You may have seen me talk about the app AllGo, www.CanWeAllGo.com here on my blog and on my Facebook page. AllGo is an app for people of size – sort of like a YELP for rad fatties.
This is from The New York Times Article Link Here:
“Rebecca Alexander’s worst experience dining while large happened just after she nailed a promotion at a nonprofit organization.
She took her staff, and her new boss, to lunch at a promising downtown restaurant in Portland, Ore., where she lives. As the hostess led the group to a booth, Ms. Alexander, a 31-year-old who wears a size 30, knew in an instant there was no way she was going to squeeze into it.
“I remember having this out-of-body experience,” she said. “I watched myself sit down and try to get in even though I knew the space was too small, because I so needed it to fit.” Defeated, she asked for a table. The hostess told her there would be a half-hour wait.
“The cherry on top was that I got to be the reason we had to stand around for 30 minutes,” she said.
Going out to eat or to a theatre is SO anxiety ridden when you a person of size! Be sure to read the ALL of the article and be sure to download the app, too!
