Things you miss after losing weight

Options
Here's my list:

- Buying new shoes every 3 months because I used to destroy shoes with my weight
- Being warm in winter because of the extra insulation
- The extra padding on my backside when sitting on unpadded chairs and benches

How about everyone else?

    Having MORE money -- not only could I not walk in the malls (was in wheelchair for almost 2 years), but really the only things that would fit me when I did go to the malls were shoes, earrings and perfume (and of course the food court).

    My comfy pajamas...they now swallow me, and I've been wearing my workout clothes as pajamas. :grumble:

    I miss my boobs!

    I have about 20 more pounds to go, and I'm sitting at a low b-cup. I was never a large chested women, the biggest they were was a low C, but I kinda liked having a low C.

    Skipping shaving because my legs were always covered. Even in 100 degree heat. Because I was ashamed of them.

    I don't miss it much...but enjoying things like an enormous Starbucks white mocha with whip, or five cookies at a time, without feeling much guilt or concern.

    (FTR I indulge a lot, do the 'fit your macros' thing...but I sometimes miss that completely blissful, oblivious snacking)

    I miss being warm! I am always cold now, but I wouldn't want that insulation back for anything!!

    Do not fear. There's no such thing as a low C or low B.

    I don't miss anything about the old me.

    And I was always cold when I was fat.

    I can't really say that I miss anything...all I remember is being in chronic pain and being winded and needing a nap after walking the dog around the block for 15 minutes...it was a ****ty existence.

    This exactly. Not caring about what I eat because 'I'm already fat anyway'... it was kinda nice. I don't miss all the other stuff that came with being obese though..

    ummm, nothing

    although, that extra stomach padding came in handy at times

    I enjoyed making mine "talk" by squishing it together. Mildly amusing to say the least.

    Only thing that I miss is the body warmth generated by the fat. Otherwise not one single thing!

    I miss having a notably higher tolerance to alcohol, and I'm always cold now.
