What's everyone's fat secret?
I had a few. One of them was, I had a draw full of the same underwear. They are black and same brand and style.
They were the only underwear that would stay up over my fat stomach and they were the only underwear that I could find that fit without looking like I was wearing a bog catcher haha!

I bet everyone has a secret like that. When I think of my others I will post them!

    I used to sneak a pint of ice cream at least 3 nights a week before I sent to bed. Dove chocolate obsession was the flavor. Obsession is very accurate. Lol

    That there was comfort in getting so fat that everything was hopeless, especially relationships. I knew I was done with dating, so the pressure was off. No more settling for less than truly compatible, no more having to admit to myself that maybe there is no one out there for me, no more trying and failing.

    Then i learned I can be done with dating and not be morbidly obese.

    I laughed at this. Good job!

    At my highest weight, I was straddling the line between normal and overweight by 0.1, according to BMI. I was preoccupied with whether people saw me as normal, or chubby. My entire wardrobe was pretty much chosen specifically to 'disguise' my chubbiness, so people might think I was skinny. People just assumed that I liked wearing sweaters and flair jeans year-round, but that actually isn't my taste in clothing at all. Now my fashion options are much less limited.

    During my college days a fat gf and I would
    drive thru the drive ups and order insane
    amounts and eat until we were sick .. sadly,
    that was my idea of dealing with problems.

    Not sure why I didn't figure that out sooner. Our human brains, they are not logical!

    I still would.

    But I'm pretty much asexual. So.

    On a serious note, though, I once ate an entire pack of Oreos. To myself. In one sitting.

    I used to do that on a weekly basis. Sometimes 2 packets.

    Back in my college days I was very poor. There were no programs, grants, or loans like there are now. After the beer money was spent out of the food budget, ramen noodles, totinos pizza, potted meat and crackers, etc. We did hunt/fish and get some nice meals that way. I weighed 135 pounds when I graduated.

    THEN - I was introduced to an expense account. All the guys I traveled with were large men and they knew where EVERY all-you-can-eat place was. We had limited vehicles so we had to load up in a couple of large carry-all vans to go anywhere. There was one restaurant choice only, unless there was one within walking distance of our hotel.

    It was a gradual thing...creeping up to 250 pounds.

    Finally - one day - I said something that rhymed with "bucket" but it started with an F.

    I would routinely get "road burgers" and eat on the road between home and work. Maybe a McChicken and a double cheeseburger. Or maybe two breakfast sandwiches, because one isn't enough, ya know? 2-3 doughnuts from the convenience store in the morning, or maybe several snacks in the evening: let's say PB cups, and Bugles, and, oh maybe Swiss Cake Rolls. I would eat all this and then eat a normal dinner with the family.

    I would usually try to buy these with cash, or else put them on a scrip card we get through our kids' school, or else buy them when I got gas. That way the expense was hidden from Mrs Jruzer. I'd usually hide the evidence under the seats or throw it out before I got home.

    As much as I can't believe I used to eat like that, even now "Fat Jruzer" would like to do it again. Mmm, burger...

    I've never had a "fat secret" is that really a thing?

    I'll share am embarassing fact, though: I used to swing by Wendy's every night on my way home from work and get a large order of fries. As a snack. Sometimes a large Frosty, too. And then I'd chug on home and make a huge pasta dinner and eat it all.

    That was never really a secret, though, so I'm not sure if it counts. :ohwell:

    I did this, too. Again, though--never a secret. I flashed my fatty-habits with pride back in the day! :laugh:

    Also not a secret but if you dip the fries in the Frosty, it's AMAZING! I don't do that any more though. Not because of my diet, because the closest Wendy's is 2 hours away!

    I would order takeout and say "we would like".. instead of "i would like" so they didn't know I was ordering enough "food for 4" just for me!

    Hmm, well..
    1.) I wear bike shorts under my skirts so I don't get the chub rub lol
    2.) I put deodorant in more places than one because I have a fear of smelling like a fat person :sick: Don't tell me you don't know what I'm talking about! (I have friends I avoid sitting beside, because I just can't handle it)
    3.) I eat my kids' halloween candy *turns away in shame*

    My mom put me on the Adkins diet when I was 8. When you do Adkins, you have to pee on these little strips of paper and it would tell you if you were within the guidelines of eating like they wanted you, I was 8, I did not do what the book and my mom told me. So, most of the time, my stick was pure white instead of the lovely shade of purple she so desired and I would be punished, she was inventive with her punishments so I hated them. I took a purple marker into the powder room with me and painted the sticks purple so she would leave me the heck alone...........

    And thus that is where my diet disaster that has spanned my whole freaking life began

    :(

    Weak. When I was around 16, I downed a box of peanut butter cups in one morning.

    Box. Please note weight.

    I got so big, my feet hurt really badly and I could barely walk. One day after trying to walk one block and nearly bursting into tears, my husband DRAGGED me into a Ross store and bought me some Sketchers Shape Ups and my feet felt amazing! I wound up hunting down and buying 3 more pairs of shoes, including two pairs of sandals for work. They don't make the sandals anymore and I knew I needed to do something or else my feet were going to pay the price.

    Also, I used to, (and still do), buy like three or four pairs of the same shirts, pants because it was rare to find something cute in my size.

    Indeed worthy of respect. This is quite an accomplishment. I love frozen Reese's or Butterfingers smashed and sprinkled on ice cream.

    I am another Wendy's Fix person, and thank goodness Wendy's is 65 miles away and I can only go if I drive up by myself, which is almost never. I do keep the splurge small, though.

    I once ate a 1/2lb block of cheese in the car, on the way home from the supermarket, as if it was an apple (just bit chunks off the block). Then I ate a whole chicken when I got home.
