    My pants are constantly falling down. This was once an NSV for me because I'd never needed a belt before .. Buuttt, some of my work pants (which is what I wear almost everyday) don't have belt loops which means no belt.
    This is my problem too, my work pants (which I also wear 5-6 days of the week) don't have belt loops and they are constantly needing to be pulled up! I'd hate to have to buy a million more pairs of work pants.

    My pants are constantly falling down.

    This happens to me at the gym!! I have to keep pulling them up when I run on the treadmill. :laugh:

    I'm scared of my wedding band getting loose :(

    I think i will have to buy it again if it stops fitting me...

    It was a tiny bit too small to start with, now its comfortable and i just hope my fingers dont shrink too much...

    My FAVORITE pair of skinny jeans are too loose after one wear instead of 3 or 4, now, and I can't afford to do laundry that much! That being said, I wouldn't mind if it weren't 32º and snowing outside, requiring me to wear some kind of skinny pant leg to wear big boots overtop. I feel your pain! I've actually lost two rings that were dear to me, though only one due to my fingers being smaller. That being said, my ring size was always 7-8 and that's rather big for a 5'3 girl! Now that I'm a 5-6 I feel much more elegant. :3 *end randomly long rant*

    All of the weight I've lost appears to be from my butt and thighs...and NONE from my belly. So all my pants are waaaayyyy too big around everything but my waist...it's nice to have some extra room, but I can't fit into the next size down! :/

    I look like a hobo in my winter coat from last year, and I wasn't planning on buying a new one for at least another month, but I'm FREEZING! :sad:

    Clothes! I made several sweatskirts (long skirts made out of sweat pants) and now they are literally sliding off of me. They are so comfy, I just adore them, but now way too big. If I alter them it will ruin the stretchy waist. I don't want to make more until I hit my goal weight, which is 48 pounds away...blah.

    I've been wearing my wedding and engagement ring on my middle finger for the last month :cry: Until we have the money to get it sized, and until I decide that I am 'small enough' :wink: it will have to do. My husband doesn't love that it is not on my ring finger but happy that I am still wearing it and haven't lost it.

    I lost favourite ring today! Damn, I knew it was getting loose... Anyone else with *annoying* NSVs?

    I did that too! A few years ago ... my engagement ring ... $10,000 ring slipped off in some wrapping paper in the bottom of a trash bag. We narrowed it down to that being the ONLY place it could be, and since we had taken the trash out to the big dumpster earlier in the day, my husband jumped into the dumpster, dug around and found OUR trash (yes, it was gross) and there, in the bottom of the bag, with some broken glass, was my ring. So LUCKY to have found it and to have a husband that would root around in a dumpster LOL! I hope you find yours.

    Well, if I had paid $10,000 for an engagement ring, you can bet I'd be rooting around in the garbage to find it, too. LOL :laugh:

    Freezing and being in the unholy world of 'Between plus size and not.' FML. LOL

    Both of these. Plus sizes are too big in most stores, but some cute, trendy stores, the biggest size is too small. GRR! :explode:

    Most people would say this is good but it is damn annoying ..

    My pants are constantly falling down. This was once an NSV for me because I'd never needed a belt before .. Buuttt, some of my work pants (which is what I wear almost everyday) don't have belt loops which means no belt.

    I find it frustrating and am VERY self conscious about having to yank up my pants every time I feel them slip or get up from a chair - UGH!!

    I know the solution - go buy new clothes but my whole plan was not to spend money during my "transition stage" and go wild once I hit goal weight!!! *end rant*

    Thanks for the awesome thread ;) And I'm so sorry to hear about your ring!! I stopped wearing mine due to the same fear..

    I actually just had to do this. My pants are always too long, so my mom suggested taking a little fabric off the bottom and sewing on my own belt loops. This way, they match my pants and everything. I literally have zero extra income to buy new clothes, so this was a big help.

    Freezing cold all the time

    Ring had to be re-sized because it just kept flying off

    All my old clothes are too big. I bought a few 'interim' clothes but now they're too big. I'm still dressed like a clown at work

    My shoes are loose


    Loving every minute of it :bigsmile:

    I just dropped off 4 pair of slacks at the seamstres yestereday to have them all taken in. Only $10 a pair and it'll be like a new wardrobe. The good thing....I'm in between sizes anyways so these will actually fit.

    I just had my wedding band downsized a few months ago. I'm now a 4.75!

    I took off all of my rings about a month ago after one fell off in the car way too easily. I'll wait until I'm close to my goal to get them resized so hopefully I'll only have to do it once.

    The clothes thing can be kind of annoying money-wise, but think of the money you're saving long-term because you're improving your health.

    -Being cold! (my fingers mainly)
    -Having to buy 3 different wardrobes on my way down the sizes
    -I actually spend (waste) time trying on different clothes in shops to find out which i look the coolest in lol (used to be, yeah ill have that, i look same (fat) in everything)
    -Skinny peoples clothes cost way too damn much
    -oh and answering the questions, "wow how much you lost now? and "what did you weigh and what do you weigh now?" these were good NSVs that people noticed and took interest in my achievements, however after the 1000th time, it becomes abit of a gripe lol

    all of these are nothing though.... cos i love been a skinny Stu :)
