    Like: The obvious things, like smaller clothes, not feeling uncomfortable wearing shorts, more self confidence, wearing a pair of skinny jeans!

    Dislike: My C-cup turning into a possible A, I have been refusing to get them measured, and will not buy below a B until I do so!!! My hips are freakishly noticible, Ive always had big hip bones, but you can really "hold on" to them. My belly pudge... Im convinced Ill never get a FLAT stomach, stretch marks on my sides...My non existant butt! Even when I was over 30lbs heavier I had a perfect hourglass, a bit more squuish in the middle, of course, but I had the hips/butt and well breast like WOAH!

    Ha! Such a typical girl responce...

    Likes:

    how much stronger and 'lighter' I feel
    getting some confidence back (still have to work on it)
    Having more control over my emotions
    Feeling happier with each passing day

    Dislikes:

    Looking at my body and knowing that even if I reach my goal weight, I will be left with loose skin, no boobs and probably a lot of other things I won't be happy with- knowing I will never have a good looking body
    Being impatient about how slowly I am losing weight
    Wishing I hadn't ever let myself get to such a high weight

    that must be common because after I had my son and I was like 160.. I had an hourglass shape all the way through to 140 !!!!
    now since ive been 135, and now down to 123 my stretch marks are more noticeable and I have love handles where it was smooth an curvy before :sad:
    plus my thighs looks like they are refusing to lose ANYTHING and are huge compared to my waist... :grumble:

    on the flip side, if I would excercize it would probably help:laugh: :laugh:
    but Im more of a once daily bike ride and adjusting portion/calories kinda girl. :flowerforyou:
