Fat experiences

Do you ever really notice how far you've gotten?

Ghostfruit:
the other day i caught my reflection in the bus window and could not believe how much my belly was sticking out on my lap.



I'm still shocked when I see my reflection in mirrors, my belly can't be hidden. The thought of gaining another 100 more is so crazy to me but exciting.

Due to my belly most stores I use to shop at dont carry my size now and reality is setting in.

A few years ago (pre-diet) when I got close to 300lbs, I realized that I would need a seat-belt extender for airplane seats. I remember my belly and butt bouncing into things. Restaurant booths were always too tight. Looking forward to those days again smiley

A few years ago. When I was 480 pounds. Buy belly started touching the steering wheel in the car. And I already drive with the seat all the way back. At that moment I realized I was getting big. I then dropped some weight. And now almost back to my old weight. And almost back to touching the wheel. So exciting.

I nothing it all the time. I just noticed today that my calf fat jiggles as I waddle so that is a new sensation

My back and other parts tend to send a reminder of the bill being past due from cutting loose stuffing/eating overnight a week plus ago.


I understand that feeling all too well

Moving much slower when I go for a short walk, or grazing throughout the day and then realizing just how much I've been able to pack away....it really brings it home for me. Which just reminds me to go back for more

Wise person told me that it goes with the territory. It does beat withdrawal or other alternatives.


Same here. I got my “ big person” chair at work this week that reminds me and others how far I have come.

When I used to take public transportation; I would ride the trains (especially, the elevated trains). I would get winded climbing up the stairs to get to the platform of the train. I would take the elevator or escalator to get to the platform. When I would walk past windows or mirrors, I would see my reflection on how fat that I gotten; watching my belly bounce when I walk. When I would sit down, my belly would rest on my lap; while I take up a half of a seat.

Yeah, those experiences of looking at yourself at the reflections you see feels like an out of body experience because you know that it is you in that reflection but you are just amazed at how you have let yourself go so you become both astounded and excited and you realize that you might just be fat for the rest of your life because it will be too much work to lose it.
