    Not being able to buy from 'normal' stores or being at the top end of the size range available and still nothing fits. I won't miss having to wear bike type shorts under my dresses to prevent thighs chafing. I won't miss not being able to see my toes without leaning over to see past my belly!

    Feeling like I have a pretty face but an ugly body that I am ashamed of

    I have GIANT calves (and always will, apparently) and have had some luck with boots with widewidths.com. (The wide widths refers to the calf size, not a foot width.)

    From a man's perspective. I won't miss being told I am not overweight by everyone when I know that I am, having constant lectures about health issues from my parents, always getting on one side of a picture because one side of my face looks slimmer, always covering up my gut with a pillow when I sit down, and being the one guy who leaves his shirt on while we are ridding on a boat. Oh and what I really won't miss is not dancing with friends because I don't want to be the sweaty fat guy. I am going to be the sweaty guy and I am fine with that, but I want people to know its because I sweat not because I am overweight.

    I will not miss worrying about whether or not my husband is bothered by my weight. He says he's not, but he doesn't know how much I weigh!

    I won't miss going out somewhere thinking I look pretty good - only later to see photos of the event and feel like I looked awful.

    This is a great thread-- So many things we all share. I won't miss:
    - Chub Rub
    - Layering shirts to make sure everything is covered and not too much back fat is visible
    - being the fat "funny" friend

    Hearing "you look so different in your pictures", and feeling invisible when around the opposite sex.

    This may be vain, but I won't miss being the largest person among a bunch of thin, fit, women in my social circle .
