r/FatPeopleStories - Woman 'ACCIDENTALLY' Flashed Herself...

what's up guys welcome to daily dose of reddit this is your host zach in today's subreddit is our slash fat people stories all right this story's called fat deteriorates my co-worker when i was 16 i had a co-worker michael that was 20. or michaela there when i met michaela in the late spring she was a little chubby but was in the process of losing weight she was down about 30 pounds at the time so i congratulated her and forgot about it then the fall semester started for michaela which included a gender studies class now i don't know about most of these classes but hers included a section about fat phobia this section taught that it was healthier to carry extra weight because it helped fight off diseases or something i don't remember exactly but this sounds right it made no mention that fat causes several other health problems michaela liked to constantly talk about that class to annoy me i'm not a family femalist feminist i'm not a feminist which scandalized her and began to make judgments about weight and health i'm a u.s size zero and our other co-worker was a u.s size four michaela would tell me that i was too skinny and the other co-worker that she needed to lose weight she was about a size eight when i met her so then due to a family emergency and an injury i didn't work with michaela for about six weeks when i finally came back to work someone shouted across the room at me i didn't even recognize michaela because she was so fat it looked like she was a size 14 or 16 now and as she got bigger she got lazier and crankier and would stir up drama now keep in mind we had really incompetent upper level management here which is probably the only reason she lasted so long we worked at an ice cream parlor as team leaders and every bad review we got could be traced back to a night where she was working there was one incident where she said that she forgot to put away a couple of rags would the person opening take care of that for her the person opening found that she had not done anything to close besides do the dishes and count the money sweep mop wipe stuff down turn off display lights clean bathrooms etc he found three hours of netflix watched on the store laptop that were only used to log in sales most people would be fired after that but like i said management was incompetent so she gets a second chance no demotion no nothing michaela had a bad habit of not cleaning out the grease traps on the grill in the back we served some food too and finally one day the freaking grill catches on fire luckily no one was hurt and the grill was ruined the owners were out about five hundred dollars and michaela still wasn't fired the final straw was when she had the gall to ask for a promotion because she thought that the assistant manager brenda who she had a long rivalry with couldn't handle it the manager dean finally grew a pair and called a meeting with michaela and brenda where he outlined in front of them everything michaela had done for as long as she had worked there including but not limited to the stories i've shared i've been told that michaela kept her mouth shut throughout the whole meeting a monumental event she turned in her two weeks notice the next day but dear reader that is not the end when we applied to other jobs she put down dean as a reference without asking him i was working with him the day one of her prospective employers called him and he said michaela was lazy entitled and unprofessional it was glorious oh and i just found her instagram she's still fat yikes man ah i feel like maybe deep down she was just really sick of trying to lose weight and um it's just the whole fat acceptance thing kind of got in her head and was like hey this is a comfortable logic let's live with this ah cool thing is though uh interesting thing not cool necessarily no it's pretty cool back like a long time ago being fat was a good thing because it meant like you were rich enough to to afford enough food to get fat uh and fat was a very vital uh survival tool because that's where all your excess calories and nutrition is stored in your fat that's like the whole point of it and to keep you warm i guess so ironically it saved a hell of a lot more lives back then than it killed but now it's killing everyone alright this story's called ham planets on a mobility scooter almost ran me down hello again dear readers i'm back again with yet another story but this time i'm venturing into a sub i don't often cover fat people i hope you enjoy oh no fat people i hope you enjoy i'm disabled and in a wheelchair and use a power chair to wreak havoc around town but on this one such occasion it was not me doing the reeking enter lady pugsley oh god my uncle's ex-girlfriend aunt amy i called her on amy i mean we weren't elated but she was really pretty and i used to call her my girlfriend when i was a little kid because i guess i had a crush on her but anyway her parents had a dog named pugsley and he was a pug and he farted all the time he was so stinky but he was sweet this happened about four years ago when i was downtown shopping i'd finished in one mall and wanted to go to the other mall across the street so i got to the lights pressed the button and proceeded to wait for the pedestrian light to turn green i was on the far left of the pedestrian crossing closest to the entrance of the mall i just exited when i spotted a woman on a mobility scooter exiting the other mall across the street this woman was in her mobility scooter that was at least two sizes too small for her as i could see her lady lumps hanging about 12 inches either side of her seat with her swollen feet sitting precariously to the outside of the footrest he would think that when she saw me she'd do the sensible thing and wait on her side closer to the mall she just exited so she'd be far enough away from me to avoid collision but no instead of waiting