    Is there anything you miss about being fat?

    I'm on my way to being skinny, not quite there yet, but I was thinking about something the other night, when my belly is gone, what will I put my plate on?

      My face. Not used to it, don't like looking at it. I think it looked best about 35 pounds ago.

      Not that I can think of ........or is this a trick question ????
    • Posts: 3,472 Member
      Not a trick question. I don't know what I'm going to miss if anything. I've been fat my whole life and this is the first time I've been even close to serious about losing weight, so I don't know what the skinny side of life has in store. Just curious to see if anyone actually misses something now that they've lost their weight.

      Would you want to gain the 35 back?

      This is going to sound stupid, but I miss being left alone. I miss being able to walk into a store and not get stared and winked at by guys. While I think it's sweet that guys step in and try to pick up my dog food bag and put it on the check out counter, I am capable and you're not getting my number just because you can lift a bag that I also have no problem lifting. this is probably the biggest reason I've been dragging my feet to lose the rest of my weight. I don't like the attention.

      I miss my bigger boobs & butt. Even though it was just fat that made them big, they were still bigger than what I have now. :ohwell:

      Over the weekend I visited some friends and they all told me now that I lost a few lbs I look like one of my brothers..when i was really heavy I looked like my other brother...I believe when I reach my goal weight I'll look like ME so I guess I will miss looking like my brothers LOL

      Being able to comfortably sleep on my side! haha There is no cushion anymore, and my hipbone is *sharp*!

      Yeah, my boobs. They were the only things that looked really nice when I was fat, and now that I'm losing weight, they're definitely going to be remade once I reach my goal. *smdh*

      My mattress used to be more comfortable when I was bigger, now it hurts my back, and my boobs ;-)

      i think everything i miss is also a positive- and not just in a 'you aren't fat nay more' kind of way.

      not miss exactly, but not thinking i was fat? i don't know if that makes sense, but i think i'm more dissatisfied and judgemental when i look in a mirror now, though i know in my mind i look better (just can't see it through my eyes!)

      and i can't eat as much as i used to so never have puddings any more!; again, this is good cos i don't feel compelled to eat if i go out for a meal or something, whereas before i would do and kind of eat for the sake of it.

      Well, I can honestly say I'm not going to miss MY boobs!
    • Posts: 243 Member
      I miss my boobs which I guess is common for some and I miss eating without thinking.
      BUT I love the way I feel in my own body so much more.

      I can't think of one thing that I miss about being bigger. I'm happy that I made the changes that I have made. Now, it is all about staying fit.
