    Since my list will go on for about 35 paragraphs about this topic, I would say that one of the things I really hate is being ignored and overlooked by women. After all, who wants to be with an obese man? After being single for quite a long time due to my weight and from experience, my answer to that question is..."nobody" Well, now that I have dropped more than 50 lbs......I'm getting more looks from women. Even some of the women that didn't want anything to do with me (just because of my weight) are beginning to look my way and find some interest In me. My weight loss has dramatically changed my looks. I will post before and after pictures once I reach my goal (I don't want to jinx anything!!!). I can see the slimmer and younger me starting to show....and I loooove it.

    I'm not fat anymore, but mostly I hated the feeling of wanting to hide. In public, I did my best to go unnoticed. Even among family and friends, I tried to stay on the perimeter of things, hoping nobody was looking at me or judging me.

    I hated avoiding mirrors and cameras and dressing rooms and shorts and skirts and dresses and sleeveless tops. I hated constantly trying to hide my body from anyone and everyone ... I wouldn't share a dressing room with my twin sister for fear that she might think I was fat (like it was a big secret). I hated wondering what it was like to be someone else. And I hated thinking that being a good person doesn't matter unless you're also good-looking.

    And something I still think about a lot is how I used to try to convince myself that it was okay to be fat (and I'm talking 100+ lbs overweight). I honestly use to try to talk myself into just accepting it, thinking I would be happier. And now I think "How could you do that to yourself? How could try to talk yourself into NOT living life to the fullest?" I still feel guilty about that every day.

    Being so tired and slow all the time. I also hate having to say I "can't" go places/do things because whatever it is won't accommodate my size (amusement parks, theaters, plane seats, etc).

    My body is so uncomfortable, my boobs choke me at night, I can't even reach around and scratch parts of my back anymore. I don't recognize myself in the mirror, it's as if I'm looking at a stranger, and most of the time I just don't look. I rush to "cover up" once out of the shower, even if home alone. My weight has gone up and down my whole life, but the last three years have seen me become obese, and obese is nothing like being "overweight". It limits my mobility, even sex has become problematic. I'm 51 now and parts of me hurt, but I know I hurt worse because of the weight. Pain, depression, low self-esteem, not caring about my appearance. It's a vicious cycle. Ugh.

    Worrying about fitting into chairs. Hearing chairs (and couches) creak at a friends house when I sit down, and thinking how mortified I would be if I had broken it!

    By the way, I have lost 172 pounds since August 2011!

    -The looks you get from people.

    -The eternity it takes to get un-fat.

    -The fact that there is such a limited clothing selection.

    -Hip fat.
