What do you hate about being overweight?

Feeling like my life is on hold. I'll do xxxx when I lose weight

Lugging the weight around, so exhausting!

Feeling like people are judging you

Man, hoping my approval comes through soon. So ready to start this journey!

I don't hate "everything" about being overweight... I'm gonna miss my children being able to lay on me comfortably because I feel like a pillow. When I lay on my side my stomach hang over and sometimes when we're watching T.V. they will prop themselves aginst it like its a big pillow lol. My children are the only people who I don't feel self conscious, ugly and horrible when they touch me. When I loose all the weight their pillow will be gone, but I'm sure no one will mind, lol

This is exactly what I've been thinking about. I've got a 4 and 6 year old and they love my warm pillow belly.

Going to miss that part for sure..

I just thought of my other hates. I hate that when I am on vacation, I'm over the weight limit for things like "parasailing" or when cruising I can't sign up for certain shore excursions because again I'm over the weight limit.
