-when your friends say that you should put air quotes around the word "run" whenever you use it in a sentence because you don't actually do Webster's definition of running
-when your friends ask you why you move your arms so much and grunt when you run yet don't go anywhere
-when your friends ask you to throw your head back and put your hands on your stomach when you laugh so that you look like Santa Clause

When you go out all the time in joggers !0

When the waiter gives the other person the salad and assumes you ordered the fattening meal.0

When you order a diet soda with your super-sized value meal lol.
Doesn't the diet soda cancel the meal out?0 -
I agree as well. Changing distorted thoughts is a big component regardless of one's weight/physical appearance. I was one of those people who gained a lot of weight after becoming extremely fit.Just an observation:
Some of these are just physical realities and we're working on them. I've experienced some of them and many of them are just NSVs waiting to happen! (I just realized I don't do the pillow thing anymore, and it made me feel great!)
Some of these you can change today by letting go of your own insecurities (me too, no judgement). Decide to step out and take a risk, be in the photo, go to the gym and know that you "belong", go out with your friends, smile etc.
A HUGE step in my journey has been finding confidence, I've seen many people lose weight and actually become less happy! Lots of people think they'll be happy or people will like them more or they'll be more successful or whatever once they're thin, but you're still you, and that can be a let down for some people. If you can be confident NOW, chub and all, the svelte figure will just be an added bonus; but please don't wait to be thin to live your life to the fullest!
Agreed. I've been taking more photos than ever. Tomorrow isn't promised, and that is a reality. Question, what is a NSV?0 -

Mind you, only the first 3 things have been actually said to me & this was when I was fit playing volleyball!
Me and running just don't get along lmfao I don't think i should run unless I'm being chased & even then--if someone's chasing me, it must be an important reason & i just should stop. Lol
I'm just the sarcastic kind. Don't think I'm like bullied or anything! Far from it!0 -
When you go shopping for a brand of jeans you used to wear and the sales lady says "Oh Hon, they don't make those in your size!"0
-
cajosor, I don't run. Running hurts. Not my legs, not my feet, not my lungs. It hurts my chest. I've tried a bunch of different sports bras, I've tried layering them, I've tried a sports bra over my real bra. Nothing works. So I'll chase the kids in the yard or run from my neighbors very nasty little dog but running for fitness isn't happening. I've seen people get a lot of enjoyment out of running and also a lot of health benefits from it too so this is kind of a disappointment for me.0

You feel comfortable making fat jokes about yourself !!!!!0
-
you know you're fat when you're watching a movie in the theaters, and instead of you watching the movie you're watching if you're breathing too loud.0
-
chafing of inner thighs.
yup :sad:0 -
A girl you thought was much bigger than you says "like 5 people came up to me today at the library thinking I was you!"
You have a panic attack when your boyfriend tries to pick you up.
You don't want to wear your hair down because you hate how your neck looks.
Get asked if your pregnant 3 times in a month.
Your legs ache after going grocery shopping.0 -
When your six year old tells you he is going to show you how to not be fat anymore. :frown:0
-
When you can never find anything to wear. All the clothes look good on display but horrible on you.
When you always sit with something covering your stomach. This, especially, this (I still do this :sad: )
When you pull and pull your shirt to try to cover your muffin top.
When you can never find any jeans to wear because you're either too short for the size that fits or most probably you can't find any that fits.
When your thighs are ready to start a fire when you so much as walk for half and hour.
When you're too embarrassed to workout at gyms because everyone there are all skinny and fit.
When you sit down in the car you do it slowly so that the car doesn't shake and people start pointing.
When you have never allow anyone to get close or dated because of your size.
When your friend said that your other friend is the pretty one and you're the smart one. That hurts quite a lot although it's an insult to both of us.
When you're so afraid to wear high heels because you are scared you will break the heels.
When you are afraid to order your favourite thing in the restaurant because you're are afraid that they will judge you and say that that must be why you're fat.
Like the other posters said, I can go on and on. The list is endless. I still find myself doing a lot of these things even though some of them are unnecessary now.0 -
I was doing my morning walking in the neighborhood alone because my wife was recovering from heart surgery. I had on grey sweats as it was a little cold. A random child probably about 4 yrs old saw me and said to his mother "Look mom Humpty Dumpty!"0
-
OUCH!! my little cousin told me am fat coz I eat a lot of fats.... really not true:frown: darn kids with their innocence!!0
-

-
your jeans get worn between the thighs before anything, and you throw them away when holes develop to avoid chaffing of your inner thighs0
-
When a random man in the street yells at you "hey fat girl" what a motherf@ker lol that made me cry!

When you wear a shirt and shorts to the pool and then after its time to get out you hesitate because of how your big stomach looks under that soaking wet black shirt.
and then a little kid at the pool loudly asks their mom why that woman is not wearing a swim suit, and everyone looks at you0 -
When all of your pictures are of your face and taken from a higher angle0
