The WORST thing about losing this weight is ________
For me it would have to be how emotional this has all been. I am just not in a great place emotionally. I wish they could have done surgery on my brain too. I also feel like I will never feel like I will lose enough weight, even if I get to my goal.
No padding sucks too.

I didn't read ahead to see if anyone else said the same things, but:
My freakin' tailbone HURTS all the time! When I do situps the most, but just sitting, lying on my back, etc. And my KNEE bones when I lay down on my side, I have to shift my legs, its crazy.
Saggy boobs. They weren't before. No one can tell unless I am naked, but still.
Being cold all the time.
Very thin hair.
I went look for extensions/hair piece today so I can wear my hair more than one way. I know it will grow back, but still.

You know, I just can't bring myself to complain. I'll take the cold, the loose skin, the thigh flaps when I'm running downstairs, the pain on hard surfaces, the boobs pointing to my waist, the money flying out the window on clothes... I'll take it!
I can't bring myself to complain one bit about it because I am finally living again!

Only one complaint....no butt padding! I have been sitting on the floor a lot lately
as I've been doing a big painting project and I seem to have bruised my butt
bone on one side...not my ****yx but the bottom of my hip bone I guess. Ooooww!
So I have to sit on the other side of my butt and it's getting sore too. Guess I'll
have to get a pillow for a while. Still, I'll take it.

I was a warm person to before surgery, during the first 6 months of loosing i was always cold ,I was told if your cold your loosing weight. Not sure if it's true,I hate being cold, and they also say you tend to get colder the older you get, so just call me old and cold!! LOL! biggest complaint is also clothes, even now 8 months out which I think I've leveled off, 80 lbs down, weight is stable but clothes feels loose must be inches I'm loosing. other thing is that I've learn is that I have bones in my but and need a soft chair to sit in, SW-220 CW-140
