Whats on your HCG kick-that-bucket-to-the-curb list?

**Leez** · June 24th, 2016, 09:14 AM

I got the idea for this topic from an old off-topic post here: Maximum weight loss versus maximum days allowed on P2 question

So I thought it would be fun to continue with ladibugs bucket list idea and make a topic for our loaders, many of whom are at the beginning of their journey to their goal weight. I think we all have our own list of the things in our fat/overweight/obese experience that we will be happy to say goodbye too.

So lets make a list of the things we will NOT miss once we aren't fat anymore. You can also include things you are really looking forward to when your thin self finally appears again. Here's ladibug's and pinklynn's to get us started:

I will be so glad to get rid of and/or I will be so happy when:

Also, sometimes I get the feeling of claustrophobia. Maybe that is due to my weight and size. I could go on and on...:-) One more thing not liking my picture to be made because I don't like the way I look. I feel bad that I don't have more pics of me with my kids.

Here's some of mine: I do NOT miss that swooshing ripping sound that your corduroy jeans make when you walk and your thighs rub together. In fact, I'm now totally enjoying my thigh gap. (Yes, it can happen! ) And this still makes me mad: I hated that for much of my obese life, the only colors of pants you could buy in the bigger plus sizes were pink and neon green and they were always made of stiff, stinky polyester. And why do manufacturers think that huge women want to wear enormous prints?

What a great topic!

I will not miss adjusting my clothes every time I stand up to make sure the waistband of my stretchy pants is pulled up over my little potbelly and my shirt is pulled down to hide the muffin-top!!!

I guess I have never really been overly huge, there isn't any particular physical thing I won't miss.

The kick it to the curb thing I am looking forward to is poor eating I do to sabotage myself. I usually get home from work at 2300 and end up eating some junk before bed, whether I am hungry or not.

I am looking forward to kicking this dislike with myself to the curb for doing those things. For about 10 months I was in the gym 5-7 days a week, and it was never because I wanted to look better it was because it made me feel better, I did it because I was taking care of myself not because I saw it as a punishment for being overweight. I want that back. Right now I look in the mirror and my thoughts are only negative. I am really looking forward to that ending.

Try taking post it notes and writing positive things on them like I love how I look etc. Stick them all over the sides of your mirror. Every time you look in the mirror read every one of them while looking at yourself. You will begin to see and your actions will change because of that. Good luck!

I will not miss all of my pants wearing out between my thighs...because they constantly rub together. Or getting chub rub when wearing a dress or shorts. I will also be happy to finally be okay with being in pictures ( I try to avoid them like the plague).

I will not miss my knee hurting from the extra pounds or not being able to bend over or get up off the floor gracefully. I definitely will not miss my double chin or upper gut that makes me look pregnant. Last but not least is that I will not miss having to buy plus sized clothes. I hate the way they are cut and the selection is not even a quarter of what's available in regular sizes.

While I was never larger than a size 14/16 or XL , at 217 lbs. my breasts were 40DDD and I had lots of "back fat" and a lower tummy pouch. My body was so out of proportion, that I could not buy dresses which would fit at the top because they would be too big at the bottom. I was so excited that after losing over 70 lbs. on hcg and having a breast reduction (down to 36C)/tummy tuck to remove my pouch. When I could wear dresses again, I know that bought at least 100 of them in size 2-4 or Small, and STILL ROCKING THEM 2 YEARS LATER.

I will not miss having to buy 2-piece suits or skirt sets in two different sizes.

I love being able to wear cute short dresses again too.

I dressed like an Amish bag lady for a lot of my life. I don't miss that look at all.

I know this thread is a little stale, but I will not miss the weird contortions of posing I do to make sure I look good in pictures. I'm just going to smile and bam. Take the picture.

I totally agree, Lemon! I will not miss NOT wanting to be in pictures.

**Natalie** · February 7th, 2017, 10:46 AM

I will not miss the muffin top and the double chin! And also I want to willfully be in pictures again without trying to hide. I look forward to wearing shorts and tshirts this summer because my legs and arms will be slimmer!

**troye** · February 7th, 2017, 12:03 PM

I will not miss
Looking / feeling like a whale - not recognizing myself in the mirror
Having to buy new clothes on a weekly basis
Chub Rub
Not being able to bend over easily when adjusting my bindings when snowboarding!
..and so many more
