Have you found losing weight effects the fat pad area negatively or positively?

    If you are asking about what I'm imagining... When the yard is smaller, the swing set looks bigger.

    Here I thought he was talking about sore feet...

    There really is... up to an inch can be hiding down there apparently...

    My girlfriend has been very pleased with my weight loss and has commented on the effect people are talking about here.

    According to science, 30 lbs lost = 1 inch gain. Not actual size gain but I guess havig a fat pad around the area hides some of the size.

    Don't your feet usually get smaller when you lose weight, too? I always thought feet were the indicator for the size of the swingset? Clearly my official Single Woman's Guide is a lie!

    As you age your feet tend to get longer (the arch drops).

    So there's a happy by-product of aging!

    Actually, I dropped a whole shoe size when losing weight. Same brand, same shoe at first...then I tried other shoes/brands and they fit! It wasn't a fluke. I have a bit more to go so maybe I will lose another half size in the next year! :D

    Fupa is the fat between the stomach and pubic area. It stands for fat upper *vuglarwordIcantsay* area.

    haha glad yawl having a fun time.. I guess it is a funny topic. No, what I was asking was if any guys noticed the fat pad area shrinking down as they lose and / or if they got sagging skin there like a belly apron can develop.. gee I hope not.. and yes, the swing set apparatus is just fine and never had a complaint.. :smiley:

    @nutmegoreo that was the funniest comment I've seen here. GREAT ONE!

    I WISH my feet would have shrunk. I've been a size 10.5 since i was 13 years old. Weight gain and loss has not affected my shoe size at all.

    I have to stop reading, I'm holding back so many giggles at my desk that my face is red.
