    Hi Sillycat,

    next time something like this happens, the best is to smile and wave (nicely, not the finger) at them, that drives them really mad lol.

    That person was an idiot. Anyone who yells things at random strangers walking is usually a nut case. I know ita hard, but try to let this go.

    Wait...did she say you were fat or just that you needed to wear a shirt?

    I was also wondering this. It couldve been a modesty thing. Maybe she was just offended by the op wearing a sport bra out doors and meant nothing weight related.

    Yeah I mean, not that it's NICE to yell things at people...Just wondering if that is all she said.

    Bras are meant to be worn UNDER clothing. Even on someone very thin and fit, this is really not appropriate attire unless at the gym or actively on a run.

    While her comments were meant-spirited, it sounds like you know that you shouldn't be dressed that way in public, right?

    Lamesauce.

    Same here. I agree that its never okay to yell anything insulting at a stranger, but there are people who get really bent out of shape about modesty. So this lady couldve just been upset about the lack of a shirt and this whole thing isn't weight related at all.

    I always my beginning pick handy on my phone. Looking at yours, i would have pulled one up and showed them, then asked them if they are working on that that poor effing attitude that is making them ugly to other people

    So what you're saying is it's ok to wear a sports bra at a gym or outside running but not walking? Is that because no one will see you running by in your sports bra because you're running super fast? Or because no one will be paying attention to you at the gym because they have blinders on? I mean really? Seriously??! What is the difference?

    Essentially, I was wearing a sports bra because it's 95 degrees where I am at. It's very hot and it's the only real time I can get exercise in. Yes, I was on a public road, they pulled in the parking lot where I was walking and decided to insult me, after I walked up to her car, my husband said Mam, that wasn't called for and she said well she needs to wear a shirt because that's just "NASTY". I am normally actively on a run, the day this happened I decided to walk, I actually waffled between wearing a shirt or not. It was too hot and I didn't want the excess heat on me. I was minding my own business as I was going through the parking lot. I used to wear sports bra's all the time, I was thinner yes, but with my 30 pound weight loss that I've had, I felt relatively good about wearing it, I've been wearing it, I guess I just ran into someone who I offended by the way I look.

    From the sounds of it, you didn't offend her. She is just dumb.

    This is the offending look, my shorts are tied tight because I run with my phone on me and I don't want it to fall down, you can see how hot is was with a sports bra on, can you imagine a shirt too?

    I would in no uncertain terms tell her where to stuff her attitude and what to do with her big loud mouth. Wouldn't be the first time I let some noisy jerk have it right back lol.

    She's just dumb. Let yourself feel annoyed/pissed/sad for a while then try to move on. That's my method, anyway. :)

    Yes, she did have an older fellow with her, he looked to be in his 60's, I honestly couldn't tell you how old she was, my husband said she looked like a Meth head, she did look strung out and that's where I went with the insults, The guy driving went on in the store despite him seeing myself and my husband approaching, he looked at us and just left her there alone. I would honestly NEVER say something to someone who didn't start yelling stuff at me first.

    I was just wondering if it was her partner and she got a bit stupid about it. I always wonder why people waste their energy on being like that.

    It's all on her regardless, not you. She was probably in a frame of mind that anyone was going to cop it. Happened to be you this time. Brush it off. Move on.

    If it makes u feel any better I have a story lol. I was driving back from a baby shower. right hand lane. doing the speed limit. just being all normal. Suddenly a busted down hooptie pulls in behind me and this wild crazy looking woman starts honking at me. So uhhh whatever, I change lanes. She follows and continues. I change lanes again. She does it again. still honking. NO clue who this is. Didn't cut anyone off in traffic, nothing like that. random weirdo. Soooo I just keep driving straight to the police station. Soon as she catches sight of it she's off like a bat out of hell. I chilled in that area a few minutes then went back home. Still don't know wtf that weirdo's problem was.

    I didn't really call her one of those, I poked fun at her teeth instead, I was wrong for that, now mine are going to fall out. But you know how it is, once you get out of that type of situation you start replaying everything that you could have said if you had been fast on your feet, Mine would have been, "Do you have a ski mask? Cause that just nasty (your face)"... Of course, I could only spew cuss words, my husband however was very amicable, which surprises me since he's an officer, but he said that he didn't want to come and bail me out of jail. I'm sure that would have been very embarrassing for him, "what was she arrested for?" "assault" "why?" "because she called me fat" But for the record, I've never been to jail :)

    There are sports bras made as underwear and sports bras that are optionally outerwear. I trusted the OP to know the difference!!!!

    EDIT: as clearly she does!

    Hey, OP, I took the most unflattering angle of myself I could devise for my progress pics. :) I find them inspiring in an angering sort of way. LOL!
