Fat experiences

I don't know about other countries, but during my studies in my country we have sports classes - mandatory for 2 years.

My classes were in my 3rd and 4th year of studies, which was when I first gained weight. A white shirt was required, and the one I had started to ride up on my stomach when I moved. Additionally, when jumping for the ball and generally playing, my extra 35 pounds did the trick.


Now I think of it as hot, but at the time it kind of stopped me.

Once upon a time I was a skinny bartender, and when getting ready for functions we had a few narrow shortcuts we might use, such as squeezing between the bartop and the venues dividing wall we'd just put up behind it.

After COVID, I came back to work a little chunky and one of the girls I worked with suggested I use the shortcut - I couldn't fit my fat ass through it ..

I'll never forget going to a place for lunch with family. The chairs looked unstable at best so I told my parents I'd eat outside. Mom said, "The chair will hold you!" I sat down and BAM the thing shattered. I fell to the ground, no injury, just a bruised ego. The place was packed and everyone just stared at me. No one offered to help, luckily at the time I was still mobile enough to stand on my own. But man that SUCKED.

This was a couple weeks back but the memory is seared into my brain. I was at work sitting on one of those rolly stools working on assembling a wheelchair. My boss was trying to talk to me as he was going through our stock inventory so I rolled back a bit to be able to to hear him better and one of the back wheels on the stool snapped clean off so I slid backwards onto the concrete floor. That's only chair I've broken in quite a while

One time, I was at the airport going through my bags. I bent over, and split my pants pretty bad. I couldn't change bc nothing else I had fit so I had to wrap a hoodie around my waist

Probably being out for a family event with my gfs family and being by far the biggest guy there (after having previously been quite fit), and going to sit down and not being able to fit in the chair, which as a stand alone incident wouldn’t be too embarrassing but in reaction to me not fitting I swapped chairs with my gf and broke the chair and struggled to get up after denying any help, so I had to roll onto my hands and knees and let’s just say that also didn’t help.
