to buy smaller jeans, it's fun!

My new lack of T&A...0

I have noticed this too! I am usually freezing while everyone is in shorts and a t-shirt I am wearing a sweater. Moving back to Minnesota might be a very bad idea :noway:0 -

I miss my boobs (and so does my hubby) :blushing:0

OMG I feel bad for even saying this but I hate the way my flabby skin sounds when I run up the stairs. I've never enjoyed shopping, but now its a bit more enjoyable since I have more options now. But don't even get me started on my chest (notice I didn't call them boobs)...ughhhh! I HATE IT!!!!0

In clothes I totally look better. With out clothes... well is just as bad as it was 125lbs ago.
But I will live with that because of being heathier and all the other positives that come along with it.
Oh an my boobs! Went from a DD to a C. Now I wonder what they will be when I have lost my last 45.

My boobs and some very nice work suits. Happy to trade these in for being fit, slim, muscled, not having any back fat, being able to wear jersey fabric and having no extra rolls, a slim face, better choice in clothes, off the peg bras and better skin.0
-
My feet kind of shrank so now I have to buy heels in a 10 instead of an 11, but I really need a 10.5 which doesn't exist. Still happy not to have that extra 50lbs though.0

Have all your favorites altered, that's what I did. It's cheaper than buying new and you get to continue to wear your favorite things0
-
There are some clothes that I will miss but I love shopping for new stuff! Totally worth it =D0
-
Same stuff as before I lost weight.
Ditto. I kinda think it might always be there, but workin' on it!0 -
I thought it would be easier to find clothing that fits, its not.
I get colder easier.
I thought I would feel better about myself/my body, I don't.
I get sick of people commenting about my food choices/weight/body/size when I'm not even at my goal weight yet.0 -
Finding out some of the people around me are not what I thought they were. X0

All the money I wasted on clothes that don't fit me anymore0
