Waiting for the bus tonight, some little kid and his mate started calling me 'fatty' and throwing firecrackers at me and everyone else at the bus stop. AWESOME.

THEN I'm walking down the road and a little camp prick says to his mates "Oh my GOD! I thought that was an earthquake, but it was just that girl walking past".

I mean... really?

Ironically, on the day I lost more weight that I ever have before, I was shouted down by two total tools in the space of 20 minutes. Crazy.

    I won't say it, but I'll refer to a song by Godsmack called "I f-ing hate you!!" Not a nice song, but great to get frustrations like this out!!!

    Wow, that's really terrible. I remember a saying my friend used to say " I may be fat, but I can lose weight and you'll always be ugly" I thought it was so funny at the time.
  • Ick!! What is wrong with people?! I'm so sorry you had to deal with that awful behavior. I see on your ticker you've lost over 30lbs! That's an amazing victory!! Keep the good work (and your head) up. :)

    Just think, while you are capable of losing the extra weight and being more beautiful, they have no chance of getting a brain. I think you win hands down no matter what. :flowerforyou:

    People really can be cruel. I have been called Princess Fiona before, and likened to a bouncy castle. I don't have the energy to waste getting upset by idiots like that!
  • O.M.G. Parents need to teach their kids some manners.

    There was a boy who use to tease me saying that my clothes needed to be made by tent makers. Later on in years I became best friends with this boy's sister. She and I were relaxing in her dad's hot tub in our swimsuits and he comes in to join us (for only God knows what reason). He must have forgotten that he use to tease me and says, "Wow. You have amazing legs". To which I replied, "Thanks. It's nice that I've lost over 100 lbs and not having to have tent makers fashion me clothes anymore". He apologized for being a jerk all those years ago.
  • That's too bad. I was commenting to my bro yesterday about how I struggled through childhood with negative feelings, brought on by mean people and mental illness, and now I just hate people, I honestly do. I empathize and I do not say mean things to people, but to my core I truely hate people. That's no good and does not make me proud. I imagine it would be much better to have had a normal childhood, a happy one, and to not feel so angry and hateful all the time. Oh well, I keep to myself. And I do love my family.

    That's horrible...sorry you had to go thru that.

    I had gained 40 pounds, due to medication and poor eating/excercise habits, in one year. I went from being cute and curvy, to being a circle shape.
    My husband's ex-wife met us to get their daughter. During the exchange, she said they were going to the park and was going to do some kind of ride. She then went on to explain that there was a 150 lb weight limit and she was way under that. She just happened to give me a very smug and *kitten* eating smile. I wanted to kick her in the face. But me being the better person I didn't react to that comment.

    After all, you can loose weight, but you can't loose ugly!

    One time this dude at work pulled me into an office and started to go off on me about something work related...he was mad because 4-5 people called him out on a lie and he thought it was just me. So in the midst of his rant he throws a line in "i know youre as big as 4 people but it was just you...blah blah" and I totally didn't get it at first. then he took his finger and pointed me up and down making a big circle in front of my stomach and says again "I KNOW YOURE AS BIG AS 4 PEOPLE, BUT IT WAS JUST YOU THAT SAID IT"

    I'm like, really??? Just come out and tell me you think I'm fat...don't harrass me at work with your "finger" in my face implying I'm fat. With it being at work, I of course walked out and told him he was unprofessional. If had been outside of work, he'd be black and blue...=) haha!

    I always wonder what they are "Hiding or Trying to Hide" because that is a sign of Insecurity or Ignorance. So I just look at them, even catch My self staring...and they usually look away or down because they know I have "Gottem", I know their secret...They have LOW SELF ESTEEM and are trying to DUMP on someone else. The thing about someone with Low Self Esteem is that THEY Do NOT Understand that Everyone Else IS NOT Like Them.

