Most embarrassing fat moment?

I also can relate with the airline seats and a chair collapsing.  There are many times I don't want to sit down in fear the chair will break.  But I have 2 moments that stay with me today.  I have 1 posted in my blog, but my step mom asked from a photo of mine from SeaWorld (with me standing next to a Walrus),.. She had the nerve to ask me, which one was the walrus.    The next one is when my brother graduated from the Police academy and we went out to celebrate.  I did not order dessert, but my brother with a heart of gold... said... for me to take a bite of his dessert.  I did take a bite.. and as I did.... My father-in-law (practically yelling) "Mashelle" should you be having that?  I wanted to die.... I only had a bite.  The wierd thing is.... I don't understand how family can be so cruel.  Get this.... Now... they don't know why I am going for the surgery... HMMM...  So.. those type of situations stay...

Wow good topic.  I have a couple, but like above I try to know what situations to avoid, so I missed out on alot.  I will say for my size I am an active person and am on the go all the time.  Yhe thing I hate the most is when I'm walking in front of my family and see the people all start to laugh and giggle as I walk by.  I hate that my family has to go through with that.  My DH and DS always want to take em out.....LoL I love those guys. I also had a funny one when I was in my 20's........I have always been a big girl, but only on the bottom.  I can wear an AL/AXL shirt, but a 5X pantgo figure, this baby got "back" to spare.  At the time I had a new corvette and from the sitted position, I was fine...LoL  There was this group of sailors that would jog around where I worked and when I would drive by they would hoot and hollar all the time.  Well one particular day, they got brave and slapped the car as I was driving by.  I was so mad that they might have scrathed it, I figured, "yeahhh, I'm going show yall what yall hooting at" I got out the car with my big azz hips and the look on their faces was pricelessNeedless to say I was never bothered again.  it made me sad that my size played a part in them ignoring me all of a sudden, because you know had I been normal sized no telling what they would have done.   I am just tired of the "pretty face", I can't wait to hear about the pretty girl. Have a good weekend yall! Kim

Mine was being asked by a business associate, "So when is your baby due?" I said, "I'm not pregnant" and that killed the conversation for a while. Jean

Awesome topic!  Well, I haven't had to ask for the seat belt extender, but I did have it on the last little bit of fabric with a tiny woman next to me and I swear my armpit was right in her face.  Thats how much I poured out of the seat.  One time, My ass got caught in one of those outdoor plastic chairs when I went to get up.  It was at a party, so of course everyone saw me pry it off my backside.   Lets see, oooh, the first one ever was  at a fair with my boyfriend (husband now) and we both tried to sit in the same seat for a ride.  The guy told us one of us would have to get out.  That wasn't fun.  The squished fat on rides, the wanting to ride with the dolphins at sea world but being afraid you would either hurt them, or everyone would stare at the fat chick.  Oh, and the time my dad wanted me to go horseback riding (I haven't been in years and years) and I checked the weight limit and of course I was entirely too fat.  I wouldn't do that to a horse anyway!!  Hey, at least I'm going down now and not up!!!

I'm sure that all of these embarrassing moments happen to people everyday in America, since we are the obese nation.  I went to go on a roller coaster with my son and they could not push and lock the bar down in my lap.  I had to climb out of the coaster in front of everyone, leave my son seated in it and do the walk of shame.  That was three years ago.  Maybe this summer we will attempt that again, since I am thinner.

One month before surgey my place of work called a meeting in the "Little Theater,"  they were doing a power point and presentation.  I was the only one who didn't fit in the seat and just sat there for about 10 min. hanging on as if I was sitting.  I couldn't do it any longer and just plopped to the floor.  I am a middle school teacher and realize that something great came from that incident.  No one said anything, not a word, however there are a couple of students as but as I.  The next time we went into the theater a couple of weeks later with students there were an additional 20 or more folding chairs that had been added to one side of the isle.  I felt like I took it for the big kids and that was okay and great by me.  :  )  Gina

i'VE had the seat belt issue (I didn't know about te extender I thought they were going to put me off te plane because i couldn't fasten my seatbelt) I've also ridden on rides that I couldn't get out of....i remember getting on teh superman ride and pulling crap out of my pocket to finally te man said "maam you can't fit" so my husband rode and i did the "walk of shame". last year I rode on a jet ski wit my husband and fell off....I couldn't ull myself back up! It wasn't just the weight but also being out of shape....Also my husband is shorter and smaller than me so I see people looking at us....the worst is how folks who haven't seen me in years talk about my weight because I was so small wen I was younger . I don't know why family feel like they have the right to comment.

Fortunately when me and my husband went to Magic Mountain it was him on the walk a shame. I guess I'm a chicken I am heavier than then and we haven't been back since. My daughter is asking me to take her to Disney land  now I'm trying to stall until after WLS so I won't have anymore of those UNWANTED moments as memories.

I didnt have to go far for those moments.. 1. going to a sit down pizza hut with my husband, beeing seated in a booth, the tables are screwed into the floor, and my boobs were SITTING ON TOP OF THE TABLE!  I couldnt wait to get out of there! 2.  "meet-the-teachers-night' at my daughters middle school.  and having to sit in those chair connected to the desk kind of things, and I hardly could fit into it, weighing in at 261 pounds at the time, and had to squeeze in there sideways, boobs again sitting on top of the table!!  3.  beeing 'on top' the one and only time while MO, and hearing my husband moan  "Oh god, my legs are numb'   that was horrible!  I wanted to disappear into a whole in the floor!!  and never come out! 4. beeing at a funeral, and have my husbands aunt ask HIM very loud, if we are expecting!! I actually cornered her in the bathroom and asked her if I look THAT FAT that she needed to ask him that??! 5.  going to the OBGYN and a lady in the elevater asked me when I am due?  and I told her I am not!  # 4 and # 5 happened in one week, and I was only about 220 pounds then!!!!  I guess I could go on and on, but I am getting to upset over this, and I dont want all those negativ feelings taking over again!  so, I stop now... HUGS to ALL OF US!!!!!!  Karin

Probably the most "I can't believe this is happening" event....I wasn't so much embarrassed but my roommate was...I was more pissed off and wanted to smack the guy then call his job and get him fired. We were eating dinner in a steakhouse. We were seated in the bar area...this is like 3 year after my WLS...but yeah I still weighted around 300lbs down from 500. My roommate about 50lbs heavier than me. Well this drunk guy walks up and says you might tell me to f off but I work at a hospital and I see people die everyday and I just have to tell you to stop eating and killing yourself with food, etc, etc. I said you're right...go f off, you have no idea what I've done to improve my health, and perhaps you need to stop drinking and killing yourself with alcohol. Some people at the bar yelled his name and told him to get out...then asked us what he said...I told them...they were more horrified than we were. The manager came over to apologize then comp'd our meals.
