BloomingLotus 179 Posted September 24, 2014 I just ripped my pants. At work. My plus size dress pants could no longer contain my thighs. I don't think the rip is super noticeable because it's on the inner thigh, but I'm so embarrassed! This is further confirmation I've made the right decision. Feeling a ton of emotions right now and none of them good... Has anyone else had an eye-opening moment like this? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

old_rn 110 Posted September 24, 2014 Been there and done that. I ripped my pants stem to stern and had to tie 2 jackets together so I could get home. So embarrassing. But that won't happen again because I am on the road out this weight mess. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I posted my story a few weeks ago another forum about when you knew that it was time to do something about your weight! I was at work in my uniform????

Shell88 157 Posted September 27, 2014 Was getting on the tea cup ride with my daughter @ Dorney Park, and couldn't get the seat belt around me - the attendant asked me to get off if I couldn't put on the stupid belt on this kiddie ride. Had to call her father over to get on with her to avoid screaming toddler. Definitely dampened my mood for the rest of the day. More reason to get this done!!! Don't want her to feel Mommy can't do certain things with her, or doesn't have the energy, or feel embarrassed. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
BloomingLotus 179 Posted September 27, 2014 It stinks that we all have gone through these craptastic and embarrassing life moments, but it's great to know we are all here for the same reason and are making changes to improve our health. Time for some new pants! Maybe I'll get some shoes to help ease the pain of my traumatic experience Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Shell88 157 Posted September 27, 2014 I want the pedi that goes with the shoes!!! LOL Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
vickydp 20 Posted September 27, 2014 Don't give up. A week before my surgery I sat on an airplane where the seatbelt barely closed and where my thighs trickle under the arm rest. Poor guy next to me had to deal with it. It was at that moment when I knew there was no turning back. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
