I just posted a new blog entry about my most embarrassing moment that was caused by my weight.
Ever been too heavy for an amusement park ride? I have. Ouch. That hurts.
What's your most embarrassing moment?
Here's mine...http://www.myfitnesspal.com/blog/shwnstnsn/view/my-most-embarrassing-moment-65912

    Similar - at work had to ask for chairs in the conference rooms that didn't have arms cause I couldn't fit into the chairs with arms. And forget about movie theatres. Used to love drive-ins cause I couldn't fit into theatre seats.

    Oh and being at the fast food and hearing one cashier ask another is that all ffoodor one person?

    While pregnant with my 2nd child I fell down a flight of stairs, I was stuck between the 1st and 2nd floor. An ambulance had to be called and since I was in between floors they couldn't get a stretcher up there to get me down. They pulled the chair thingie out that they carry people in times the stretcher can't be used right away. The EMTs could NOT lift me!! They had to wait for the firefighters to get there and it took FOUR people to carry me down ... 2 firemen and 2 EMTs ... and they weren't little guys these EMTs.
    Now don't think that I can use being 7 months pregnant as an excuse ... because at that time in my pregnancy I had LOST 20 lbs .... for me that was the worst!

    I should probably add that I had a broken foot, sprained knee, elbow, and big toe ... no harm was done to the baby ... I did that much damage to myself by turning so I wouldn't land on my belly

    I know that chair problem all too well. When we gather for family meals at my parents there are two chairs with arms that only my small wife and my sister's small husband can sit in. Looking forward to sitting in one of thse comfortably one day.

    Yeah, I can see how that would be embarrassing. Glad you (and the baby) didn't have any major injuries.
