Most disliked part of yourself when trying on clothes

This is spawned from having to try on dresses for the *dun dun dunn* annual Christmas party this Saturday. While the belly is my most overall hated part (oh how I wish spot-training were real!) ...it's easy enough to cover with a long, flowy dress.

The 2nd most hated part is my underarm chub. When you're wearing a dress with thin straps and it creates that chub right between your arm and your chest that people like to call "Baby Fat".

UGH.

So, I bought a dress that is bigger on top, won't pinch, with slightly wider straps and I am getting it tailored to not be so loose on the bottom to avoid the "arm chub".

Anyone have similar frustrations? :P

    Now that my weight is down, dress shirts fit tight in my arms and shoulders but are huge in my waist area and if I get it baggier up top it is ginormous in the waist. I have big legs and no butt, so I have a hard time finding jeans that fit me and look good.

    I've gotten a little of that infamous muffin top going with some of my favorite jeans and skirts. I'd have to say it's my mid-section I loathe the most. Seeing my stomach poking out when it used to be flat is what motivated me to start losing weight

    Boobs, I have too much :( if I could I'd share. Anything strappy/with shaped cups is out, things will fit everywhere else but I'll need to go up a size to get over the chestickle area!

    THIGHS!!!

    It's impossible to show off one's tiny waist while simultaneously disguising your thunder thighs. And don't tell me "flowy pants" - they still cling to blubber!

    I'd much rather have a belly and nice legs... much easier to distract attention from your midsection with a short skirt.

    *grumble grumble*

    Everything- my shirts are tight where I have the baby pooch, my pants will fit in the waist and not the length or fit in the length and not waist!

    My boobs! They are and have always been big. Don't get me wrong. I love having curves and boobs, but it makes it hard to find clothes that fit right. I wouldn't complain if they shrunk a cup size :)

    my booty. most pants are not made for people with junk in their trunk... so pants will fit great on my butt but then the waist is too big... it's frustrating

    My belly - always and forever my belly. I can deal with clothes not buttoning around my chest, I'm more than happy with that. But the GD belly ruins everything.

    a dress can look great everywhere except my belly. It is always sticking out all nasty. I also have a problem with stretching pants. My nasty thighs sticking together, gross!

    My gut. It doesn't matter how much weight I lose, or how many situps I do, it is always there... taunting me...

    Thanks for your replies. Hey, I haven't even had kids and I have the "pooch". Absolute worst. But as for this time of year, like I said... the little armpit chub is the absolute worst when you're trying on formal dress after formal dress and they all make it show like a frickin exploded biscuit can!!!

    LOL, you guys are great. :) Thanks for sharing with me.

    My SO is just that way! There is a site, shirts are expensive but so worth it-- http://www.tallshirts.com/tall-shirts/ They aren't your normal "big and tall," they are "built and tall!" :)

    Anyway, OP, I hate my thighs. :(

    Good thinking about how to fix your own dress problem! I bet the tailor will get you looking fabulous.

    Pretty much everything in the middle of my body is disliked.

    Right there with ya on the belly. I'm a classic apple shape. To get a suit to fit properly, I need the pants in an 18, but a jacket won't button around my belly unless it's a 22. And getting a dress to fit? Forget about it.

    I can't seem to lose my love handles, I am almost down to my Pre pregnancy weight but have these newfound love handles that I never had before baby. Crazy how pregnancy changes the body so much. I look way different weighing 130 than I looked weighing that much Pre-baby. Oh, and I've always hated my arms. Yuck.

    i always look like i'm about two to three months pregnant. it's really annoying and i feel like the more weight i lost the more accentuated my little kangaroo pouch gets!

    a cruel joke.

    I have a bigger waist then hips. Pants don't fit me properly (they always fall down since there's no hips holding them up)... I've tried belts but the same thing happens.
