Warning Labels in Plus-Sized Clothing?



Recommended Posts

Yep. Makes as much sense to me as the labels on cigarettes, alcohol. Perhaps next those who have to buy these clothes could be tracked and not allowed to eat anything of their own choosing because they are offensive to society and unable to kick their unhealthy habits. Hmm...:paranoid
The warning labels on cigarettes, alcohol and food are to stop you from doing something by warning you of the consequences.

The warning labels on clothes tells you that it is already too late to do anything.:faint:

Clothing for fat people are, of themselves, a warning against obesity; they don't need no stinkin' labels. I never realised before I got fat that I would be entering into the Land of Ugly Clothes. I think that one of the reasons that I got banded was so that I could wear natural fibres again.

wow what a way to make bigger people feel worse!!!! An intervention in your clothing?

Newsflash to clothing manufactuers...

WE KNOW WE ARE FAT!!!!! we don't need a blazing tag in our already high waisted taper leg disgusting make you look 50 pounds heavier jeans that we are forced to buy from you...

I am willing to bet they would start putting the tags in at like a size 12...

I push for them to do this... yes... as long as they put tags in the 00's saying

"Our jeans have concluded that your butt is nonexistant... doctors report that a nonexistant butt is a serious medical condition. Please consult a physican or the nearest McDonalds... included is a 10 dollar McDonalds Gift certificate...best used at one meal."

Yeah I would be in way more support of that to... or maybe they can start making skinny girl jeans ugly and claiming they had to use too litle fabric to make them pretty... maybe that would cure the true epidemic

Yeah, like all they have to do is sew one of those damn sequins onto the tag. Isn't that warning enough?

I think it's a great idea but the labels should read:

Warning: Although the size says 18 on this label - it's really a size 14. Buyer beware!

      Hi everyone! I’m brand new here. I just went through all my pre-op requirements per my insurance company and now everything has been submitted and I’m just waiting for final approval and my surgery date. I’ve been doing research, watching YouTube videos, TikTok’s, ect.. trying to prepare my mind and what to expect so I’ll be ready for the surgery. I was so sure and so set and so ready and excited. However, now that I’ve done everything & it’s almost here, I am sooooooo scared! I know why I want it bc I’ve tried everything and I just don’t feel like I can lose weight by myself. I’m tired of being overweight my entire life. I’m miserable, but I keep psyching myself out afraid of GERD bc I know how that can be and I don’t want to have to get a bypass after already gaining the courage to even get VSG. I’m scared of complications like I’mgoing to regret doing it and be depressed that I didn’t just be more disciplined and try again to lose the weight on my own even sitting here typing this knowing in my mind i just can’t and don’t possess the discipline. I’m also afraid I won’t be able to handle the restrictions of the sleeve. What do I eat? I don’t know how to eat healthy really and don’t enjoy healthy food. I don’t know how to do this! I feel so defeated!Someone tell me they felt anything similar to this or am I not ready? I thought I was. I am so tired of being sick and tired and so tired of myself and so tired of being stuck and stuck in this body and somebody different on the outside from what I feel inside. I just want to ball up and cry.

      The 14th was my day. I am home and recovery is going pretty smooth. They even let me walk out of the hospital. Picture of me in recovery curtesy of my boyfriend lol.
