NSV tummy touching

Options
Let start this by saying, I hate having my stomach touched. Hate it. However, even worse then the feeling of having my stomach touched is the look on my fiance's face when I swat his hand away from my midsection. Although I haven't lost much weight yet, yesterday, while sleeping in on a Saturday morning, my fiancé snuggled up to me and put his hand around my waist. Aaaaaand.... for the first time in our seven years together, I didn't feel that sudden rush of panic I usually get when my tummy gets attention! Sure, I still have such a long way to go and soooo many body image issues to overcome, but it is amazing what one good snuggle will do to a girl's motivation! :)

    Lol Awesome!! Congrats -- that's HUGE!! I'm the same way, I cringe having my stomach touched. Seeing the fat is one thing, feeling it is entirely too much to handle! lol

    I hope one day I can feel like that about my upper thighs. When my husband touches them I get so annoyed and actually flinch and pull away from him because I have stretch marks and some cellulite and I feel disgusting when he sees/touches them. Even though I have known him since we were 13-14, now were in our 20's I'm convinced he just hasn't noticed yet how gross my thighs actually are so I want to hide them from him so he won't be less attracted to me. Congrats on getting healthier and boosting your confidence!

    Hahaha ya , I hate when my hubby touches my tummy under my shirt when he tries to cuddle in bed.. As soon as I know its gonna happen Ill try to suck it in as much as I can and if I cant stop him in time ill pull it out and put it over my shirt or over the covers and tell him to "stop playing with my fat"
