Lighthearted - what has got worse since you’ve lost weight?

[roshi42]

Obviously it’s mostly hugely beneficial! But inspired by my shower just now - and light hearted - anything worse or more difficult?

For me, I have cut myself the last few times I’ve shaved my knees! It’s so much harder! They are so knobbly now 😂

Yes, to the arm pit shaving issues
Yes, to being cold so much
My engagement and wedding rings are far too big too.

But I wouldn't change it! I can now survive a heatwave, wrap a standard towel around myself, see my collar bones, fit in the bath tub, run 10km+ comfortably, put the crisps down, fit in works conference room chairs, walk around with confidence and wear a jumpsuit.

Its life changing for so many of us. Best of luck to everyone x

Oh this! My bum has disappeared!

I realised when we were at a very fancy hotel for a special occasion. I’d thrown two pairs of heels into my suitcase. Heading to dinner, all done up in my gown, full hair and makeup etc, got two steps and my shoes came off! Back to the room, changed into the other pair and same thing happened.

Ended up carrying my shoes and walking in tights from the room, into the lift, down to reception, discreetly hiding behind my husband so nobody could see my feet, along a lobby, then slipped my shoes on to walk into the restaurant and gripped onto DH to get to our table.

My knees because i am so much more active now!! I need to be careful!

I can’t ice swim anymore. In fact like pps I’m miserably cold below mid-20s Celsius.

All the clothes I try on look nice, which is expensive.

On the plus side, I can layer clothes almost infinitely now so I can wear lots of the silly purchases all at the same time to not freeze.
