I often have to adjust my belly when I take a seat. I don't think much about it until I'm in public - trying to do so discretely really isn't possible 😅🙈 "Yes, I'm listening - excuse me while I just lift my gut and set it down on my thighs" 😂

I could certainly do with some assistance cutting my toenails, as I can't reach over my gut 🙈

May or may not have gotten stuck in a lawn chair at my parents today 😅 At least I didn't have an audience when the whole thing came with me as I stood up 🫣

Daily "i'm fat" reminders

Am I the only who spends too much time longingly scrolling through menus on delivery apps, daydreaming about all the food I'd order if I had the money? Just me? Okay then 😶 Excuse me while I picture all the sushi and greasy stir frys I crave 🤤

Daily "i'm fat" reminders

I had 2 people helpfully point out one of my shoelaces had come undone. Thank you, stranger - I'm well aware. I just simply can't reach to tie them while I'm wearing them 🙈

Anyone here use diapers because of their "situation"

I was at a festival where my friend had set up a bar in an old historic building. She asked me to watch it for her while she went to fetch something - not necessarily get behind it, but just let any customers know she'd be back soon. That's when it hit me I couldn't have made it behind the bar if I tried - the space between the side of the bar and the stone wall was cramped, but not something I would've though twice about before... now I wouldn't have the slightest chance 🙈🙈🙈

Somehow, I've fooled myself into thinking I don't really waddle... but then I see myself on some candid video, wondering who's that massive fatty waddling gut first.. - oh, that's me! 😳🐷

At the hairdressers, the chairs at the wash station were basically tilted back like beds, but not adjustable. Getting myself up and laying back in them went okay, but I knew I'd struggle getting up. Then the hairdresser wanted me to hold the towel around my hair - meaning I only had one hand free to try and pull myself up. I utterly failed, stuck on my back like a beached whale, until the hairdresser actually pushed me from behind 😬🙈 At least the other chairs were roomy and comfortable 😅

I think I need to look into getting a seat belt extender, but I'd need to keep it in my bag always 🙈 An acquaintance offered me a ride home, but I couldn't get myself buckled in... she had to grab the belt and struggle to lock it in. Safe to say I was sitting snugly when she managed it 😅

Just sat down in a chair at work, waiting for a meeting to start. It sank down ominously... praying it'll hold up for the entire meeting so I won't end up on the floor - afraid to move an inch 🙏 😅 Not that there's any room for much moving between these armrests... so also praying the chair won't come with me when I stand up. Munching on chocolate covered Oreos probably isn't helping 😬

I really do spend most of my time sitting or laying down... I only notice it because I'm always surprised to feel my belly pressing against the top of my thighs when I walk. It's not a new feeling, but evidently I haven't gotten used to it... or it's simply the fact that it's slowly hanging lower 🙈
