    I had gotten the biggest stability ball I could find. Made for really tall people, etc. So I blow this thing up last night and go to sit on it and I swear I almost bottomed out on the floor. My bf and I just looked at each other and cracked up. I was so glad it didnt explode, but the tension running through that bad boy at the time of impact made me kinda nervous. I swear the ball was visibly trembling under the strain! My bf helped me up, and it shot out from under me straight to the other side of the room (like it was running away or something). Ah well! :ohwell:

    When I was heavier I did break a plastic chair sitting on it too hard.

    Yeah. I broke my husband's brand new office chair, after years of being so careful about what I trusted with my weight. I lost 130 lbs, and then broke his new chair--the air/shock adjustable part. Yeah, the humiliation was pretty intense, though I try not to think about it too much. If I hadn't lost weight, it wouldn't have happened because I wouldn't have sat on the thing. I just thought I'd lost enough. I was wrong :-/

    i said s n i g g e r e d :/ as in laughed....

    Do you mean "snickered?" Please tell me that's what you meant to say....

    The word is S******ED, and it's not a racial thing.

    It's a perfectly acceptable and "real" word that has nothing to do with the racial slur--look it up, folks.

    Ok, I guess this varies by country. In North America, it's snicker. Sorry. The word that is being filtered is a word that makes me uncomfortable, but I see that the word that makes me uncomfortable is not what was intended.

    I had horrible luck on vacation one year! We were staying at a friends cabin and decided to have a bonfire. Brought a bunch of old lawnchairs out of the garage not knowing that they had been sitting for years. First I sat in a plastic chair, that broke. I moved to a fabric style one and that broke! Finally I gave up and went to sit on a tree stump only to find out it was dead and dry when a chunk of it fell off when I sat on it! Lesson learned, should have grabbed a rock like everyone else! lol My kids teased me forever but at least I knew it was old dry furniture that was the culprit!

    I broke my uncle's antique guest bed when visiting him. I was mortified and weighed less than I do now. I live in fear of breaking a restaurant chair.

    I broke a hammock last summer the ropes actually broke sending me to the ground, a step on a ladder that was a scary moment, a metal folding chair folded up on me like a piece of tinfoil and those plastic lawn chairs are my worst enemy if they dont break my big hips would get stuck in them,My grandma got stuck in the turnstyle at the racetrack that was bad and scarred me for life I hate those things.

    My chair at work creaks and clicks all the time. I'm not sure if it's because of me or if it was like that when I started but it makes me feel fat =(

    And I've broken a bed frame but that was less contributed to weight, and more contributed to motion :blushing:

    Exercise ball. One minute I was doing sit-ups on my exercise ball the next my back was crashing to the hard floor. It's a pretty rotten feeling breaking workout equipment because you're so fat.

    I know someone that tripped over an exercise ball and broke her shoulder from the fall. Scary part is that she's probably an average weight. Those things are dangerous!!!!

    As far as what I've broken, toilet seats, chairs, a bed frame, lawn furniture, etc.

    At my all-time heaviest, about 15 years ago, I was just minding my own business, sitting on a farm-style wood dining room chair. Suddenly, I'm on my *kitten* on the floor, not realizing for a few seconds what had just happened. All 4 legs of the chair just gave out, splayed out in 4 directions, and I'm still sitting on the chair seat. On the floor. Somehow, I did get punctured in the butt by a screw from one of the chair legs, and it ripped a hole in my favorite pair of flannel jammie boxers. My daughters and I could not stop laughing, even as I picked myself up and saw a stream of blood running down the back of my leg. Ahhhh, good times!
