What nobody tells you about losing weight

Putting on a pair of what were "Comfortable" flats for Christmas shopping. Didn't realize you could lose weight like that in your feet! By the end of shopping I could no longer walk as my once comfortable shoes now gave me blisters, ouchie!7

I now understand why previous posters were so excited about the appearance of collarbones, i can just see mine reappearing and i cant stop touching it.25

Ditto on the damn feet thing. Never knew my feet were fat but my slip on dress shoes don't fit right anymore.
And I swear I'm down a cup size in the chest area. Of course I'm a guy so this is a good thing.53 -

That there is such a thing as diet fatigue/MFP obsession (logging) and not having any idea what to do about it.
Grateful for my weight loss and feeling healthier but this is the biggest bump in the road I've come across since I started!20 -
Finally not worried about the weight limits of my ladders.22

What kinda husband wants his wife to wear MORE clothes. -shakes my head-

I know, right! I started feeling mine weeks ago and haven't been able to keep my hands off them, and now I can finally SEE them in the mirror as well.
I never knew it would feel so great! 11 -

That some people will deliberately try and sabotage you, even if their intentions are good ("Go on, you've been so good. You DESERVE that cake")
That sometimes you have to admit defeat...some clothes will never suit me regardless of my weight
That someone telling you they want to lose weight after seeing your success can leave you an emotional wreck (in a good way)
That people will comment on weight loss, but rarely on weight gain.20 -

Pisses me off when people hear "no thank you i don't want it" And keep pushing. Like im not depriving myself i seriously DONT WANT the cake i eat plenty of crap i just eat the crap i actually want...People always act like i have an eating disorder or something because i dont want to eat all their crappy food when they know im losing weight? like how do they think weight loss works..?

Seeing a picture from a year ago pop up on face book and knowing I don't look like that now. (50 lb difference)
Wednesday I found a top that fit me at a thrift shop. Unfortunately it didn't have a tag on it and they are not allowed to sell it without a tag but they would send it back and price it to have it out the next day. So yesterday we went back to check to see if it was back out and while we were there they brought out the rack of new items and I found a winter coat in brand new condition that fit me for a great price and got the shirt too. Just in time too as the unusually warm fall we have had here in Iowa is about to change.
Not losing any weight for most of November and not letting it throw me off completely and starting in the right direction again this week. And knowing that while December will be challenging I can do this.18 -

Yep! If I'm going to spend a large amount of calories on something it's going to be on something I REALLY want. Not something that makes someone else feel better because I accepted their treat. Nope.21 -

My downfall has been reese peanutbutter bars XD Their about 600 calorie each and i work my booty off all month (1200 a day doesnt leave a whole lot of room for 600 calories of chocolate ) just to have one without feeling bad hah. Dont need their stupid cake to take away my reese calories! 18 -
