You buy your shoes a size bigger than you wear and tie them loose so you don't have to bend over to tie them...you just slip them on...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.
I always thought I couldn't run because of my chest (DDs) but I started watching The Biggest Loser and if those girls can do it, so can I. I bought a really good supportive underwire sports bra (Champion) and just started doing it. 30 sec at a time, a min at a time... I'm up to 6 min straight, 2 min walking and 6 min running, etc. I can do a 5k in 37ish min this way...
I wish I was a DD!! I was a DD by the time I graduated high school in 1994. I am a 36 HH and believe me those 3 or 4 letters in between there make a big difference. Champion doesn't make a sports bra to fit me. I have a few good ones I bought from a company called Bravissimo that makes or sells bras and bra sized swimwear for girls with big boobs. My boobs are not from being fat, I've always had big boobs and I won't lose them when I lose the weight. I never do.0 -
When you have a wardwobe of about 5 articles that you just rotate every week because you hate shopping now.
I buy all my clothes on eBay because I don't want to go shopping. ><0 -

I don't expect a ton of sympathy here, but try being a 40B. And I don't even fill it out. T_T0 -

7. Car seatbelt is too short.

When all your jeans get mystery holes on the inner thighs
It's a very sad moment when you realize that the mystery holes are from your thighs constantly rubbing together lol That's actually what made me decide to lose weight!
When you dress up as the devil for Halloween and some drunk moron asks if you're supposed to be the koolaid man. (This actually really happened to my friend. It was SO SAD!!)0 -
This is so true...
Kids point at you in the store
Random strangers yell obscenities at you calling you not so nice names
You can't get on the floor to play with your kids because you can't get up without help
You wear pajamas all the time because jeans are uncomfortable
You don't like going in public to eat because the servers raise their brow as you order
You're afraid to try to date
You go to the bar with your skinny friends and stand in the corner all night as they get hit on
It takes a few tries to get up off the chair
You can't stand up to do the dishes because your feet and back ache
You call the person in the next room because you don't want to use the effort of getting up
You need your kids to fetch things for you because it's too hard for you
You can't touch your toes or tie your shoes comfortably

You suck in your tummy when you stand on the scale.
You weigh yourself BEFORE your shower.
You unbutton your jeans as soon as you get home.
You hope getting a haircut might show a little loss on the scale.
Scales at the doctor's office are inaccurate...after all...you are fully dressed.
Oh lmao!!, guilty of the last three, but the first two are priceless
))))
I also find this post very inspiring, to know I am not the only one to speed up to a faster pace to cross at a stoplight before it changes and be afraid that EVERYONE can see my boobs bouncing up and slapping my triple chins!, but in all honesty, at the time I am only hoping and praying that I can make the curb without my knees giving out and being that person that falls splat on their face in public!0 -
You just want to wear comfy clothes and stay home.
LOL this is the story of my current life and I'm not even fat anymore hahaha.0 -
Sympathy here, I don't fill 42A. But at least it's not painful when we work out - or not THERE, anywayI wish I was a DD!! I was a DD by the time I graduated high school in 1994.

When you have to rock back and forth to get out of bed and you end up rocking yourself back to sleep.
:laugh:0 -
i agree with everything said here!! this post made me remember the time when i was about 11 (i was obese my whole life) and i was in the queue at Mcdonald's and this guy behind me in his 20's was right behind me and said 'oh fatty is hungry' 'fatty is going to order McDonalds' something along those lines, I was so horrified even at that age that someone thinks they can talk to someone. I remember at that moment I wanted the ground to open up and swallow me!0
