Report it to hr as harassment

That's a bit of a stretch from "hinting at" to harassment, especially if OP and her manager have an otherwise good relationship per her post.

It depends on where you live and/or work. We have to attend 'sensitivity training' yearly at my job and they tell us that mentioning someone's weight at all, in a positive, neutral or negative way can be considered harassment. Actually even telling then they are pretty can be harassment. Any mention of a person's appearance can be harassment. People still do it, though.

Imho this sort of thing is EVERYTHING wrong with society today.

I'm curious to know exactly what was said. It's hard to know how to respond without a bit more info, tbh.

Yeah, that's the thing... I honestly forgot what she said to be honest. I know I replied once that I'm very happy with my weight and would not want to lose anything. Thus while I forgot what exactly she said, the fact that she said it really annoys me and makes me very insecure.

She "hinted" and you don't remember what she said but you are feeling insecure about it? I think you need to get over it.

I never forget if a person upsets me....

That must be a difficult way to live. Miserable in fact.

I'd go with a dead eyed stare and say something along of the lines of "and that's work related, how?"
