Mortifying Moments

We've all had them.  Whether it be being caught in a lie about your weight at the doctors or being asked when the baby is due when you're not pregnant.  Whether you want to supply your embarrassing weight related moments to motivate others or if you simply want to bitch about what you went through- share it here! 

For me, I went into a restaurant with a friend of mine to catch a bite to eat.  A girl I had known and hadn't seen since two years ago was our waitress.  Rather then recieving the standard "Hello, what can I get you tonight?" I was greeted with the horrifying remark of "I hardly even recognize you! You have put on so much weight!" I didn't even know how to respond.  Not to mention I was so self conscious about my menu choice that night because I knew she would be judging what I eat.  Damn skinny bitch. 

Here's a couple...

Not being able to do up the seatbelt on a plane (I have to fly quite a bit for work) and ask for an extender while everyone around you gives you looks.  Along with that was not being able to be able to do up the safety bars on a rollercoaster.

Suggesting going on a helicopter ride to the bottom of the Grand Canyon with a boyfriend and then having to be weighed (in front of him) so they could "balance the load".

Having a lawn chair collapse on you in a store when trying it out (ok that one didn't happen to me but I saw it and felt mortified for the person it did happen to).

At my father's wake there was a slideshow of pictures that kept replaying for people who came in and out of the funeral home. It showed an old picture of my brother, Chris (who's considered the thin, goodlooking one). My mother said that was probably the heaviest she'd seen of Chris (in the picture, where he was still very thin. She was saying it in a joking tone, of course.)

So this tacky lady that I didn't even know, who was at the very least JUST as heavy as I was, turned to me and said "Yeah, you should give some of your weight to your brother". It was so embarressing.
