Ladies....I just have to say how excited I am to check this thread everyday....it's so nice to read about other peoples issues/concerns and to be able to completely relate.....this is such a comfort at the end of my day!!! You girls are the best!!


PS--- How long is 5K??? Since so many people are talking about running it?



A 5K is 3.1 miles long! Here is a great site for new runners or people who not run at all and want a training program to build up to a 5K:

Couch to 5K Program!!

Just do it girls!! If I can do it... anyone can do it!

I have a question...has anyone been treated umm differently because of their weight by sales people?

I am trying to figure out if I am being ignored and mistreated because I am heavy or if it is because I look very young or because I do not dress very well....maybe all of the above....

I don't know...but I am becoming very self conscious and depressed.

Everytime I go into a store there is a gorgeous bride being fawned over and I have to wait thirty minutes or more for someone to give me their time...they make eye contact and I walk over and they turn their backs or they say derogatory comments such as : 'Whose wedding is it.?' with a tone that insinuates it couldn't possibly be mine. I have my ring on hello!

Today I walked in and they turned their back on me. A nice old man I think worked there finally came over to me when he saw them ignoring me...two women with the very beautiful bride...I think she was a bride..she could have been there for the prom; I am not sure her mom was there....So anyway he comes over and I ask to see a catalogue to look at favors..since there are boxes blocking everything and he asks the woman and she is like the store IS the catalog. really nasty. He says but we could show her the catalog too. And she repeats even nastier she can (could) look around the store. I was walking out and the poor man was still talking about the catalog! I feel bad for not thanking him, but I was holding back tears at 31 years old for goodness sakes!

I think I am becoming eeyore. Maybe my tail was missing or something. All I know is I am internet shopping from now on.


I was just wondering if it is just me.....is it the heaviness (which will not come off by June)
or the youthful look or the fact that I wear jeans everywhere? Or maybe the fact that I am becoming depressed?

Sorry this is so long....



As pooh would say Oh bother!! Yes, unfortunately this does happen. I for one wouldn't shop there anymore. If they don't want my money there's always someone else who will. I always remember Pretty Woman when this happens. No one would dare to help her, but when she looked like a million bucks they were up her a$$. It's their loss.
