    Eating right means eating more fiber. Welcome to constipation a couple days a week! Yes I drink tuns of water....

    Please don't hate me, but I've been losing where I most wanted to.:blushing: I've lost a good portion of that roll between my boobs and tummy, my tummy's going down, and I have far less back fat if I wear a fitted top. :drinker: It is VERY slow going, though. Since the beginning of June, I've lost about 10 pounds and not quite 2% body fat. So I guess, my only beef would be the pace at which I'm losing. However, I can deal with that as long as the numbers don't start going back up again.

    LMAO! Me too!
    Never been cold in my life until this fall. Especially my fingers!
    And, I have also lost my caboose. I need a pad now to do crunches as it hurts to feel my tailbone rubbing on the ground.

    I won't complain though. Still better than looking like the Pilsbury Dough Boy!

    I'm jealous of all the women who say the boobs are the first place they lose. I'd keep my belly for life in exchange for a normal manly chest.

    My boobs have shrunk SO much, and they weren't even big to begin with :sad: They look terrible now.

    That's where I am losing it! By the time I lose everything I want to, I'll be back down to an A cup which is what I was before I gained all I have now! BUT, the good news is, they won't be in the way so much and you can probably go braless more often without offending anyone.. There are advantages to having smaller boobs!!

    Not for me. I didnt realize mine were as big as they are until I started losing and now - dang! :laugh:

    Agree on the insulation and sitting on hard things hurting. Also, hating this extra skin on my tummy. Hopeful it will go away or a tummy tuck is in my future. ow

    Favorite clothes don't fit anymore. (and I don't like clothes shopping:grumble: )
    Cycling clothes are too loose (and those are not cheap:noway: )
    Had to get a new seat for my bike (not cheap either and finding the 'right' seat is a crap shoot)

    Some of the above....

    * Lost padding in many places so my bones now have feelings too !
    * Lost the portable table that I used to sit my plate on at parties ... now I have to use my lap / legs
    * Buying (or wanting / needing to buy) clothes every few WEEKs !!!
    * Feeling like a melted candle

    Glad to be losing 'man boobs' though lol

    .... but I am much happier / healthier than I used to be ... so WORTH IT !
