You know what I'm NOT going to miss?!

Being so freaking hot and sweaty all the damn time! Shesh!!! I know its because of my weight because its gotten worse as I've gotten heavier.

I am so so SICK of sweating all the time and being hot in almost any situation!!

Thats what I'm *not* going to miss about being fat...

Amen to that. I use to hate the heat but since I've lost 98lbs I'm cold all the time. I love the sun now. We boat alot it use to kill me now I stay on the bow of the boat instead of being under the canopy still sweating. I'd rather slip a sweater on any time then sweat. They say women don't sweat we glisten that's bull fat women sweat I know this for a fact and hope I never know it again.

Lol, its nice not to be hot all the time and to really enjoy summer.

But its only Autumn still here 15 degrees celcius today which is probably quite tolerable weather for many of you northern hemisphere dwellers. But I'm freaking freezing and I cant turn the heat up in my classroom because it makes the kids feral. They're all in their summer uniforms - tshirts and shorts and hardly any of them have jumpers on!

I havent taken my coat off yet and its 1.40pm - they're just eating lunch now before they go out which is why I've done a sneaky LBT check!

Plus I am going to save a ton of money on A/C this year. Before I lost my weight I would have it turned down to 72 and now I keep it on 75 if my family is here or 77 if I am home alone.

I use to be the one in the office sweating. Now I sit here with a electric heater at my desk and im freezing. and everyone else is complaining how hot it is. Ive lost 70 lbs. so far. so it will come for you to.:biggrin:

you are so right.i use to (SWEAT)all the time.i hated it.

out of breath,

wheezing

did we mention(SWEATING)

i had to take a towel every where i went.i am so glad i had weightloss surgery.

I was the same now I am always freezing and its almost June here still raining and snowing. I am so ready for summer and WARM!

On a thread I frequent, I posted a NSV ALERT!!! on Monday. We had 95.5 degrees and 79% humidity on Monday. I worked out in the sun for 3hrs or more in my gardens and did not even break a sweat. I used to have to work in 15 minute intervals and I would be soaking wet when I came into the house to cool off. So many good things come with losing weight.

Amen sister. You know what else I won't miss!? Chaffing!! Those horrible strawberries you get between your legs at the top from walking to far. Never again!

I'm not going to miss huffing and puffing up my steps. Now I can walk up and down them without getting winded. I am also not going to miss the pain that is associated with Fibromyalgia. Fibro and fat don't mix either. I have already noticed a difference in my pain levels. I'm not going to miss having to shop at "women's" stores. It is so nice to be able to buy a piece of clothing at Target. I am also not going to miss struggling to shave my legs. I do not have a very woman friendly shower and I used to just die trying to shave my legs. Now it's easy. I'm not going to miss the feeling of shame after a binge. I know there's more. I could go on and on...so happy...me and my band..:(

I'm not going to miss my big ugly ol' size 24 clothes!

(or my big ol' size 24 A$$!)

I am always cold now!! Funny what weight loss will do to you :(

I'm so glad to see I am not the only one. I was also always the hot one and now I too keep a heater under my desk. I also wear those gloves with the finger tips cut off while I am working and I am still freezing. I am seriously going to have to buy some really, really warm clothes next winter!

So glad you posted this thread. I'm still 253 lbs, down from 336 lbs... and I feel like I'm cold most of the time. My kids and family think I'm crazy! It was 69 degrees out yesterday and here I was, cranking up the heater in the car! Guess I just don't have as much insulation as I used to? LOL

I can definitely relate! I marvel at how nice it is to sit outside in comfort and not be the one begging NOT to sit on the patio.

I am also freezing. Heater is on , jumper is on but it doesn't seem to make a difference. Being cold affects your marriage - my husband won't let me near him because my feet and hands are always so cold.LOL. Sometimes even my bum is cold and I promise I am not running around the house naked!
