I bath every night rather than shower and I love those puff things that are made out of a sort of netting to get a good lather going on. I came home from work one evening and got ready for my bath and found a body puff tucked under my stomach. It had been there since the night before.

    I knew I had to lose weight when I was placed on bp meds and my father died due to illnesses associated with obesity. And when my son was born. I wanted to live long enough to see his first birthday.

    Oh, No! Congratulations on your success so far. I knew I had to lose weight when...the kids in my preschool classes said that they liked to hug me because I was so "squishy"!

    hahahahaha NO WAY! wow. glad u decided to make a change!

    for me it was when I split my pants lol. literally. i have a big booty and thick legs so i always have to wiggle into my jeans but 2 summers ago i ripped one of my favorite pairs :grumble:

    I realized it wasn't just a big booty problem it was all of me needed to get in shape!

    OMG that sounds horrible....
    (something to laugh about when you look back)


    I knew I had to lose weight when......................my 4 year old told his daddy he didn't need a new trampoline (after it broke), because mummy had a fat bouncy tummy.
    I knew I had to lose weight when..................... my 6 year old asked me if the new baby was going to be a boy or girl (not pregnant this time)

    I've never had that happen...did you fall asleep in the bath while washing up?

    I knew I had to lose weight when..

    - I couldn't stand for more than 5 minutes at a time.

    - When I realized I became a bad friend for not wanting to join my friends during holidays (mainly halloween) and go to a place called Haunted Trails or the Haunted Hotel. I couldn't walk it.

    - Realizing that when I buy a car that I can't get "the cute one". I have to get the one that I fit in...

    - I want to be in a relationship and I DIDN'T love myself so how can I expect someone else to love me.

    - I also want to have children at some point and my obesity won't get me there.

    - I realized I decided on a career that would aid in sitting all day long...when what I really wanted to do was go to culinary school (required standing)

    - Flying to the UK (or flying in general) is/was very uncomfortable. I've been lucky had have had awesome people who've sat by me who are very understanding. Not having to ever squeeze into the seat and ask for a seat belt extender.

    - Being able to fit on rides at parks

    - Not being able to fit in booths at restaurants....

    There are tons more but these are the ones that pop into my head right now.

    I knew I had to lose weight when....

    1) My fiance proposed and I pictured my current body in a wedding gown

    2) When my weight prone areas (thighs/butt) became so full that my body started a muffin top

    3) I was pant shopping and had to try on pants a size up

    4) When I hit 150...never again

    When you get in the bath and the water behind you sits higher than the water in front and when it drains away, its all gone in front but still left behind you! also when you end up sitting half perched on the sani bin in the public bathrooms cos your booty hangs over the end of the seat oooooooow.

    i overheard my wife complaining about me to her cousin. Kinda blows the confidence! And not fair to her since she is not overweight. Good news is i'm halfway to my goal!
