Was gonna NC but sod it.
Today had to be the most embarrassing day of my life. I’ve had three very loud mouthed children and this has topped any situation they’ve ever put me through. I’ve been eating a plant based diet for three weeks and I’ve lost 9lbs 
so today I went to treat myself to a pedicure.
The lady was very nice and sat me in one of those massaging chairs. Fancy. She was knelt in front of me scrubbing my feet when the massage chair rolled a pulse down my back. Before I knew it I let rip! Anyone who is plant based or vegan will know plant based farts reek 
OMG I felt awful. I wanted the chair to swallow me up. The lady was most polite and said ‘il just go get my other file’ and walked over to the shelf (probs to get away from my stench). I left a big tip when I paid lol

Today I farted in the beauticians face

Very embarrassing but you'll survive 
Just as a side note, it's probably your change in diet rather than your diet that's causing the bad smell.
I know everyone's different but it irrates me when people say vegan's fart more or smell worse.
I hardly ever fart unless I eat white bread & I'm a dairy free vegetarian.
Oh fuck!
I farted throughout a leg operation. Had no idea (I was under GA) and in recovery, the surgeon came in with the nurse to see how I was doing. Probably thinking I was still under, I heard their entire chat about my trombone symphony. 
The midwife who stitched me up after DC3’s birth 5 years ago MUST still be talking about the treat I lavished upon her as she toiled away, cross-stitching my nether regions. It was just awful. I just hit the poor woman with a non-stop wall of farts. I became like some fucking conveyor belt of farts. Awful.
Defiantly louder and with more force than before the change in diet.
I sat it out in silence until the end walkamileinmyshoes then gave a tip when I paid. I don’t know if should go back again. She might be ‘fully booked’ next time
Vegan farts are the worst, I say this as someone who ate lentil curry then went to a yoga class The whole room came to a standstill and the instructor ran to the window in horror to open it; it was like a scene from a Stephen King film 
Well done on your weight loss OP 👍
It's hilarious when it's someone else, you just want to die when it's you.
It's normal though! I am sure the poor doctors and nurses are very used to it! Pedicurist maybe less
Defiantly louder and with more force
Glad you're being defiant about it!

Post c-section fart - the longest, loudest fart ever!!! Everyone on the ward would’ve heard it. I was relieved, rather impressed and embarrassed in equal measures

My most embarrassing moment is when I had sepsis during labour and the very good looking registrar had to open me up and fish out my very smelly baby from my even smellier infected uterus. On my notes it says 1:53am live baby boy delivered, offensive smelling ++. That Dr was lovely though, he came to see me 2 days later, apologised for doing the c-section when I wanted a vbac and went over to nicu to see how ds was as well.
I trumped in the hairdresser's chair then put myself through the embarrassment of trying to recreate the sound with my foot, then the chair until I finally gave up 
Argh vegetarian plus general anaesthetic is not a good combination as my local hospital learned the hard way
