-Having a big butt!
-Not wanting to look in the mirror
-Not having a defined jawline
-Double chin
-Having to manipulate the angle of the camera to take good selfies
-"Thunder thighs"
-Having to ask a sales clerk if they have bigger sizes in the back
-Being told my size is only available online
-Feeling less than because I weigh more
-Feeling like my weight defines me0 -
All of these "I won't miss". It is sad that we did this to ourselves. For me, I won't miss the uncomfortable plane rides, the contorting to wipe my @ss, the crotch stink, the out of breath when taking a shower0

sucking in my stomach!!!0

I won't miss people asking me if I'm pregnant.0

I won't miss the feeling like I'm living half a life0

I won't miss the thinly veiled superiority others generate towards me, as if being fat equates.to a low IQ. The "glazed" ignore look people get when they see me.0

I won't miss not living life, hiding and not wanting to attend functions or get-togethers. Not having a significant other because I won't put myself out there. I won't miss the specialty stores where I buy my clothes and although I am the size of 2 people; I wont miss feeling like half of one. I won't miss the negative self talk I have inflicted on myself and hating my own reflection. I won't miss the way I feel trapped in this completely out of shape body, how exercise in any form, even walking is exhausting and painful. I won't miss the looks of disgust on the faces of people around me. I won't miss feeling so much anger and shame.0

I won't miss:
- spending $100 a month on medicine and taking a fistful of pills daily
- being worried about fitting in seats (airplanes, amusement parks, movies)
- being too self concious to get out and meet new people
- being in pain anytime I'm awake
- overhearing snide remarks and seeing the looks
- having to pay extra to buy clothes that fit in the big and tall stores
- needing several breaks just to do simple household chores
- sweating after a short walk and wondering if I look/smell as nasty as it makes me feel

Joint pain, for sure... That and not being able to lay on my back because of breathing issues. I don't have sleep apnea (sp?) yet, but I'm borderline...0

Shopping online for clothes.
Being uncomfortable on plane rides.
The low self esteem.

I won't miss deep breathing when walking or even going up the stairs, I won't miss seeing myself hurt everyday because of the number on the scale, I won't miss crying every night over what I regret eating, I won't miss this stomach0

I wont miss feeling so self conscious that i cant leave the house or make any friends. Because i know all they think she is a fat girl who wears ugly clothes.
I wont miss feeling jealous of all the girls who i see on a night out enjoying themselves, when i know i can never have that cause i am to fat.
and i wont miss knowing no guy will ever like me cause i am fat, which also makes me self conscious, and quiet and never join in.0 -
Almost all of the previously mentioned!!0

I won't miss:
-living in black leggings, smock tops/dresses & big cardigans
-being asked when my baby is due (my kids are aged 5 and 7!!!)
-belly overhang
-back/armpit fat over my bra straps
-chub rub on the upper thighs/arms
-thin people saying 'Just eat less and move more'...gggrrrrr!
-my mother's backhanded compliments (eg, you have lovely skin - mind you, you don't get wrinkles in a balloon' or 'you have a nice shape from behind....there just needs to be less of you', etc)
-being heavier than my 5'11" husband (I'm 5'5")
-the bitchy yummy mummies looking me up and down with obvious disgust when I drop off/collect my kids at school
-having to strategically place my kids in front of me to hide my belly in photos
-people saying 'well done you' in a really patronising way when I'm in my running gear
-red marks on my skin from where waistbands have dug in
-lack of visible facial bone structure
-the look I see in people's eyes when they see my handsome, slim & slightly younger (by 3 years) husband with me
-being the funny fat girl who puts herself down to make others laugh0 -
I can relate to almost all of these!! I find it horrid that we all feel this way! Lets just keep this list going to remind ourselves of why we need to keep working at it! Someone said " Nothing tastes as good as slim feels" That is my motto now but of course I can think of a lot of things that taste pretty damn good, but I am not slim yet so I will just have to try and find out!0

Love this thread. I have to say things I miss from being fit.. Being told I'm gorgeous, beautiful, sexy. No one looks at me anymore. No one compliments me. I miss my energy.
What I won't miss: my pants cutting into my stomach, being disappointed every time I try something on, dreading summer because my legs are too fat for shorts or a swimsuit, not being taken out to dinner by my SO since he wants me to lose weight. I didn't even get birthday cake on my birthday because 'she needs to lose weight' I won't miss my belly fat or how aware I am of it. I won't miss taking 30 minutes to decide which shirt will hide my fat the best. I won't miss stressing about my High school reunion next year, I was a model in high school so I feel a lot of pressure to be fit again.0 -
I definitely won't miss my Muffin Top and back fat.... You know that wonderful bra roll you just can't hide . My dream is never having to get my exercise by dancing around, jumping up and down and squeezing into those dang shaper/hold it in and fool no one torture devices! Because of course the fat just oozes out somewhere else LOL0

I won't miss the disappointment I feel for letting myself go after taking the weight off and the negative body image that goes w it.0