at the pedestrian crossing like everyone else she ignored the red light the traffic and inadvertently me without looking where she was going or caring about anyone but herself she crossed the road in full speed and seemed to be coming in my direction i should mention that the power chair i had back then was not as responsive as the one i have now so i struggled to reverse out of her way the pedestrian light was still red at this point and as she got closer i started frantically moving my chair out of her way and picturing how bad the collision was going to be as i was certain i wasn't going to have enough time to move before she got to me as she was mere inches from hitting me she stopped looked up at me and gave me the foulest look as if i was the one about to hit her i could tell that she wasn't going to go around me so i backed up and let her pass in retrospect i wish i'd said something snarky to her in retaliation for almost clocking me but i doubt that she'd think any different if i had i see her from time to time around town and i have a few other stories about her and her antics which i'll be sure to post on the future or in the future thanks for reading ah ham planets they think the world revolves around them well i'm sorry the the freaking geocentric model of the universe hasn't been widely accepted since like the 16th century so go back like a 500 years i'm sure you'd be a marvel not really they had big people back then too alright this story is called were you ever the fat kid how did it affect your self-image growing up hi i would just like to thank you first for reading this late night inner thoughts dump also not sure if this is important but i'm 24 female i'm not sure why i'm writing all this but i just wanted to vomit the words out of my head and chest pun not intended where to begin i've been the chubby one for all my life growing up friends relatives and strangers always let me know in some way or another that i carried a few extra pounds i was always a good 20 to 30 pounds heavier than all my peers even in kindergarten by the first grade i was already 110 115 pounds while most of my friends probably barely hit 80. my two sisters were also skinny so i felt even more of an anomaly in the fifth grade my family moved and so i changed schools this is when i really began to notice how others perceived me based on my size in my old town even though i was chubby i still had a lot of friends and a healthy social life because we had all grown up together since kindergarten so i never equated my looks and size to my worth as a person however starting school in the new town i began to notice how others would look at me i also had hit my highest weight of around 160 pounds at five foot one and had a snaggletooth a real charmer i was never bullied thankfully but i was sort of just ignored the popular girls weren't necessarily mean to me but they didn't give me more than a glance i was never included in group activities during recess and i spent the first few days alone just kicking wood chips and hoping recess would end when teachers told us to separate into groups for group activities i was always left behind and forgotten and so always just paired with that one special ed kidding class i hated recess ironically because i felt the most isolated and outcast my peers silently let me know that i wasn't worthy nobody really went out of their way to welcome me or try to get to know me of course my thinner sisters didn't have any trouble making new friends my older one was already invited to the popular group even now when i think about my first few years in the new school i shudder from the old memories of anxiety i experienced depression for the first time and i remember just sitting by myself in the living room in the dark and crying i also experienced intense uh suicidal thoughts for the first time my dad bought me a camera for christmas that year and i remember taking photos by myself pretending to be posing with a group of friends terribly sad and cringy i know my mom prayed for me every night to be able to find new friends i cried from embarrassment and feeling like the ultimate loser long story short i ended up losing weight to gain back confidence it worked as i majorly lost weight but i would have an everlasting battle with my body fast forward to today i am battling bulimia eight plus years that's why she said pun not intended oh that's dark and want to quit okay but i'm ashamed to admit that a bigger part of me knows i don't want to slash can't there are days where i feel good about myself but also many days where i have a mental breakdown and have the urge to take a knife and just slice the extra fat off even though i am at a normal weight now i will always carry the fat kid mentality and always experience anxiety when meeting new people afraid that they might be judging my body and label me a loser sorry this was all so long haha there's so much more i could talk about and include but i don't want to make this a novel i would like to genuinely know did you have similar experiences how did it affect your self-worth damn op uh have you gone to therapy or something because like um while i'm no i'm not knowledgeable at all really regarding this but i don't know it sounds like you've got some image issues and should probably get them talked about in a professional context however thank you for sharing and congratulations on you know being at a healthier weight but you gotta i don't know someone might get offended by giving advice so just gonna say what i've said we're here for uop spiritually speaking all right this story's called confessions of a farmer fat fish i'm not proud of it but i once catfished a guy online at the start of this year i was quite slim however thanks to the pandemic and my own gluttony i ballooned significantly and gained 20 pounds bear in mind that i am short so this weight gain drastically changed my appearance i went