I'm not sure if I'd consider this an NSV, but it has happened to me a few times now, so i thought I'd post it.

When we go to the mall or any store with doors, I have a hard time opening them. Usually I would just lean back or lean into the door and it would fly open.

Now when I try to open a door, I get stuck. Yesterday I tried to open the door at the mall, and I pushed and practically did a face slam right into it. My husband ended up pushing it open cause all I did was leave face print on it.

Then, at the pharmacy, I tried to pull the door open, and I don't know if it was the auction from inside or what, but I used my whole body and I'm leaning back trying to pull it open and nothing. This little old lady pushed it open from the other side. I was laughing after that!

So appearantly I have trouble with doors. I never realized how much I used my weight for that before. I would just lean & voila! Open sesame!

Anyone else have this problem? Lol!

1. Where are you going that doesn't have automatic doors? ...LOL!

and

2...Why is your husband not opening the door for you anyway?

Seriously though, I do understand your issue and have experienced it before...you are not alone!

Welcome to being a light weight...just get out the weights and work on your strength training.

Uh oh. I often open doors pushing with my butt when my hands are full. What am I going to do when I don't have a big butt? LOL.

LOL! YES! I used to "booty bump" my way through life. Now I am stopped cold!

And I still haven't gotten a real perspective on how wide my behind (no longer) is. The other day, I went to lean against the corner of the wall, kinda half on half off was what I was aiming for, during a conversation with co workers. I COMPLETELY missed! Fell on my butt right in front of them all! Guess I misjudged...
