I don't know if this thread has been done before, but I would love to hear that I'm not the only one to experience something extremely embarrassing because of my weight.
1. Having to get off the roller coaster at an amusement parl in front of easily a hundred people or more, because the bar wouldn't click over my fat legs. And I saved myself the embarrassment at the next ride that wouldn't click over my chest by saying I was too scared, and getting off.
2. At a friends house one day, her dad and step mom were on her deck having a smoke, so we went out to join them. She went out first, and as soon as I had both my feet out the door, the whole side I was standing on collapsed to the ground, and I ended up with my *** on the floor inside the door, where my feet originally were. Funniest part was that her dad fell through his material folding chair in the process of the crash, so he was with his *** stuck in the chair.. They tried to make me feel better by telling me that the deck's wood had rotted, but I still knew it wouldn't have happened if I didn't weight 300 something lbs.
YOUR TURN!

My grandfather measuring my butt with a yard stick as I am laying on the floor watching TV and proclaiming like Jesus was coming back "Yep, its definitely wider than when you arrived."
Uh yeah, my grandmother could have killed him because it was the pot calling the kettle black. Aside from the fact that he shouldn't have done it in the first place.
Not sure if this is really embaressing..however....my director's stepson was visiting from out of province....and he came into the preschool for the day..we were outside catching a LOT of daddy longed legs (bugs) and putting them in a jar. I mentioned to him (opportunity to teach) that some were really long and some short..perhaps some boy and girl bugs...and he exclaimed.." well maybe if we keep them in long enough they'll have a baby just like you right?!" I laughed...and asked "but why would you think that?" and he said....."well you know......you have a big belly like you're having a baby"..so then i went on to explain that JUST because someone has a 'big belly' it doesn't mean they're having a baby. Anyways I didn't take it seriously but my director was mortified!
Roller coaster thing with me at Universal. That was so embarrising, I wanted to stay in the hotel room the rest of the vacation.
I was at an agility trial working in the ring, and there are lots of people watching. I went to get up from one of the plastic chairs and it was stuck to me.
Um, in high school every one was changing out of their band uniforms, I had on biker shorts underneath and someone saw me and yelled, "THUNDER THIGHS"
the worst part? it was a guy!
1. Having to get out of the Cyclone roller coaster at Coney Island in NY because the bar couldn't fasten.
2. Many years ago, I went on an overnight high school camping trip to a lake where all we had were outhouses. It was winter and the door could only open so far...I got in but somehow couldn't get out. The other students had to dig me out!
Well this isn't exactly an embarassing weight story, but I always felt fat in high school -- which definitely made the experience feel worse at the time.
At my prom, I went up to the bathroom. The place we held it was this beautiful old hotel with a wide, sweeping staircase. Anyway, as I came down the stairs EVERYONE seemed to be watching me, and as I crossed the room I sort of did a sexy saunter, feeling really gorgeous in my dress -- until I got to by best friend Abigail -- who reached out and untucked my "gorgeous" dress from where it was caught up in the back waistband of my pantyhose. I had crossed that room with my butt hanging out...oh, and NO panties on...because I hadn't wanted a "line" to show under the material of my dress...ooops.
It was icy and cold and I had to take the garbage out the back door and down some rickety old stairs at work. I took one look at those stairs and thought they looked dangerous- but I had a job to do. I took one step onto the stairs, they broke underneath me and i fell down the entire flight on my butt. It was terrible and painful and sometimes my tailbone still gives me trouble about 10 years later.
Oh a more recent one- not only am I fat but I'm also short! One day I was getting onto the bus and the step was apparently too high, I fell going up into it and my pants were loose and I'm pretty sure I mooned like 4 people waiting behind me. oops!
Oooh I love this!
One time around my highest weight I was sitting on this old poorly made concrete bench thing outside a bar in Jamaica, and this fat guy sat down beside me and it collapsed. Lmao. Embarrasing for the both of us. Thank God there was only a few people around.

Sadly, I was 13.
What a p***k. A*****e. P***k. A*****e. Can't decide which is better.
I have a gaining weight story... I bought a few bathing suits when I was near my goal weight, then didn't do any swimming for about a year. I was going to a conference and figured I might want to swim at the hotel pool, so I just threw a cute 2-piece into my suitcase without trying it on.
Well, I get to the hotel and I plan to go swimming with my advisor... and the bathing suit *barely* covers my boobs. I had probably gained 10-15 pounds or so, and it didn't help that it was an especially *busty* time of month. I figured I'd just stay underwater a lot. I mean, super models wear bathing suits with their breasts half-exposed all the time, right?
At one point I came up out of the water too quickly and flashed anyone who was looking. My advisor was facing away, so she didn't see... but I can't say the same for the lifeguard and his buddy from the fitness center who was standing there chatting with him. I heard them laughing as I left. That was the only time I swam there.
