SOCIAL:
*I have had random women who try and sell me their weight loss drug. They start with small talk and act as if their a nice person wanting to get to know me then BOOM they start talking about health, I give in and say yea am trying to lose a few pounds and then they so happen to either have the product on them or give me their number so we can set a place to meet so they can sale me some mess. Like one told me it helped a women lose 20 pounds and she also exercised and ate less....um was it the eat less move more or the pill? And 20 pounds? That poor women was scammed!
*People tend to want to talk behind your back, just because am fat doesn't mean I eat unhealthy ALL the time. I just over eat on healthy and no so healthy foods. Like I bought this green drink at Publix*Other well known stores sale it as well. Well my manager talked behind my back saying she doesn't know why I just don't get on a healthy diet inside of taking shakes and such. Um...I wasn't on a diet that day and I just liked the veggie/fruit smoothie its one of my favorites.
*Just because your fat people either don't want to hang out with you, or they do so they can look better in public. Few will be a real friend no matter if your fat or small, also some want to be your friend just because your slim too.
*Because of my size I had guys say am the perfect girlfriend, but my size. Meaning they rather a slim women who would run over them then a fat girl who treats them like her equal.
*You become one of the guys. Its mainly the good looking guys with goals who do this, they love coming up to a fat girl saying why oh why they can't get a good girlfriend? They say how they meet her at a club and she was a bartender and wonder why she cheated? um....her job is around loads of men who tip her and sometimes she flirts for those tips. Or they point out what type of girl they like, but then complain how she cheated or how she uses him, when a fat women (most not all) will be faithful to the end!
*At clubs or parities or any other get together you never have to worry about standing around bored waiting for any one to notice you, people come to you. So your never the odd one out feeling oddish.
*You tend to get men who want you to take care of them or men looking for sex only because they think a fat women will take anyone since she is not desired. some men are good, but date fat women because that means they never have to worry about other men checking her out. Its rare, but possible to find a great man when large, but when you lose weight if he leaves you that means he was dating you because your cheap(Your not buying new clothes like crazy and shoes) you stayed out of shape(No guys were checking you out and you depended only on him because no better exist you believe)
*I have been turned down for jobs due to my size
PHYSICAL:
*You may be really active like me, but problem is like me you get tired fast since you have to work harder just to move a large body!
*I hate thinking am speed walking only to have someone thin or slightly chubby walk right past me at a slow pace as my legs are moving as fast as they can. I can only out walk unfit old people
*I wake up feeling I can't walk on my feet well. If I walk (I enjoy walking sometimes) I start limping after a hour on my feet, I feel no pain, but I feel myself limping. Pass an hour then I feel pain. I also was born with my ankles going in, when thin you had to see it with x-rays and see my bone structure, but overweight my bones went in more so now you can see it.
*I can't jump in fear of harming my joints. I would love to jump rope as a form of exercise, but I can't.
My knees hurt.
*I can't do basic or advanced yoga, I can't run beyond 10 seconds and my running appears more of a slow jog.
MIND
*You wonder in the back of your mind how your life could of been if thin.
*You wonder if so and so will like you if you were smaller
*You think of food through out the day, I can't eat that....over and over, then its I can't believe I binged so tomorrow will be better I promise...
*Being over weight can make you feel badly about yourself
APPEARANCE:
*If a thin girl and a fat girl dressed the same the fat one would appear loose and tacky by culture standards
*You can't pull off the latest trend too well, you can try, but its a lost cause
*You can get discolored skin tone
*Loose skin hanging
*For interviews you really have to dress up your fat, less effort for a thin person.
*People judge fat people as lazy right away, when thin co-workers don't have to prove how hard they work and some are very lazy. Where I worked I worked hard to the point other co-workers told me to slow down! But then there were those who judged me as not a hard worker or who did very little. It took me not working there and now behind in work to to see that I did a lot and kept things in place.
GOING OUT:
*Seeing a sign on weight limit to ride the horse: I saw a sign 250 was the max
*Not fitting on the air plane seat
*Not beiing able to fit in the local fair ferris wheel
*Seeing that you take up a seat and a half on the bus, or your butt half hangs off a chair
*Ready to call it a day when walking on a trip such as disney world or hiking
*Your tstomach comes too close to the driving wheel of the car
*Afraid to get in a row boat in fear it may sink
