Ok.....who'se brave enough to answer?!
At your heaviest weight, what was your most embarassing moment(s)?
Yeah, I know. It's only fair that I answer this too!
As if being over 420lbs wasn't embarrasing enough, I can remember at least 3 incodents.
I went to Six Flags with a few family members, and I couldn't fit on the rides. After waiting in the long lines, I squeezed myslef into one of the seats, the safety bar would not latch over my big belly. I had to get off the ride and leave infront of everyone, with lots of people witnessing the whole event! And this happened not once, but twice! I was stupid enough to try to squeeze into another ride, only to have the same thing happen! For the rest of the day, I could only watch my family have fun while me and my fiancee (who is scared of the rides) walked around, feeling hurt and humiliated! (I was so glad to have him there with me, at least!)
The second time was everytime I went to the doctor's office. I was too heavy to be weighed on their scales, even though it went up to at least 350lbs. The nurses would have to go into a storage closet, and litteraly drag out an enormous scale ment to weigh people who were in wheelchairs! And the only space they had available was in a hallway, where anybody walking by could witness the whole thing!
And third,...........my fiancee and I were gathering our laundry together to go to the laundromat. We like to keep our clothes separate sometimes. Going through his clothes, he picks up a large pink garment and says, "Why is your shirt in with my laundry?" and tosses it with my pile. Knowing my clothes, I knew it wasn't a shirt he picked up and tossed, it was my underwear!!!!! Was I really so big that he thought my underwear was a shirt???!!!!!
That was years ago. Praise the Lord that I have lost over 120lbs, (however it was unfortunately due to being sick) and just recently had a panniculectomy to remove my large hanging belly. I like the way my new body looks and am still hoping to lose more weight from smart food choices and walking.
I was just traveling down memory lane, and felt like sharing those experiences with you. Anyone else had any embarrasing experiences?

Do you see the glass as half empty or half full? I say, what difference does it make--I paid for a full glass,so either way I am getting jipped!!!
I'll bite--My most embarassing moment of my entire life was when I accopanied my sister to family court. She constantly has to go when she's nervous. Me, being sister and protector (I made an excellent shield from the abusing husband!)made the trips with her. Well it's a REALLY old building, never really "updated". I sat on the toilet and it broke off the bolts on the wall, shattering to pieces underneath me. After having knee surgery I cannot get up from a squatting position without assistance--the MALE sheriff deputy came running in to help me since my sister didn't move as fast as a sheriff hearing what sounded like an explosion inside a court building. At least he told me I wasn't the first and not likely to be the last until the building is rennovated!
Thank you for sharing!Anytime I would see a toliet that was hanging, I would be afraid of it breaking. Normally I would be so afraid, I would leave that stall & use the handicapped one, hoping it was reinforced. I've had many embarassing moments- needing seat belt extender for not only planes, but my husband's new car, having to ask my daughter to help me get dressed, because my stomach was in the way. But I think the most embarassing was when I was subbing for a very thin teacher, whose chair was wobbly- which I didn't realize, Of course, when I sat down, in front of the whole class, the chair broke and a couple of students came over. I immediately popped up and made some lame comment. But it was mucho embarassing!

My highest recorded weight was 349lbs @ 5'6"
Before having to have a wheelchair, going to Cedar Point and having to get off of rides, because I did not fit.
Asking for seatbelt extenders when flying.
I think my most embarrassing moments were when my then teenage sons had to take care of me. To do or go anywhere, they would have to push me in a wheelchair. My sons' took it all in stride, I guess thinking it was just normal life.
I've broken chairs and to this day, still test seats ~rolls eyes at self~
Having to drop out of life, because I could not hang in there and do what my friends were doing.
Falling down and not being able to get myself up, unless I rolled and crawled and prayed no one seen me.
My mother always belittling me, she still does, even now that I am of normal weight. I give up trying to please her or anyone else, I now live for myself.
There are many other embarrassing moments, however my mind is wanting to repress them at this time.
