  • smaller boobs!! :sad: :sad: :sad: :sad:
  • I'm not sad, but I don't like that I've lost so much weight in my face/neck area that now I'm considering plastic surgery/Botox to fix the saggy skin under my chin.

    Oh, and fine lines on the face SUCK!!!

    I'm not vain though... :wink:
  • Congratulations on your weight loss. Ask around your area for a good seamstress and have them altered for a fraction of the cost of buying new .

    It's obvious to me that people treat people differently because of their weight.

    There are exercises you can do to tighten things up on your neck and chin!

    Nothing makes me sad... I'm really happy about the weight loss... I'm blessed because one of my friends have been letting me go shopping in her closets... yes I typed closetS. So I have cloths in the now size 10 that I am. In addition I'm was able to pass my previouse size cloths on to several other friends who are shedding the pounds. Sizes ranging from 18 - 12... At my peak I was a size 18.

    I would say I'll miss my clothes, but I hate the clothes I wear now. Nothing but shorts, t-shirts, two pairs of jeans, and some band t-shirts.

    Plus, the band shirts I will either continue to wear no matter how baggy, or I'll make them into an awesome blanket!

    I look way younger, I have clients at my salon literally think I just graduated highschool ( I'm 22, married with 2 kids, so I don't love the looks I get talking about my family, when they think Im 18). Ally my favorite clothes are too big, having trouble shopping because everythin fits off ( I lose slower in my tummy than anywhere else so pants will fit the waist but be too big else wear etc, and my body dress size is a 10, my boobs dress size are a 14, so yeah dresses dont happen much) and I cant afford new clothes all the time. My body is not what I thought it would be after loosing 80lbs and I am pretty discouraged by this. Still happy with what Ive lost so far though

    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.

    lmao ^^^^ this .. for sure lol

    Definitely this! Booo for the bony butt! I had to sit on my jacket the other day because I couldn't take it anymore!
  • I liked being invisible. Now strangers talk to me. ugh.

    Yes!! I've always been kinda quiet and a wallflower. Now it's like I'm being noticed against my will! lol

    I'm upset that I lost my boobs and my boyfriend comments on how small they are now.

    I love shopping so I don't mind that I had to buy a new wardrobe.
  • Losing 20 pounds and not being able to see a darn bit of difference.

    Seriously- i had to buy new clothes-and expensive bras AGAIN- good thing my boobs are the same size DD- but the bust line is smaller from 38 to 36 and it seems every two months everything doesnt fit any more-so I buy alot of 5 dollar shirts and cheap 10 dollar jeans or jeggings (what ever). so i want to work my booty off real hard till Christmas- and buy the final clothes and maintain- seeing as im ten pounds from my goal weight.
  • my boobs shrinking faster than everything else!!!

    Having to buy new clothes is a double-edge sword. I love to shop, but I hate replacing things that were perfectly find before but look totally stupid now.

    Today I'm wearing a tunic (too big) leggings, and tall boots, that last year were clinging to my legs at the top. Now they are really baggy and I can stick my whole hand down them...so before I had a hard time getting them to fit loose enough and now they are too loose. Never happy! :(
  • The only "complaint" I have right now, if you can even call it that, is not understanding clothes anymore. I was heavy for so long that I got the hang of what was flattering and what wasn't.... now? No idea. I pin a lot of things that I like on Pintrest but I just can't seem to figure out a "style" or what I like anymore.

    However, it is absolutely GLORIOUS to just grab something off of a hanger and buy it without trying it on. Glorious.

    I totally understand this! Being able to wear smaller sizes means more options and I am always afraid people will look at me and say "Look at her trying to dress like a teenager! Why doesn't she dress her age." With a 22 year old daughter it's great to be able to wear her clothes but may not always be "my age" appropriate. Who Knows???

    If they do think that they're probably just jealous! Wear what makes you feel good!

    Hmm, I guess that's why I need a bigger cushion on my seat - I didn't realize it before - I was just uncomfortable. I have no butt to begin with... And, as someone else said, it is somewhat hard to look at food and not think about how many calories are in it and perform the mental calculation to eat or not to eat...

    Just three things.

    1) That I couldn't truly appreciate my hard work for over a year. Even after losing the weight, I still saw myself as bigger and had a hard time shopping for clothes or seeing myself significantly smaller. (On the PLUS side, I appreciate me and my effort NOW!)
    2) The bony part. Hard to sleep on my side without a pillow between my knees... and sitting on a hard surface for long periods of time hurts. (On the PLUS side, easy enough to manage)
    3) I am cold ALL of the time. Always freezing. (But, on the PLUS side, I appreciate summer SO much more!)

    Disclaimer: I am NOT sad at all about my weight loss and every little "negative" isn't even .01% of the positives, BUT:

    My boobs are saggy and I no longer have that DD cleavage

    I have great abs but they don't look great because of my loose skin

    My tailbone hurts when I do situps; and my knees hurt when I try to sleep in the fetal position

    I am cold pretty much all the time unless I am working out

    I used to be able to down the drinks and now I am ready for bed after two


    The one thing that makes me ANGRY? People who were rude to me when I was fat. Or treated me like I was invisible. Or friends who treated me like a doormat, although I acknowledge that I let them. When men notice me now and try to hit on me, it isn't flattering at all, its almost demeaning. Yet, I understand it - people are attracted to to thinner, healthier people and that is just the law of the land.
