    This may not make sense, but I miss feeling the way I look. When I was fat, I felt fat. Now that i'm thinner, I still feel fat. I've been around my goal for almost a year, and I still feel fat which is frustrating.

    My advice would be to try to see yourself the way you are everyday. That way when you do reach your goal, you don't feel like youre still fat. I've had a really hard time adjusting and it's led to some not-so-good habits as of late. Thankfully I'm doing better with those issues, but it's something I wish I had been warned about!

    Hopefully that made sense...

    Being a comfortable body temp (I'm freezing all the time now), filling out my skin (and yes, I DO lift!), and most importantly, my boobs!

    I miss being my own heat source! I'm cold all the time now! :laugh:

    This! I am freezing already. I cannot imagine how cold I will be when I reach my goal. Doesn't matter, though. I still want to get there. I'll be able to buy cute sweaters in little sizes! :wink:

    Im actually at the opposite end as many/most are on here....as short as just 5 years ago and pretty much all my life, I was in peak physical conditioning...then life happened and poof, im now 50 pounds over weight and have yet to experience the loss of weight like some have and finding out anything that I miss about being fat. So for me, my response is that I miss being able to run for miles and being able to eat anything I want and it just turns into more calories to fuel my muscle mass. I know its not the same and your prolly thinking " poor lil ole Troy " lol. but the psychology is the same. Good luck to you all on your quest for health and fitness.

    Honestly, being invisible. I liked being able to slip by unnoticed, doing as a I please. Now it's a bit more difficult for me to do that, sometimes I garner attention.

    I don't miss much. Yeah, my *kitten* and boobs are smaller but they look/feel better to me now.

    I DO miss a few really cute outfits I can't wear anymore. Other than that, nothing.

    Can you get them tailored?

    I think part of of me will miss eating without caring about the nutritional content. When you are naive about it, there is no guilt to eating it. Now that I know and log everything, I am over cautious now and actually feel guilty for anything not healthy. And when I do, I'm hard on myself. But I tell myself "you can eat cake d*****, just budget your calories and move your butt to earn it!" Then the results of this technique are rewarding and you can still eat "sinful" treats and still feel human. Some things are not worth living without and chocolate is one of them :)

    I think I looked better with a little bit fuller face, but I shouldn't complain. I sure don't want it back!

    I think the only thing I really miss is that I feel cold quite a bit more frequently now, but it's not too bad, since my body will produce heat at a moment's notice if I start moving (the benefits of moving a lot more I guess!).

    Other than that, nothing. I love what I eat, I enjoy what I do, and I can't say I'd ever go back. But I will always, ALWAYS keep myself in check!
