Recently I've begun noticing some slightly shiny horizontal marks running a little above the waistline of some of my shirts, tops and dresses. I've never had them before and have been puzzled by how they got there.
The first couple I noticed when I was doing my washing and thought maybe I'd leaned on something that had left the marks. When the marks showed up on a couple of other garments I started thinking maybe they'd been marked up in the dryer. I couldn't explain it otherwise.
Today, I finally realised what's causing the marks. I've gained so much weight that my desk now presses very firmly into my upper belly when I sit at it, causing whatever I wear to rub against it all day as I shift and turn in my seat, which is wearing the slightly shiny marks into some of my clothes. 😅
It's bad enough that my thunder thighs wear through all my jeans, now my belly is wearing through my shirts and dresses (slowly)!
So now I'm curious, what other unexpected signs or side effects of weight gain have people experienced?
