- Being the fat friend
- Not being able to wear and buy any clothes I want
- jiggly arms and thighs
- boob sweat
- Avoiding trying on clothes because I'm going to feel fat and then get depressed
- being the homegirl and not the girlfriend
Hello, I'm new to this group and was very shy to actually post anything, until I read this.
The tears just streamed down my face reading all the things that desperately apply to my life. But the last statement rings true.
I won't miss being who I am right now (Ashamed of who I am)
Its so great that we all can relate. I believe it will help us all reach our goals. Now we know we're not alone, and there are others who feel like you and I. Welcome.
Ok, someone is going to have to explain this to me because I didn't even discover beige bras until I lost weight. What would I wear under white shirts?? I didn't know it was just a big girl thing.
As Pretty Paula said in the last thread, feeling masculine. I do not miss that the MOST.
I personally love my beige bras and would love them at any size!

4. fat clothes
5. feeling like im carrying a 150lb sack around with me all the time.. makes me tired lol
6. my belly.. i never knew one could get sooo big

-the arm wing/flab that moves when I wave
-the thighs rubbing together thing
-being the only one in jeans when every one else is wearing shorts and tanks
-being terrified to go to an amusement park because of an abnormal fear of getting stuck on a ride
-being the 'fat' friend
-my flab still moving even though I've come to a complete stop
And tell me, why can't I order a salad in peace? They either look at me like I should have ordered it a longgggg time ago, or they put the salad in front of one of my skinny friends and place the philly cheese steak in front of me. Tres annoying...

Nobody deserves to feel like that.
As for what I don't miss?
I don't miss shopping in the plus size sections
I don't miss not being able to keep up with DH
I don't miss making DH look like a tiny person next to me. (We weigh about the same now )
chickinthehat -- we welcome 20-somethings as well as those who have at some point in time been twenty somethings :-)
YOUR WEIGHT LOSS IS AMAZING!!! You're getting so close to your goal!! Eeeeeeeeee I'm excited for you!!
Things I won't miss:
- Feeling like I'm too chubby to be the "pretty girl" on stage.
- Having my butt in customer's faces at work (**though I do work in a restaurant where they cram FAR TOO MANY tables into one spot....everyone has issues...but I always feel like the people are like "this fat girls but is in my haddock"**)
- Feeling less in control of my life, that it controls me (Starting to NOT MISS this already!)
- Being the biggest one in dance classes/having people look at me weirdly when I tell them I dance.
Physical Limitations:
*Getting winded tying my shoes, putting shoes and socks on and pulling up my pants (Achieved!)
*Not being able to have sex because I can't spread my legs (Achieved!)
*Not having my thighs rub together and start irritations Appearances:
*Looking prego (I think I have achieved this)
*The double chin (Almost achieved this)
*The double arm
That's what comes to mind, more to come as they come in my head.
