Whats it like being fat???

Hi gang just been thinking What its truly like being fat?and just saying bloody terrible is a bit of an understatment lol.I am over 20 stones So here is my ten pence worth what its like being fat and what im sick off.feel free to add to my rant.


when you put your socks on you feel like your head is gonna come off.
Sick of sweating buckets in the summer and being worried incase i stink of sweat.
Hate hunting all over for clothes only to find that the only thing that will fit you is a three man dome tent.
sick of feeling like the fattest guy in the room.
i really hate it when my legs rub together so much my legs get sore.
even going to a theme parks a nightmare because you think" can my backside fit in that chair or will the bar come all the way down.
if you go to a takeaway(yes its naughty) and you order something for the entire family you wonder if the guy/girl serving you is thinking"is it all for him?"
sick of having no confidence?

And the list goes on and on.And that why i thought when people say i bet its not nice being big or i hate being big just does not cut it really does it?? thanks for listening,and like i said feel free to jump in.

i know its a serious rant..but mate...when i read that statement i laughed so hard i had to take my glasses off and wipe the tears away

you know what...this also made me chuckle (i dont get annoyed....it gives you wrinkles ).....i went into mcdonalds a few weeks ago.....and ordered my usual...McChicken sandwich meal....and the skinny bit on the counter said

"what drink with that"
i replied "coke please"
she said "is that diet?"

cheeky b*tch!!! i had to laugh at her face though when i replied "do i look like i need to diet?!?"

she didnt know what to say or where to look!!

Diet: Gastric Bypass
Surgery Date: 08/11/2008
I have to agree, I hate getting in the bath and trying to scrub my feet its does feel like your head is going to blow. I also suffered awful sweating in the summer and work with a load of skinny minnies who wanted the heating on full blast at work. So I was given a fan which made me feel really self concious. They make comments that I am having hot flushes due to the menopause (I am not menopausal). When on holiday I sweated so much my friend thought I was wetting my pants it was so horrible. I also feel if I laugh and joke with a bloke (like I always used to do) they will be thinking god desperate fat woman etc. I get a decision on tuesday to see if I can have bypass or banding I pray I get a yes because I want my life back....xx

Good thread!!
I hate being on holiday and not feeling confident enough to go and have fun with my wee guy in the pool. And when you've not seen someone in a while and you get that look of "god shes become a porker".
Changing rooms that let you see yourself at every angle and coming home really down when you can't find anything nice that fits you. My feet being too fat for all my nice shoes.
Feeling like I'm gonna burst walking up a hill. Bumping off every seat when walking down an airplane aisle. God!!!! I could go on and on.

I cant wait to be able to have the arguement with airline staff about the weight of my bag......"Well i only weigh some tiny amount.....so ill have extra weight to use in my bag" lol

Only kidding. But i had someone point to me once and say " well look at her, i weigh less than she does so i can have extra weight in my bag."

You know what, anyone who is small-minded and spiteful enough to make nasty remarks about your size isn't worth worrying about. I know it's easy to say but it's true!
Hold your heads high and be proud that you would never make a cruel remark to someone about their appearance (except the woman who called me a "skinny *****" in a shop at xmas - I'd done nothing to her and I'm a size 14 ffs!)
