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...

TOTALLY agree. I absolutely abhor the heat and my body is much better regulated, these days. I also like the fact that I feel comfortable wearing shorts, now, when those days get warm! Somebody mentioned the chafing between the thighs - anybody else have to keep buying new pants cause they'd keep getting holes worn in that spot where the thighs rub? SO embarrassing. I am so glad those days are behind me.

I was never one who sweated all the time, but I sure wasn't the one complaining about being cold all the time. It was always a joke that if I said I was cold, HELL had indeed frozen over! I did, however, notice that as I got fatter (and older) I couldn't tolerate extremely hot or bitterly cold temperatures. Now that I've lost 80+ pounds, the heat doesn't bother me nearly as much. Nor do I get winded after only 10-15 minutes of chores.

Other things that I'm not going to miss...

1) swollen fingers/ankles/feet

2) a FAT face

3) doing the 7 basic ballet movements to shave my legs

4) not being able to "complete my paperwork" in the bathroom

5) feeling guilty about every bite I put in my mouth

6) having poor balance

7) always having to pick out the largest size and hoping it fits

8) my 2nd ( and 3rd) chin

9) having "swamp a$$"

10) huffing/puffing just to bend over to pick up something off the floor

OMG....light bulb moment!!! I thought the main reason for being hot all the time was that I was peri-menopausal!! I knew some from weight but......wow.....

I mowed my lawn today without dripping in sweat and stopping for a break every couple minutes!! No heavy breathing and I soooo enjoyed it!! Never thought I'd say I enjoy house/yardwork!! *does a losing lbs and gaining health happy dance*:smilielol5::thumbup:

I was always freezing for awhile after my surgery (I had lost 18 pounds on the preop diet) and I couldn't believe it. I had to almost close the air vent near me to tolerate the air being on. It's gotten ok recently but after I lose more weight it looks like I'll have to bundle up like a bear from the sounds of it. :smilielol5:

I wanted to ask, did anyone here have some minor back pain that disappeared when they lost weight? I have some and I hope that it goes away along with the always being warm.:thumbup:

Holes on my thighs was so me!!! I used to buy new pants everytime I went into a store because I new I would need them. I still catch myself doing this from time to time.

Can't wait to be there! I love reading these posts, it gives me motivation and a light at the end of the tunnel. Love yall!