    I also KNOW something else, that they do not get>>>I have a Great Face (I'm Pretty) and well proportioned, with a Great Personality, Smart and Kind...I know that a person can lose weight, but UGLY (facially and personality-wise) is usually forever. (Weight is Superficial, UGLY is to the BONE!) Frankly, It always amazes Me how UGLY people can think just because they are slim/skinny dump on others who may be obese...Clearly they know they have problems (Low Self Esteem). SOOOO, keep a song in YOUR HEAD when you come across these types of people, YOU have discovered their "Secrets" and YOU "Got Them." In the USA we say " I peeped your hold card!"

    I hate reading about these kind of things, I wish people would grow up! I had similar experiences, many times throughout my life, I finally use it to my advantage. http://www.myfitnesspal.com/blog/BrunetteWife/view/wear-you-weight-in-the-beginning-31258

    Use it as fuel. :heart:

    That is so incredible!

    You guys are all so lovely! I didn't really start this thread for sympathy. I was more pissed off at the irony of it happening on today. This thread has made me feel good though. You're all totally right, you can't lose ugly.

    Arrrrgh, this made me so f***ing angry! Why are some people so horrible?

    I'm so sorry this happened to you. You are gorgeous and you seem like a lovely, cool and intelligent person, so you have a HELL of a lot more going for you than they ever will. I know it's easy to say "oh just ignore them, they're not worth it", but it doesn't stop comments like that being incredibly hurtful. It only happened to me once (some evil little chavs drove past, wound the window down and shouted "fatty" at me) and I cried :( Since then I've lost 30 pounds though, and I do find the memory serves as motivation when I feel like giving up.

    You are doing amazingly - you're getting closer to your goal every day. Just keep that in mind and keep on going! Xxx

    I later blogged about my WYW experiences, if you care to read them.

    Just keep your head held high. Piss on those who don't understand common sense, common courtesy, and respect.

    I use to get called "fatty Patty" when I was young. I always knew that there was something wrong with those kids and not me but it didn't keep it from hurting my feelings. I would ignore them and be nice until it eventually stopped. I didn't let those people change the sweet, smart loving girl I knew I was. This is what I would want to say now but probably wouldn't:

    How embarrassing for you that you have no manners & hate yourself so much that you would go so far as to try and insult me in public to make yourself feel superior to me. PahLease! You are so transparent. You know nothing about me but I know so much about you... how unhappy you are, how insecure you are, how you don't know what it feels like to be loved. You are sad & rude and I could care less what you think of me. PISS OFF and may I suggest spending your time thinking more about how you can make YOURSELF suck less.

    Don't let these effers get you down. You are doing great and this should be a positive day for you. Stay focused and keep on truckin!

    AND PS: I was really proud of you today for getting your shred in even though you had to do it right before bad mitten cause you woke up late. SEE one more point on the awesome scale for you!

    Jackwagons! Douches!!!

    You are gorgeous! I love that profile pic.

    I have dealt with this behavior most of my life. I was called fat, bubblebutt, tons of fun - you name it. What I really wanted to say when someone called me fat - because I am a huge smarta$$ - but never did (because I couldn't get it out quickly enough) was this:

    'Really??? Thank you so much for telling me that!! I had no idea!!! I will go fix it right away. The question now is... how can I help you???? Because - well - what are you gonna do about being a stupid, useless, waste-of-space? I mean, really? All you can get out is "FAT?" You couldn't come up with something a little more creative?'

    Fortunately, for them, I came to a point in my life where I realized I should not sink to their level no matter how much their comment hurt me... that they are the ones with the problem. Putting others down makes them feel better. How sad is that?
  • What I can tell about you...from your words as well as your pictures...is that you are a beautiful, sensitive and caring soul. You, my dear girl, are under absolutely no obligation to own someone else's ignorance. Pity them if you must, but they are most certainly not worthy of your anger. They are in every way beneath your dignity. Hold your head high, smile and confidently go on your way, and leave them to the despair of their own shame and ignominy. Some day, they too will have the weak-minded and ignorant hasten to point out their many flaws. But you...you will have maintained your nobility by treating them as the insignificant motes of dust astir in your wake as you passed them by. Give them no further thought whatsoever.
