NSV - Peeing Like A Man

blogs/blog-0637797001360863961.jpgWell, this is embarrassing to admit, but for the past 2 years I've had to sit down to pee. At some point my gut and the fat pooch above my junk got too big and it was a real hassle (and messy) to use the urinals. So it was just easier and cleaner to sit on the toilet.

 

So it was a happy surprise when I realized yesterday that I could use the urinals again. My job requires a dress shirt.

 

I hated having to drop trou, tuck my shirt tale back in, and fight with my belt every time I went to the bathroom.

 

Now I can go back to hosing down the back of the urinal and destroying the cigarette butts at the bottom. :-P

 

P.S. They must think guys are pretty dumb around here. I saw a sign above the urinal that read, "Please don't eat the big white mint!"

    thanks for sharing...even though embarrassing I'm sure there are many out there who go through similar things. I had my own bathroom issues when I was extremely overweight...female issues. It feels awesome to go to the bathroom like a normal person.

    Yea I cant wait till cleaning up in the bathroom is a simple and quick process. That's the shame that led me to consider WLS. "this is taking way too long!"
