    ~ I don't miss the fact that I couldn't wear jeans because i couldn't find my size.

    ~ I don't miss my knee pain after walking.

    .

    - I won't miss the ability not to run for more than 3 minutes.

    - I won't miss my insecurity when people take photos of/with me.

    I won't miss:

    - Being out of breath at my university due to all of the hills and stairs
    - Never finding anything to wear in my huge closet because nothing fits well
    - Wearing to two same things because of the issue above and never wanting to buy "fat" clothes
    - Not having much self-esteem and never wanting attention put on myself due to worrying about others noticing how heavy I am
    - Hating and never taking any pictures because of my weight
    - Worrying that I may pass away far too early due to my eating habits and weight

    I am not going to miss the fat jokes people make about me

    I am not going to miss my big boobs

    I am not going to miss being called ugly by the guys who pass me bye

    I don't miss:-

    Hating the heat and getting sweaty at the drop of a hat.

    Feeling like I am taking up way too much seat room on the bus and that the person sitting next to me resents me for it.

    Feeling tired and lethargic all the time.

    Feeling self conscious and wanting to be invisible.

    I will not miss:
    - Feeling too fat even to go to the gym ( thinking people are staring at me)
    - Feeling self conscious even with my partner of 7 years
    - My thighs chaffing and it being so painful I could cry most days
    - The feeling of being judged for everything I eat

    I am not going to miss my step grandmother emotionally abusing me about my weight and barking every time I eat.

    My grandmother used to say things like this: "Ya know, Katie, if you just lost the weight, all the boys would be after you". The irony is that when my grandmother died she weighed about 350 lbs.

    I'm not going to miss being sick to my stomach looking at myself or being afraid to go out in public...
    (I'm aware I'm pregnant now, but this is in general, not the pregnancy).

    I have to agree with a lot of what has been posted. Mostly:

    not having anything nice to wear that also looks/fits right
    going to specialty stores and paying too much or going to regular stores and stuck with the ugly tent clothes
    Being the fat one in the crowd of friends
    Getting up in front of people (which I do for a living as a trainer) and feeling judged just by my weight
    Being out of breath and tired all the time


    **what I'm looking forward to is buying a new wedding band. I had to have my original one CUT OFF because it was cutting off the circulation from all the weight I gained.

    I agree with everyone too.
    I had gotten were I hated my pic taken and I have been known to throw away pics of myself because I thought they were ugly and I was a shamed of myself.
    I won't miss doing that, I don't miss my double chin, don't miss the muffin top, don't miss people talking behind my back, don't miss not having enough energy to get thru the day, and the list could go on and on

    Hating the heat and getting sweaty at the drop of a hat.

    Yesss. I thought my hatred of the heat was just something that had changed in me, until I realized it was because I was uncomfortable in the heat being overweight.

    My list:
    Hating photos of myself
    No clothes fitting properly
    Being the chubby friend
    Men on the street who used to check me out, looking right through me. (vain, I know)

    I'm not going to miss
    - being told "you have such a pretty face...if only I'd lose a few pounds I'd be so much prettier".
    -walking down the beach and trying to keep my sarong between my legs to avoid the painful chafe.
    -feeling like EVERYONE is looking at me when I walk into a room and me feeling like it's because I'm the fattest person there.
    -trying on clothes in a size I think is going to fit and being pissed off when it's too small.
    -feeling like I have to justify to everyone every single thing that goes in my mouth.
    -taking a picture of myself from above my head so that I look skinnier.
    -feeling like a failure every.single.day.

    I won't miss bing afraid that I'm going to grow out of my favorite brands. H&M only goes to size 12 now, and some styles I can't fit in because I'm too big.

    I won't miss trying on 10 things and only liking 1

    I won't miss buying larger and larger sizes, or going in the dressing room with my old size and having it be too tight

    I won't miss people buying me clothes even bigger than my size because I look that big

    I won't miss not being able t keep up with the kids I watch

    Having only two shirts that fit and having to stretch them out to cover my gut. First thing I did when I lost 100 pounds is go clothes shopping, I love all my new clothes.

    Not looking good in clothes, feeling horrible about myself, my kid being brutally honest about my fatness as he gets old enough to, not being able to do same activity level my family can do.
