Yes! That is exactly how I feel. When I loose the belly fat, I'll wear fitted tops, which sometimes get men looking, and the attention makes me so uncomfortable. Even if loosing weight, I prefer the baggier clothes.

Unfortunately, two things happen when you carry it in your boobs... it's the first place to GO, and it's also such FUN to watch it all travel south.

No, but I miss my boobs. LOL the only thing I liked on my big girl body was my 38C's but my girls were the first things to go. Why couldn't my thighs be the first things to go. I'm like a 38B now I hope the don't get any smaller

I can still recall with utmost clarity the day when i was walking...I didn't have a goal in mind back then, but all of a sudden I looked at myself and realized, "I'm tiny!" Of course I'm no longer tiny but some things that DID bother me about being in shape was the extra uninvited attention from men, the way that SOME women seemed to instantly dislike me, and the assumption that attractive women can not also be intelligent.
Which is NOT to say that I don't look eagerly forward to being in shape again! Eventually!

It's too bad that something that feels so nice to the touch looks so awful and is so bad for you.
I'll admit it. I like bellies. I always have a good look at a guy with a paunch...there IS something comforting about it...a humility...I dunno......
I am dreading getting a flap of skin that replaces my tummy...I wonder if cocoa butter and tight undies will help!!LOL!

My teenage nephew is obsessed with my fat. He is always poking it and grabbing my tummy and saying things like, "Wow. I can really clutch it." Every time he sits near me he has to lean against my fatness. I think it is comforting to him. I am his pillow.It doesn't disgust him like the rest of my family.He is also so supportive of my diet that he's offered to go on it as well...even though he's thin and 6' tall.LOL! He just wants to be a support for me. Even though he is a child, his total acceptance means a lot to me!!

Will I miss my belly? Probably in some ways...but I don't have designs on being so thin that it disappears completely...I'd like to keep a bit of a pooch.
Then again...if I reach my goal, my mindset at that new weight might be different! We'll see!
