    When you ride your bike and get off to check if the tires are low cause as you ride, they're going sorta flat where they meet the road- and they're tight as can be.

    When you find out your aunt-in-law has been texting your mother-in-law about how sad it is to watch your "life in a constant decline" and then debate whether or not you're a food and alcohol addict. :s

    Also, being asked when I'm due.

    Aaaaand getting memberships to gyms and weight loss programs as birthday and Christmas presents.

    When your mom tells you, "You just don't look good."

    Oh snap. :flushed:

    I overheard my grandma telling my grandpa she thought I was getting chubby! Really grandma....? She'd say things like "you're big boned, and can carry some extra weight though". My grandma is not super thin herself lol!

    When you have tickets to go to a hockey game and you go to the sporting goods store to buy a new sweatshirt to wear to the game. Not one thing in either the women's or men's department fits! Down 26 pounds since then!

    When I went to a band reunion and fans from the old days did not recognize me. Had to accept it was not just about the current short hair vs. the long hair back in the day. The skinny long haired guitar player from the '90s had turned into an overweight old man. Do I really look that different. Nope, just fatter. Time to get back in shape and lose the 70 extra pounds.

    When I see fit and toned women like Claire Underwood or Selina Meyers on TV and want to look like them ...

    When you can grab your rolls. Also, when you start resenting the thin girls around you for no reason other than they're thin, and their legs look great. That's an unhealthy mind AND an unhealthy body!

    When your preschool class is obsessed with your huge "wobbly muscles" on your arms.

    It's time to get in shape when I can squish my tummy fat and make my stomach talk to my 2-year-old son. Fun, but rather alarming.

    When you have to take a big breath of air before going down to tie your shoes or paint your toenails.

    When non of your clothes fit and kids in your class ask you if you are having a baby and you tell them no whole thinking to yourself man my stomach has gotten so large. Also realizing that your seatbelt is riding up as you dive because it is fighting for a space on your lap with your expanding stomach.

    @onthatStuff When people hear you coming down the hall (i.e., Thunder Thighs rubbing together) way before they see you! LOL :smiley: Also, when your butt stops fitting in the seats at your favorite concert venue. Real personal experiences, people. LOL :smiley: Michelle

    When my six year old daughter was helping me fold laundry, she grabbed my underwear and said, "Wow mom! Your underwear are huge!" Yep. Time for a change.

    My six year old said "Mom you have a big fat belly!" And when I thought a 280' sand dune climb might literally kill me as he ran up it.

    When you have to sit down to get dressed.

    When you have to put your knees out so there is room for your belly and breathing on the rowing machine

    When the kids start asking if you are having children (not just 1 but multiples!! !)

    When you are buying from 50+ in your 40s

    When you don't own anything without an elastic waistband

    Your coworker is concerned that you are deathly ill just because you didn't eat a doughnut from a box someone brought in. You feel badly that it is a foregone conclusion that you'll eat them, so you have 2 to cheer you up.

    When your waist disappears and becomes bigger than your chest (ladies know what I mean).
    When all of your jeans are too tight.
