Bad things that have happened since I starting losing weight

1. I can't eat as much as I used to, because I actually recognize what it feels like to be full.
2. My spandex pants keep falling down while I Zumba.
3. I am not satisfied with eating box dinners, and insist on actually preparing wholesome meals.
4. I get upset when I can't exercise 4 times per week.

1) this is a common one, but I am always always cold. I end up apologizing to everyone because I lost my insulation and I live in the desert.
2) I no longer support my local pharmacy as I stopped 1/2 of my medications since they were no longer needed (The pharmacists knew me by name)
3) Same with doctors, my checkups are getting scheduled with less frequency
4) Supermarket checkout people no longer want to come to my house for dinner
5) My dogs expect to be taken out now and attack me when I go to the door (on the other hand, I can now slip out the door without letting them escape)
4) I annoy my friends as I can now borrow their clothes
5) Shopping for clothes has too many options now that I can buy clothes from everywhere, not just plus size stores
6) I have credit cards that I cut up from disuse as they were for stores that I can no longer shop at. Sorry Lane Bryant, Avenue, Catherine's
7) I have found out that too big underwear is just as uncomfortable as too small underwear
8) My bra size has changed into something unrecognizable and apparently hard to find
9) Victoria's Secret is something that I can finally learn
10) I spend less on jewelry as I no longer need to make anything larger to fit me thereby driving down the profit they make off of me
11) my heating bill has gone up... see number 1...
12) my storage closet is full. As I have no idea what to do with the size 26/28 clothes I had
13) clothes that were too small for me before are now too big and have moved to the storage closet
14) my bedroom closets are comparatively empty and the clothes in there look lonely
15) I've had to get my glasses adjusted... twice... the first time the guy commented on how bowed out the frames were
16) people comment on now much happier I seem and they now want to talk to me. So I apparently lost the surly protection field I once had
17) baggy leggings = can we say unattractive?

I love this post!

I get cold more easily because I'm losing my insulation!

I can't handle greasy foods anymore
I have more workout clothes then regular clothes
I gave my Christmas list to my family and thy commented it was all workout.gym.kicthen related lol
I have 1 pair of jeans that fot
i have 1 pair of trousers that fit
My shoes are too big
my boobs shrank
i'm always cold
i hate rest days.. i force them occasionally
Sugar gives me a headache
I rarely watch tv and can't relate to half the people i know, since my life consists of working out. reading about nutrition trying new recipes and playing sports.
I spend a lot more of food
you can see 5 pounds if i gain it
I'm always cold
I think i have to give up beer.. (crown is staying though!!)
I get shin splints

* I had to go Black Friday shopping for the first time ever, not to buy gifts, but because all my dresses are too big and I don't have anything to wear to holiday parties and I can't afford to pay full price.
* I carefully trained my dog to enjoy sleeping in, and now I'm awake and ready for our walk and he is hiding under the covers and refusing to go out in the cold!
* I have no money, but I covet things like cashmere tights and fleece leggings! I'm always freezing!
* I'm never satisfied anymore! I'm not even at my goal weight yet, but I'm full of new fitness goals that seem as out of reach as a normal BMI did last year.
* I have a long list of healthy recipes that look fabulous, but it takes me so long to eat my way through one that I will never get through the list of things I want to try.

So many problems! You can see I am doing my part to keep the economy going and make up for any savings in soap and gas.

I am only about half way to my goal, and already, bad things are happening!

1. Looking older because there's less fat to fill in the wrinkles
2. Feeling crummy if I can't work out one day
3. Unwanted attention from men much older than I am
4. Loose skin
5. Underwear too big, bras too big
6. Figuring out what to wear now. Old clothes too big, but don't want to spend a lot of money on new clothes that also won't fit soon, so have been shopping at Goodwill. (I love the clothing exchange idea, wonder how to find in my area?)
7. People who ask what I've been doing, then when I tell them working out every day, and using MFP, they don't believe me.

Ah, there were worse problems when I was fat(ter)

My clothes are too big!
When I buy new clothes that fit, it is not long before they also are to big!
My boobs are small :O
I get embarrassed of all the compliments

- My boobs went from being virtually non-existent to totally non-existent.
- I had to buy all new clothes TWICE (after the first 20lbs, and after the following 20lbs)
- Receiving comments like, "What do you eat - air?" "Have you stopped eating?" "You looked fine before..." "Are you going to stop losing weight now?"

Besides these few small complaints, life is goooooood.

--I have to sleep with a pillow between my knees so my bones don't poke each other??
--All of my favorite pants that I kept for years saying "someday I'll fit into you again" are now starting to get baggy! Nooo!!

My self esteem got incredibly lower because I know I've lost a lot of weight but I know I'm nowhere near being thin yet.

I keep thinking I'm sitting on something, but it's just my tailbone, which hardly has any padding anymore.

When I was younger, I had a sexy hourglass shape, and it's gone now! I'm very rectangular. I never would have thought my entire shape would change, but my hips are much smaller than they ever have been. I thought they'd be bigger now that I've had kids, but they're not.

I've been catching colds more easily. I've got a mild one now and had another a few months ago. I'm not usually this susceptible to colds.

are you eating enough/getting enough nutrients? It seems like the opposite should happen . Try adding garlic to your meals, a staple food for me . Hope you feel better,

Thanks for the info. I thought I was, plus I've been taking a mulch-vitamin. I may need to revamp my diet.

- pants falling down
- belt doesn't fit
- underwear falling down
- expensive clothing is baggy and looks dumb
- fiance is uncomfortable when laying on my shoulder/arm because its not soft anymore!
- people commenting daily about my height (i guess looking slimmer also makes me look taller, and i'm already 6 feet tall)


and I LOVE ITTTTTT!

(1) I had to buy thermal underwear to wear to stop me shivering at work.
(2) My rings are getting a bit loose

I have just got back from town, I went in to buy some food for the garden birds and came back with £150.00 worth of running kit.