from being lithe slender and delicate to being bloated awkward and repulsive my profile picture was two years old and was of me in high heels no less at my lowest weight when i was 16. this guy and i were set up by a mutual friend so he messaged me over social media first we talked for a few months everything seemed to be going well etc we didn't video chat for a while so he thought that i was a tiny slip of a thing we got to know each other he was intelligent and funny and i guess i came across as a sociable smart perfectionist who had her life together my butt fell off because i left too hard vibrations caused severing ah the universe is falling apart at its core i laughed too hard okay eventually the time came and we video chatted i tried to starve beforehand but it didn't work and i spent the previous day binging i was a bloated mess and i only looked worse because i wore a crop top and shorts that were too small for me i can laugh about it now but for the longest time i was extremely embarrassed the poor dude hopped on the video call and was visibly shocked to see the fat mess on the other end of the line i was noticeably jittery and awkward because i knew that i had been duplicitous toward him i'll give him credit he stayed on the line for several hours and kept up a decent conversation but he was visibly turned off and i get it he was expecting an articulate hard-working quirky thin girl i came across as stupid lazy indulgent we didn't talk after that i don't like uh yikes hey at least you learned from it just be more honest like with how you present yourself and issues like these shouldn't arise i mean they they still might they still might but maybe not as common but op if it's any consolation how you wrote this soup's cute just keep it up man alright this story's called should i tell my friend that her fitness routines aren't her i have this friend who has always been heavier she's about five foot four and if i had to guess over 200 pounds for about a year she's been trying to lose weight but it's not really working i've given her advice on how to lose weight and keep it off since i lost 40 pounds three years ago and have managed to keep that weight off despite my advice she still weighs roughly the same but probably 5 pounds less i recently went hiking with her which she does once to twice a week these are easy moderate 2-3 mile hikes which i am proud she's doing afterwards she asked if we could grab lunch which i agreed to i then saw the problem she still eats large portions of unhealthy food i made the assumption that she also started watching what she ate but it turns out she just implemented more of a fitness routine i know she wants to lose weight and i've told her how to and that diet is 80 percent of weight loss she still struggles but i don't want to be the one to constantly tell her that she's wrong and that what she's doing is not helping our other friends have noticed as well that she still eats a lot of takeout and have told me that she posts about it on snapchat and instagram i honestly didn't notice since i disabled my social media once i started grad school about a year ago should i try to talk to her about it again or should i have someone else mention it edits hello everyone thanks for the advice just to clarify a few things she asked me for weight loss advice roughly a year ago and i haven't really brought up the topic unless she mentions it i think everyone is right in that i should lead by example and not mention anything unless she asks she has commented on my portion sizes and food choices but i will indulge every once in a while with my friends because everything in moderation diet and her personal food choices is a topic she doesn't bring up the only thing she brings up around me is fitness routines i encourage her and mention how much more stamina and endurance she has gained she no longer needs to take as many breaks on hikes thanks again hey man dude it's sick that you're even trying to help her um but you know with a lot of people it's not like flipping a switch it's like subtle changes to their lifestyle um because it's really just changing your baseline changing what your body wants to do automatically and that is not that's a lot easier said than done essentially alright this story's called accidentally flashed during high school i worked at this badly run ice cream park one day i was working the front when a very large woman about five foot two 350 pounds comes in and sits at the counter wearing what looked like a moo moo tube top combo thank loose strapless and flowy since the person who i worked with that shift always refused to help me with customers thanks a lot claire i told this woman i would be with her in a second and helped whoever i had been helping first after i checked them out i go back to her and ask her how can i help you she's still looking at the flavors written on the mirror behind me we had a really dumb system and takes her elbows down from the counter where she had been propping up her chin in her hands and her freaking and her freaking boob falls out and she didn't even notice i was 16 i kind of awkwardly stutter at her like something like uh ex excuse me your shirt and she apologized and fixed her clothes and ordered an elaborate sunday like nothing had happened i had to run all around the store to make that thing and come back to say anything else and i swear her boobs fell out at least three more times she could usually tell when it happened these times though that was the grossest thing that ever happened to me at that job okay hey man accidental accidental boobage isn't that gross all right i'm sorry and if that's the grossest thing you had to deal with it can't be that bad i know i know grosseck but hey it could have been worse i'm joking i'm joking don't be insensitive zack you're so insensitive i know don't forget to like subscribe and hit that bell to never miss an episode [Music]
