Yup, was a combination of being too tall and too fat. Sucked. Oh well, I'll be back to ride in a few months .

NC- i was turned away from a coaster was well. Not a good feeling.

I also stayed away from Red Sox games because the seats were so small and felt bad for the person next to me.

I hear ya matt. I have mixed feelings on some of that stuff though. Yes, I was/am too fat and thats gonna leave me out of some things. The other part though, stop making everything for people that are 5'6" and tiny. Even at my goal weight a lot of things won't be comfortable cause I'm a big guy.

Posted this in my journal...it was so embarrassing...


The other week I was doing my lunges with about 15 pound dumb bells on either side. The day before I saw this skinny chick doing hers and she got way, way low. So me, forgetting I just started weight training and- um hello- I'm still 244-pounds make up my mind to follow suit. I get low cause I'm pretty flexible-but once I got there I made that scooby doo sound cause I realized I couldn't get back up. Yup, you guessed it...I tipped over-weights and all. LMBO

The saving grace is that the cardio machines and the smith machines face a different direction from where I was so most people didn't notice. The ones that did were like Miss, Miss you okay, you need help? I said yea I'm fine...got back up and finished my sets. lol

Confuscious says: nothing-he just rolls on the floor laughing with me.

My embarrassing moment was almost 2 decades ago - AND I STILL CRINGE! I cannot bring myself to fully relate it lest I ever actually run into any of you in person.

But I will tell you that it involved me being significantly more daring and bold than I am today...in a hot tub...without my glasses...thinking that the other female in the tub (a close friend) was nude (it was just a flesh-colored bathing suit) and me thinking WHY NOT? My boyfriend at the time just about fainted, immediately moved right in front of me so as to hide me from the eyes of the others in the tub (bless him for trying!) and when I found out that I was the only one who actually *ahem* unveiled, I WANTED TO DIE!!! omg, what a great lesson in why I never, ever take either my glasses OR my bathing suit off again when there are other people around! LOLOL

ABBAgirl takes the cake. We can end this thread now. lol. Bless your heart, I feel for you.

When we were in St. Maarten recently...everyone was going nude (I mean everyone). This year...I may fully intend to surprise myself...my fiance...and a few others around me (I'd like to think that I'll surprise and extrude some appreciation, lol). Maybe you made someone's day

I really want to contribute to this thread, but I don't know what "embarrassing" means.

Okay I have one.. it's not nearly as funny as some of the stories others have posted, but it was still very humiliating for me! Last year I went to a birthday party for my cousin's daughter. I hadn't seen a lot of my extended family in a couple of years and I've put on all my extra weight in that time. I thought I looked very nice that day, so my boyfriend and I went and had a pretty decent time. Then came the birthday cake... as they passed pieces around, I decided I didn't want any because it was chocolate and to be honest chocolate makes me sick (obviously I didn't gain weight from too much hersheys.. hehehe) and my uncle Phil yells out so that everyone can hear "Keli doesn't want any cake? What???!!!!" Yeah, I was mortified.... luckily everyone else was too focused on the kids to pay attention, but I heard it and my boyfriend heard it and that was 2 people too many.... people suck!

I have one

When I 1st joined my gym they give a free workout with a trainer. I was only 1/2 was through it and I started getting sick. I felt like I was going to puke and I felt faint. I told my trainer I had to stop. Well I sat down and put my head on a desk and they made me drink a protein shake. She said you havent worked out in a while have you. Well another trainer came over and started talking to my trainer. Said to the girl "are you on break" "I thought you had a training session" My trainer said I did.. but we had to stop. The other girl replied with a oh seriously and then ignored me and continued on with their conversation. I had to come back the next day to finish my session. It was embarrassing. I didn't want to at all but I did it.

I have also have had a drunk friend shake my belly fat because it was funny and giggly........

My kid will literally crawl up my shirt in order to waggle my upper-arm flab. Or belly flab. (I don't have a huge amount of loose skin, but some.) She thinks it's hilarious, and it drives me crazy!

Oh I've also had lots of embarrasing personal trainer moments. Like when I couldn't even lift 10 lb weights cause the previous exercises killed my arms.

I was only doing 30 minutes so they were pretty intense and I hadn't exercised or been active for a very, very long time.
