-On hot summer days I'm not gonna miss the friction of my pants rubbing against my thighs and causing the most painful rash
-Not gonna miss having to stretch my clothes before squeeze into them

    I'm not going to miss not fitting into amusement park rides. I'm not going to miss the stares. I'm not going to miss the heavy breathing after a flight of stairs. I'm not going to miss size 24's. I'm not going to miss my lack of self-control. I'm not going to miss taking up two chairs. I'm not going to miss seeing 287 on the scale. I'm not going to miss seeing 2 hundred ANYTHING on the scale! I'm not going to miss the awkward comments made by others.

    I won't miss:

    - Paying twice as much for clothing
    - Being tired all the time
    - Not fitting in regular chairs
    - Having such a big food bill

    Can you imagine the money we save by not eating out and eating so much all the time?

    I won't miss:
    --trying on everything in my closet before I can leave the house, because nothing looks right once I'm actually wearing it
    --dreading having a camera pointed at me
    --coming out of the dressing room depressed because nothing worked for me.
    I have a lot of clothing related goals, it appears. That's ironic, since I wear one of three hoodies nearly every day now, unless I have to work. Hmmmm...

    I will not miss hating seeing myself in pictures, or having a hard time bending over to tie my shoes or to even cut my toe nails lol. I hate that the smallest amount of activity makes me sweat like crazy. I won't miss sitting down having my stomach spill over my jeans :(

    *double checking my pants are pulled up so no one behind me gets a eye full of crack
    *Painting my own toes instead of paying someone else
    *Bruises from bumming into things coz I forgot how big/wide I am
    * Sweating and panting like a dog after one set of stairs

    -Things to do with my thighs.
    -Things to do with cameras.
    -Things to do with seat belts.
    -Things to do with shirt sleeves.
    -Things to do with sweating.


    Mostly, thoughts of the "Why bother to try to be attractive?" type.

    I have to agree with all of you. I'm not going to miss:

    * paying too much for clothes
    * drinking to many pills to control all my obesity related illness
    * shopping in the plus size department
    * feeling out of breath after walking a couple of steps
    * my low self esteem
    * avoiding high heals shoes
    * depression because of my weight

    What I'm looking forward:
    To feel healthy
    Wear heals
    Feel sexy
    Wear dresses and skirts
    Walk, run, dance
    Weight under 200 pounds
    Security, confidence,
    Wearing a bikini for the first time in my life

    I will not miss having to buy frumpy clothes just because that's what fits (looking forward to buying some new CUTE clothes!)

    I will not miss getting out of breath and having everyone ask "Are you okay?" and having to explain that, no, I'm just out of shape.

    I will not miss my mom always making snide little comments about how big I am or what I'm eating.

    I will not miss my waistband digging into my skin.

    Good riddance to:

    Sore ankles and knees
    Wrestling my body in and out of small cars and huge clothes
    My fat squishing out of the sides of those stupid plastic lawn chairs
    Full coverage swim suits
    The feeling of being suffocated by my own body

    A slight variation on this, I was looking for a shirt in my wardrobe during the week then only to remember I have donated it away because it was to big. :happy: So I am missing something :laugh:

    Went to buy a Ski Jacket yesterday, glad I went to the store because I was going to buy a Large online but in the store found a medium fitted perfectly :drinker:

    Being ashamed of how I look in a bathing suit.
    Sweating through dress shirts.
    Getting out of breath running up a flight of stairs.
    Being able to eat a disgusting amount in a sitting.
    Getting sore/numb feet after a few hours of standing.
    Not feeling confident about talking to women (or people in general).

    I will not miss starting arguments just to create an excuse to stay home
    I will not miss being pissed at myself for letting myself go
    I will not miss the huge clothes I try to hide under
    I will not miss avoiding the camera - my little boy should have as many pics of his moma as I do of him
    I will not miss the negativity I have for myself and the negativity that I think (in my mind) other people have of me
    I will not miss all of the garbage I used to eat

    Thanks for this thread...That made me feel good.
