Things I won't miss

As I was looking at my swollen feet last night and sweet talking my husband into massaging them, I started thinking this is one of the things I won't miss after losing weight. What are yours?

1). The swollen feet and ankles of course

2) the red mark around my waist from wearing elastic top pants

3) under boob sweat

4) the dents I get in my thighs from sitting in a too small chair with arms

3. no more tight girdles....i'll be happy to downgrade to spanx. lol..

Having to plan all of my travel arrangements so that I can TRY to go during a time when I have a chace of having an empty seat next to me.. and then being worried that I'll be told I need a second seat... and once I get on the plain being worried I'll have to ask for a belt extender.

Not being able to sit in those white plastic lawn/party chairs.

Never finding good stuff at thrift stores.

Finally finding cute shoes that look good on me and then totally trashing them in a matter of weeks because they can't handle my weight.

Lack of sex drive

Fatigue

Not being able to do the things I want physically
