Poll: My most embarrassing moment: WLS edition!
Well....
When I lost the bulk of my weight, I so enjoyed buying new clothes. Skirts, blouses, sundresses- everything was so much fun now. Except, I was spending so much money on clothes I skipped buying new shoes, even though they were all fairly loose.
Fast forward to a day when I felt I looked wonderful in a new outfit. I rushed outside to get something from my car before the next bell rang (I am a middle school teacher). My heel slipped off my foot, caught on the sidewalk, and I fell, spectacularly. It wasn't a graceful, little ladylike tumble to the knees.
It was a Superman dive across the sidewalk and into the grass. My face was covered in dirt, I had leaves in my mouth, my knees were bleeding, and my skirt was hiked up somewhere around my waist.
To top it off, a group of my 8th grade boys came around the corner just in time to witness it all.
Still burning with embarrassment even though it was two years ago.

About 3 weeks after surgery I went to Walmart to pick up some items and wa**** with a bout of diarrhea (I thought it had ended 3 days prior and it was safe to venture out of the house). I froze knowing if I moved it would squirt all over and my pants would be filled with crap and I would stink to high heavens. I "penguin" walked myself to the restroom across the store as fast as I could (really it was slow). Of course I was given odd looks and stares all the way as I chuckled to myself. I made it to the restroom and unloaded without incident in my pants thank God. When I was leaving the restroom and walking down the hall back to the store, a woman was headed to the restroom. I quickly picked up my speed and hid behind the wall at the end of the hall. I peeked around the corner and could hear her wailing and gagging because the restroom smelled so bad...LMAO
Nik,
I love your pouch gurgling story! (I ...... want...... kiss - that was sooooo cute!)
My story is rather graphic so beware.....
Hubby and I were having a good time in the bedroom. He decided to go, uh, downtown, if you know what I mean. Well, I was really getting into it, and I guess my rectal muscles must have relaxed because I farted right in hubby's face!!! God bless him, he didn't miss a beat and continued doing what he was doing.![](http://images.obesityhelp.com/_shared/images/smiley/msn/biggrin.gif)
I have many many many embarrassing fart stories, but I will spare you the details.

I've got another embarrassing story..... alas, another fart story.....
I was working at my office on a Saturday. No one in the office but me. So I felt it was safe to let it rip without embarrassment. I had just let go of a big stinky one, and I hear the office door opening..... it was Housekeeping coming to empty the garbage pails!!! I ran to the other side of the office and tried to hide behind one of the cubicles. It was too late. I hear one guy laughing and the other one sayjing "what's so funny?" and then they're both laughing. I KNOW they smelled it. When they came to where I was, I had no choice but to say "Hi". They were polite and didn't say anything, but I know they must have been thinking "dang, THAT came out of HER?????" It took me weeks to be able to look them in the face!
I keep a can of Febreeze air frenshener in my desk now.

Not directly WLS related but part of what led me up to having WLS:
Worked for local govt for a Democrat and the head dude over the county was a Republican and the unspoken rules are to not be seen in their company, right?
It was the holidays and every county office had their own holiday party, blah blah blah...the Republican dude's party was to start at 3 pm..or so I thought. I show up and am sniffing around the food (cause I was starvin and heck, I was a big girl who was all about any reason to eat****ep wondering why I'm the only one in there and his staff of ladies are still getting stuff together. So I'm hangin around, trying to not be seen by anyone who might tell my boss I was in this office....at one point, the dude looks at me and says "Here for some food?" and I'm like "heck yeah!" he says "we'll have it ready about 330 or so when the party starts.." WTF?
That would be all fine and dandy if I wasn't a fatty. It was the most embarrassing moment of my entire life. I WILL NEVER FORGET IT.
