I'm curious ... what will you miss most about being FAT????? I mean, sometimes is does have it's advantages, doesn't it? :confused2:
I think I'm going to miss the natural shelf I have where I can set my plate when I'm eating in my Lazyboy (since I have small breasts and big belly it works out pretty nice). I suppose when my belly gets smaller I'll just have to find my lap somewhere.
I'll also miss those nice folds of flab that make convenient hand warming places. 
What will you miss most?

Nothing! I will even be happy about only being an A. I'd rather be thin and have no chest than to be how I am now.

What will I miss??? I will miss having a smooth wrinkle free face. I am turning 40 this year and I look much younger (The photo on my profile is a current one) and I think it is due to having a chubby face...the fat fills the wrinkles. I know when I start losing weight I will quickly have wrinkles come out of no where!
Thank goodness I am a full believer that we should grow older gracefully, I just do not want to look old so I am swear by plastic surgery  | |

There's a couple of things I miss.
I miss the fat on my knees. I cant lie on my side in bed anymore, becuase my knees resting on top of one another hurts. Just out of interest, there's been photos galore of Victoria Beckham here, with a weird dent in her inside thigh just above the knee in several of those Which Celebs have had Plastic Surgery articles in the tabloids. Apparently that's a dead giveaway for thigh liposuction. If so, how come I have it too? I've never been lipo-sucked.
I miss the fat on my chest too. Its absolutely GROSS when I like on my back in bed. Its all ribs, and a huge dent at the solar plexus and you can see my heart beating. It's completely gross. Of course that's because my boobs are lying under my arms when I lie that way.
I want some more fat on my hip bones too. Everytime I go to the physio and get my lower back worked on, it kills because my hip bones arent cushioned and I'm black and blue the next day.
And my face. I hear you Dawn. I really do look 40 now. A good 40 since I've always taken care of my skin in the sun, not abused in in tanning beds and looked after it. But I didnt look 38 2 years ago. Losing the fat on your face is a bit of a shame.

NO clue but I can not wait to find out..
By the way JACQUI, I sleep with a pillow between my knees...have since childhood...I must have had knobby knees then! I also use a pillow between my feet...can't stand them touching!
Truth be told, I have a pillow by my stomach sorta under the girls (boobs) and them one on the small of my back....and under my head and....OK so I am a pillow freak! Good thing my DH doesn't mind cause I am NOT a snuggler! Except my poodle thinks I am! LOL

Jacqui, you don't look a day over 35 and even then you could pass for younger.

My knees hurt when I lay on my side too, but I'd rather have thin than comfy knees. ;o)

There are times I miss the simplicity of shopping for clothing. There were two stores, with only a few styles I would wear and in fewer colors I'd put on. So it was easy. (BUT not FUN).
Now I'm forever trying things on and I can't decide X or Y or Z or A...it gets a little frutstrating. But it can be fun trying if I'm not in a hurry.

| Oh, I can TOTALLY relate to that one! I would love my boobs to stay where they belong. They behaved much better before I lost weight.

Not mine. They are already long and droopy. Losing weight will just make them flatter but they'll still be long and droopy.
