What is your most embarrassing "fat" moment in your life?

Despite the fact I was 260lbs and at my heaviest, I still managed to play netball well enough in school to play for the top team. But one time, we were in the middle of match against one school we all hated in particular, partly because they were all a bunch of no good cheating asshats, partly because they were all just MEAN. (No grudges, clearly...) Anyway, it was an intense one, so much running about and chasing others and yada yada, all the usual stuff. Then at one point, one of the girls from the other school barged in front of me and I stood on her foot when I was running and she started screaming bloody murder. Now, it was quite obviously not broke or anything 'cause she walked on it straight after. But she drama-tised the whole thing, sat on the floor and cradled her foot, flipping words I didn't even know the meaning of at that point - thankfully.

Meanwhile, I went flying onto the tarmac, grazing all the way up legs and cheek in the process and having my stomach flap over my shorts in that really unflattering way. Basically, with a splat. Then what happens? The coach from the other school comes over to the girl, doesn't even check her over but turns to me anyway and says "Jesus, you need to watch where you're going you stupid blimp! You've really hurt her." She didn't even seem to register I was bleeding and that the girl had got up and walked off. Everyone just laughed. AND we had to get a coach home with them to top it off.

It was genuinely mortifying. I actually quit the team after that, in all honesty. I still cringe thinking about it now.

We were at church and after services we hang around a socialize. It was late fall and chilly I was wearing a turtle neck, a fleece jacket and jeans. Since my jeans don't button all the way I had a hair tie holding it togther. Well my shirt was tight and riding up. I picked up the baby and YAY! everyone got a good view of my big old fat jelly belly with my hair tie holding my jeans together.

We all laghed it off and blamed it on the baby but I often thought about it in the weeks after while getting ready to go to services. I now make sure I have enough to cover me completely.

I hate those little spinning counter things that are at fairs,amusement parks, etc.....i have to turn sideways, then go on my tippy toes so my butt lifts above them so i can actually go through.

omg me too! I go to concerts a lot and most places have them. I could barely fit through last time I went. Hopefully by my next concert it won't be such a problem.

Multiple:

The most recent was getting out of someone's pool, and I snapped the step and cut my foot open. While I was told not to worry about it, it was getting old, a bunch of people had gotten out of the pool just fine without it snapping on them. It may not have been my weight, but it just happened to happen to the fattest person there. How could I have not been humiliated?

I was at the beach and going on this ride on the boardwalk, and was the only one who had trouble getting the protection bars to come down. I blamed my boobs at the time, because once I adjusted a little bit, I was fine (for the most part), but I know my weight was one of the issues. I spent the rest of the night wanting to cry. A bunch of people, including my boyfriend, had to watch as the ride guy had to fight with the bars.

And, of course, multiple times I've had to fight with protection bars and seatbelts on rides. You never feel huge until you get in a tiny seat and have to get stuff to click. Then the rest of the ride, you panic because your bar clicked only once.

I wasn't even present for the moment... My husband actually kicked a customer out of the bar we own for making comments about how fat I was after having our baby. He is too sweet to have told me about it, but one of our friends let it slip. I don't want him to ever have to defend me like that again!

I guess last night is the most recent embarrassing "fat" moment. . .I asked my husband for a bite of his burrito and he told me that I couldn't have a bite and then he told me he loves me, but he'd love me more without diabetes (*kitten*, I don't even have diabetes). I guess he saw it somewhere on TV, but it still pissed me off. Telling me I'm fat without straight out saying it. Pisses me off just thinking about it actually, lol.

bump

Also everytime i see my grandfather he tells me he wishes i would loose weight. I went to visit him in the hospital and stood there for 10 minutes while my uncle explained to me why i was fat and what i needed to do to loose weight. All i was doing was visiting my grandfather. I was so embarrased i ran out crying.

That's so hurtful .

I went to a crab feast at someone's home with a large group of people.

I was sitting in a chair at the table eating and the chair fell apart underneath me. I was so embarrassed I had to leave....:blushing:

"When are you due, you should be so excited ?" (random people at the supermarket or so)
"hmmm.... i'm not pregnant" (me thinking: can I disappear, now ?)

and also, not embarassing, but making me feeling very bad, when my dad (who has always be very mean to me with my weight) offered me a scale for christmas

Oh, I went skiing for the first time a few years ago. They had to find me extra wide boots, and even then I was in terrible pain the entire time because my fat getting in the way twisted my legs at an odd angle. I should have just skipped the slopes (in retrospect it was kind of dangerous), but I was embarrassed and stubborn. One of my friends invites me out to his parent's house to ski every single winter and I make up lame excuses to avoid it because I don't want to go through that again. Maybe I'll take him up on it this year?

when everyone ask me if I'm pregnant, and most embarrasing when they ask me in front of my husband :devil: instead of answering I want to kick their buttttt

Mine was last summer - when it REALLY hit me I HAD to lose weight...



I was at a local theme park that I always go to in the summer, and I got on my favourite ride (Which I waited in line for for OVER 2 hours!)

Well, sure enough, I got in the seat, but when I pulled down the chest piece that holds you in, it wouldn't lock..
The attendant said to grab another seat as it may be that seat.. so I did.. and same problem.
Sure enough EVERYONE knew what was wrong - I was to fat to ride the ride..

MOST EMBARRASING WALK OFF THAT RIDE.
I ended up not going on anything else and just walking and watching my friends go on everything for the rest of the day.

$65 to find out I was to fat for the rides.

My first boyfriend (I believe I was twelve) broke up with me because I was "weird and fat." I don't think my feelings had ever been hurt so badly in my life. I was 12, 5' 4'' and a size 9 to 11 and had no chest. I believe after that I started losing weight. I went from a size 9 or 11 to a 2 or 4, then in high school I was an 8. The hilarious thing was that he sent me a Facebook message when I was 19 or 20 saying how hot I was and asking if he had a chance... while he was dating one of my friends.

when my daughter in the 2nd grade cried because a boy in her class told her her mommy was fat.

I have several, but my daughter once said that she didn't want to grow up and be fat like me. And one time, her friend as her mom right in front of me, "Mommy, why her mom so BIG?" Kids say the rudest things! I wanted to smack the crap out of that little girl but I laughed it off and then cried later.
