When I sat down after my shower today in a big sleep shirt and my underwear after tempting to tuck my belly in it, the elastic popped. Guess I'm bigger than an 7XL!!

Munchies:
That is impressively wide. Are you going to keep on the gain train, or are you still trying to slow down?

BigBallBellyGirl:
Definitely slowing down now, just because I think I've hit a point where daily obstacles are rapidly feeling more pronounced. Given that I'm not super tall, I think another 100 pounds would strand me at home entirely, and I'm not ready for that.

Munchies:
Getting fat isn't as enjoyable if you can't be a person too. Good luck to you in finding your balance.

BigBallBellyGirl:
That's absolutely right. Fortunately, I have a great partner who wants to have a lot of future adventures together and would, though he loves my obese body, support me whether I wanted to be an 8XL or a size 2. So it's not like I have someone in my house who is working against me. I just have to get in the right headspace and shift some habits to maintain.

I think I’m starting to get there now. I’ve never been very fit but I’ve always been able to walk endlessly around town and hike a fair bit. A 6 hour walk along the river and city was nothing at all for me.
But since the middle of the festive period, I’ve started to really feel the weight when walking at all. Weighed myself today and I’m up a total of 6lbs since autumn. Most of that gained rapidly over Xmas and new year and I am REALLY feeling it. It’s not even that it’s much harder to walk, I also don’t want to walk anymore. I work laying on my back in bed as it helps my belly flatten out a bit which gets around the problem of my belly getting in the way of the desk.

Can't sleep on my stomach.
More flexibility required for showering.

But one of the most "Oh shit I'm fat." Reminders I get, is putting on shoes. Tying laces. Etc.

Aside from the obvious "I feel soft now", that's the most notable indicator for me.

There are others too.

Peekaboo belly is a big one, but I tend to wear baggier clothes so I tend to avoid that. Lol

Yesterday when I was using my new laptop, I thought the trackpad wasn't working. Turns out my belly fat was pressing on it.

Kind of embarrassed…. but asked a cart collecting kid yesterday in parking lot of the grocery store to just back my car out a few feet. I didn’t have enough room to open the door fully to get in.

Just today I embarrassingly had to get in my car through my passenger side door (and struggle to climb over the center console) because someone parked too close to my driver side door and like I know an average sized person could've probably gotten in just fine 😭 people were watching too 😩

Realizing your idea of "cutting back" is still a ton of food to everyone else.

Example: Yesterday, my fiance and I went to eat and get beers with friends. My fiance ordered a Greek salad and had two vodka drinks. One friend got 6 wings, a side salad, and 2 beers; the other had a burger and fries. I had a double turkey burger, fries, a full size Buffalo chicken salad, two beers, and a piece of turtle cheese cake. I consider that a very modest meal, but my food was still taking up half the table!
