Unexpected changes

Cutting toenails gets noticeably harder


I noticed this too, but also just bending over to reach anything in general. Like if you drop something on the floor or have to tie your shoes its hard to reach and hard to breathe!

A few new unexpected changes are emerging. I think I am starting to snore now. I caught myself wake up because of it. I didnt think anything like that would happen for another 50 lbs! Also, my feet are starting to hurt more. I just feel slow and heavy when I step. Not enough to stop from more binging today though smiley

Unexpected changes

For me:

1. My balance is slightly off with a fast gain
2. Bending over (as mentioned) takes my breath away
3. Clumsier movements
4. When sitting straight up my belly sits out in front of me on my lap
5. bending over to tie shoes is way more difficult
6. A little embarrassing how much I need to eat to get full
7. Much lazier, I think about eating more than I do moving


For my wife:

1. Watching her slower movements with her extra weight
2. Watching how fast she eats now....like someone will steal her food.
3. Watching her eat desserts slowly and softly like she is having an orgasm
4. Watching her go through a bar of bath soap in the shower very quickly with all the weight she has gained in the last year or so
5. Watching her sit down on the couch with her belly out in front of her on her lap
6. Watching her put on an article of clothing in the closet and change 2 or 3 times because it didn't fit and then come out with something on that fit's but look's a couple sizes to small now (I love this one)
7. Watching her buy all kinds of snacks and treats at the store knowing she doesn't plan on dieting anytime soon because her appetite has got the best of her (really love this one)

Unexpected changes

I tend to eat when I don't have much to do during the weekends. Putting up with other people who seem to think it is their business to remind me how fat I am getting. Sometimes, I find myself thinking I am still a thin person until I can't fit into a booth like I use to or putting on nice shoes. Having lunch at work with people who are fatter than me now because the thin people can't understand why I am getting fat too. Other than that, I really do like shopping for bigger clothes.
