in Chit-Chat
I will miss studying chairs closely before sitting in them to make sure they will hold me.
I will miss becoming a contortionist just to tie my shoes
i will miss being the biggest person in the room
I will miss hearing " you have such a pretty face"


What will you "miss"?

    expressing a strong preference for tables over booths - really just in case I don't fit
    pretending to be really bothered by the dangerousness of amusement park rides - really just in case I don't fit
    not traveling by plane in case I don't fit
    going for the chair w/o arms in case I don't fit comfortably into the chair with arms
    only buying LONG pendant necklaces in case the short necklaces don't fit
    avoiding the non-disabled stall in public restrooms in case it's a tight fit
    not going into regular clothing stores ever, in case the largest size they have doesn't fit
    avoiding motels/hotels because I love baths and their tub may be small so I don't easily fit

    See a theme, there? haha I am not yet at "goal" but have surpassed these things being an issue...I am much happier now.

    Writing on the board at school and feeling my arm move. I will be glad when that is gone. Tag lines of your pretty for your size or you wouldn't look as big if you were taller.
    *shopping at Lane Bryant or Ashley Stewart.

    I will miss feeling unpretty when I look in the mirror.
    I will miss my "dinner rolls".
    I will miss sweating in places where you're not supposed to sweat--i.e. the underboob! (Had to be honest and go there.)
    I will miss my muffin top.
    I will miss having to tuck my lower belly into my pants and skirts.
    I will miss my extra chin.
    I will miss feeling like a popped can of biscuits in my clothes.
    I will miss my joint discomfort.
    I will miss the feelings of lethargy and apathy.

    NOT!

    Hearing my dad call me fat and knowing he's right.
    Avoiding invitations to go swimming/go to water based theme parks (despite my love of them) because I didn't want to wear a swimsuit.

    1. Lane Bryant, Ashley Stewart, or Torrid.
    2. People noticing my boobs before my face.
    3. People taking pics of just my face without even asking if I wanted to have my body taken.
    4. Crying in fitting rooms.
    5. Settling.
    6. Being the fat , dark friend.
    7.A horrible attitude I had.
    One piece swimsuits.
    Last but not least, going to a club, bar or resturaunt pretty much anywhere and seeing the same exact outfits bc they got them from one of the plus size stores that I mentioned in number 1.
