Weight loss can be embarassing

Had to fly home the other day from Jakarta to Yogyakarta to be home with the family for Christmas (I live in Indonesia)

I was in Jakarta for a check up with my Dr and to see some business clients

I only had carry on luggage. We are fairly casual with clothing here - shorts, sandals and a nice T shirt is OK for general day to day activities when travelling short distances by plane

Got on the plane and found my seat - went to put my luggage in the overhead and as I reached up - my pants fell down

You know you have lost weight when that happens.

Of course there was some embarrassment from some of the more refined Muslim ladies - but the general mood from other passengers was a laugh and a helping hand to recover my falling luggage and my falling pants

Dont'cha just love lapbands???

That is too funny! I'm laughing *with* you. I think it's time to buy some new pants! Great NSV!

I was just banded on the 23rd of December. I laughed so loud that my husband asked me what was so funny. I can't wait for my pants to fall down now. Thanks for a great laugh, but I think you need to either wear a belt or go shopping. I vote for shopping, you'ver earned it my dear. B)

Great NSV! You have made my day with this story! Congrats on losing your pants!:lol:

Too cute bodyfixer, mine would fall off without a belt. Congrats!! keep up the good work. This made me laugh out loud for real.:D

HILARIOUS! I had mine fall off once, but luckily I was alone in my room at work, not in public. Feels good, though, doesn't it? Way to go!

Oh i'm so sorry, but am i'm laughing with you! See why our moms always told us to put clean undies on every day??? :P Great job on the weight loss!

Sad to say, my pants falling off is one of my goals! I've wanted it ever since I saw the WW commercial years ago! I keep my BIG pants to wear around the house just hoping they fall off! Sick or what!!!!!!!

I have even tried to roll my pants, but there is only so far you can roll them.
