Fat experiences

No haha. I have done the opposite though. The other day I went to the grocery store in tight clothes (which is all my clothes now) that you could see my big belly sticking out and jiggling. I enjoyed all the stares I was getting as I filled my cart with ice cream, cookies, and chocolates, all while drinking a large starbucks frappuccino with whipped cream. I bet some of them had seen me before and were thinking about how fat i got so fast haha.

I guess I would behave differently if they were coworkers though.

Funny thing! The other day going through the line at our grocery store feeling a little embarrassed ....Ok a lot embarrassed when I put up 4 pints of ben n jerrys, 2 boxes of ice cream sandwiches, 4 packages of cookies, 2 bags of chocolates and a few bags of chips and nothing else.

I felt very strange.... not that anyone said anything but I felt very strange.

Our grocery store doesn't have a self check out or that would certainly be an option for me.

It's crazy to think how awkward I felt and my wife pretty much killed all that in 4-5 days so I am back at it....I might have to find a self checkout store close by.

I refuse to use self checkout on general principle, no matter how long the line is. If the store doesn't have to pay someone to checkout my groceries then that should reflect in a discount on my purchases.

I tend to use the Self checkout myself in my local supermarket. I work on the normal checkouts, so I get a little more privacy if I go through the self checkout. Though people can still be nosy, especially if they see mainly junk food like crisps and sweets... Sometimes I get some smart comments, but I usually give a cheeky or witty reply!

That's pretty HOT in my book!

Lol yeah I didn't realize this till I read your comment, but I just bought a bunch of cookies, drumstick ice cream, chips, and carrots (hey, got to have those vitamins) and my cashier asked if I had big plans for tonight. It didn't register that he asked on account of my haul, so I just said "not really". Then he said "just livin' it big then". Didn't realize it was a backhanded compliment until now haha.

If you like such questions, more power to you!

If not, the best answer to nosy questions (even non-food-related ones) is: "Why do you ask?"

I can understand this as I do the same thing with the consideration of how some people who know me have highlighted the fact " That it looks like I have been eating well".
