Same here. I think for a long time that was one of my reason for don't wanting to lose so bad. But I just let myself get to the breaking point. And now I want go slow and steady. Work my way down.0

Great question and I agree with the skin answer too. I also feared, when I was in the business world, of losing my visibility and presence at the conference room table. If I shrunk, would people see me? Honestly, that's what I thought for many years subconsciously. Once I brought that fear to the surface and realized what it was, I could banish it but golly. When one is playing with "the big boys" literally, one might feel the need to be big too!! LOL

i fear becoming visable again. just seen.. for the past few years after i packed on all this extra weight, it was easy and almost a *relief* to not be seen, even though i hated it that i felt invisable.
i fear the vulnerability.
i fear being any sort of inspiration or role model.
i fear all the emotions and feelings that i covered up with lard coming to surfice, but thats what it's all about.0 -
Have no fear. If you take your time, tone up...you won't be saggy.
My fear is I won't have enough money to buy a new wardrobe. :P0 -
I'm afraid that I will lose the weight. Everyone will say how great i look. Then I will just gain it all back....again.0

I really want to lose weight to "look how I feel" - If I try to lose weight, but I can't/don't does that make me an ugly person?0

Like a lot, it's the saggy skin and having lost too much muscle and being skinny fat. But most of all I am scared of losing all this weight and still not feeling like I am beautiful or that it is enough. It's a 100% mental concern. I need to work more on being confident with who I am more so than my body.0

Wow! Your reply sounds just like my own thoughts. Thank you for sharing that because it shows me that I'm truly NOT alone. Good luck and keep going.0

I have zero fear, and if anybody here does, do whatever you need to do to conquer that fear.
You should associate nothing negative to your weight loss.0
