Quoted: We found one^^^ I fit just fine. So do all of the other normal, healthy sized people. However, I don't fit when some fat ass takes all of their seat and 1/2 of mine. View Quote I have to contort myself in all manner of fucked up ways to fit into a non-first class airline seat and constantly shift my position so a different part of my back starts hurting to give the one that was hurting a break. Flights over 30 minutes are miserable. My brother is 6'5 285(kinda fat, not ARFCOM hero 285 but not "so fat he is a weird shape") and flights are absolute torture for him. |

She's built like an NFL player.
I'm sorry but flying fucking sucks as it is. I don't need an NFL linebacker sitting next to me. This bitch should have bought two seats. |

Irrespective of gender, nobody wants to have to sit next to some morbidly obese person who intrudes into the minuscule amount of sitting space we're given on a plane. If you spill over into the seat next to you maybe you should have to buy two seats? View Quote |

Someone please explain to me how a pregnancy adds over 30lbs to a woman. My wife's had 2 kids and lost the baby weight. There are lazy women that use excuses to be fat asses. And your ass ain't big boned cartman, X-rays prove it.

Is purchasing two seats even an option? Can a single person purchase two adjacent? I have purchased adjacent seats for myself and my daughter, who then did not go on the flight because of a change of plans, and the airline put someone on standby into her seat since she never checked in.....
just wondering if the seemingly logical "buy two seats" plan is valid (but also too lazy to go to an airline website and search....) |

Quoted: Why? I embrace the ham planet next to me on planes. I just cuddle up and treat the flab spilling into my seat like a pillow. If it’s in my seat space that I paid for, it’s my property. And I like to snuggle with my property. View Quote |

Land whale upset. A woman took to social media with an open letter addressed to a man who allegedly fat-shamed her on a flight from Orlando, to Detroit, last week. “You referred to me as a ‘2-ton woman.’ You told your friend soon as I boarded and you saw me that it was ‘not good.’ When I confronted you saying ‘I am not two tons but I did just have a baby,’ you sighed and got up to use the bathroom then quietly asked the flight attendant for a different seat.” View Quote rant/ crap like this is why i either fly first/business or don't go(or drive). To many people now are inconsiderate assholes. At least in F I have more room to work with and can drink enough to ignore the person next to me. sad how selfish this world has gotten, even worse that the left celebrates a fat ass making the people sitting next to them uncomfortable. (and tries to arock them if they dare call out the land whale/stinky/service dog bull mastiff asshat. ) /rant |

View Quote Internationally it can vary. (I've seen First/business at 3-4-5-6K and coach at 1,000. In that case then obviously buying two would be cheaper) *I do believe you'd have to call the airline, I'm not sure it can be done online. |

Meh, she's not that big. He looks as big. At least she looks like she's showered. I've sat next to waaay bigger people that also smell like cheese

Flying out of San Angelo, TX I too happened to be seated right next to a land whale of a man. Dude had zero shame in it too as he waddled down the isle.. LATE

And WHY did this have to play out on social media?! "Uh oh, here comes two tons of fun." "Not quite two tons, but thanks for noticing. What's the carrying capacity of your belt, sir? You look to be exceeding it's limits." When did we forget how to trade insults, jibe each other, or just simply interact? FFS. View Quote |

She's not that big in the one picture I've seen. Complaining guy is no picture of health and fitness himself. I've seen and sat next to bigger. One of the flight attendants on my last trip was a cute blonde but surprisingly thick for the job.

I think my wife gained over 30, but our first daughter was 10 of that. Part of it is that a woman's body hold onto shit so they can breastfeed (and people's bodies are still adapted to act like you might not eat tomorrow). If a chick isn't breastfeeding and is eating your typical shit diet, that weight is going up and not going anywhere. Since both our daughters had lip tie issues, my wife just starts keto now after they're born and the weight slides off. But most of the women we know that breastfeed the weight comes off that way.

But most of the women we know that breastfeed the weight comes off that way. But they all eat healthy too. My wife on the the first one gained 35ish pounds, healthy fat baby, and she lost the extra 20 or so pounds with little effort. Second kid, she did pretty much everything the same (if anything she was more sick through it, puking more often) and put on a little more weight, same size kid, but the breast feeding weight didn't go off as fast, and she is right now working on the last of it (she got complacent about it until we bought a new scale) My best guess is that she snacked a little more with the second kid, but she was also in her 30s at that point too, so her hormone profile was like a bit different also. |
