    Oh, 1 more, poprocksncoke made me remember:

    After eating a slice of cake my mother-in-law MADE and SERVED to me: "How are you going to lose your baby weight if you keep eating stuff like that?" This was recently. I've lost 52 lbs.

    My teacher has said to my face:

    "your thighs and butt are getting bigger/you need to lose weight in your legs and butt."
    "you look like a fat cow."

    Has anyone ever been insulted like this...this is why I began dieting.

    This is how ED's start b/c at 5'8 if you reach your goal of 110 your bmi is 16.7, severely underweight. If you become a professional ballerina then sure, destroy your body now at 18 to get what you want and open a studio when you are too old by 30 but otherwise unless your are THAT good I don't think putting your body on the verge of death is worth it.

    Man, these are depressing. I guess since everyone else can laugh and post their insults, I can do the same.

    Incident 1: Dad: "You're looking less Peter Griffinish these days" -referring to my double chin-

    Incident 2: I bet if you lost 15 pounds, guys would break down the door to get to you. Don't get me wrong, you're pretty.. but you're just so.. so damn big. There's so much of you! (Said to me between the ages of 15-24)

    Incident 3: You've gotten rid of your double chin.. well there's still some more left that you need to work on but it's not nearly as much as it was before.

    Incident 4: -Said to me JUST last night- Dad: *Stares at her* You need to work more on this *pats her belly* before the rest of this *points to legs* get any smaller. You're big in the belly, but your legs are small.

    Um...is Dad skinny?

    A few weeks ago I was at a bar and some rude, drunk Army guy was making comments while I was talking to a friend. Specifically, he said "Your fat *kitten* is blocking the exit. You're a fat f*ckin fire hazard, Shamu."

    Needless to say, he was singing a different tune when I introduced my mug of beer into his crotch with more force than I've ever manage to muster before or after that situation while he was in the fetal position on the floor.

    Can I buy you a drink :drinker:

    I was riding my bike around my neighborhood and 2 young men yelled, "Oink, Oink, Oink", at me when I rode by.

    The most *retarded* I've ever heard from my mother-in-law was, "Girl, those overalls make you look FAT."

    ...I was two weeks away from giving birth. She wasn't joking.

    But I laughed so hard I couldn't even count it as hurtful.

    Wow! These are awful! I can't believe people can be so cruel! But....yes I have a few:

    1. I was on crutches because I had gout from eating gross food in Texas. A coworker said "You know, if you lost some weight you wouldn't have gout. You'd be so much better off." What an idiot: clearly she's not aware that ANYONE can have gout and it has nothing to do with weight! I wanted to smack her but she got fired shortly after so ...problem solved.

    2. Trying on clothes when I was 14 and my mom said "you can't buy that shirt, I can see your rolls." Wow, Mom, that hurts. We're best friends now but I really gave her an earful over that one!

    3. Ex-boss...also got fired strangely enough: I complained that the very pregnant lady we worked with was wearing MINI SKIRTS and liked to expose her cleavage because she thought she could get a boyfriend that way. The boss told me, "well, people with certain body types can wear different things. I mean, you couldn't come in with something like that but...." Needless to say I cut her off right there and stormed out of her office and headed straight for HR!

    A srum half on the rugby pitch called me a fat *kitten* once while raking me when I took too long to get out of the ruck...I broke 3 of his ribs (the tackle was legal!)


    People have teased me since I was a little kid. If it wasn't about weight it was about something else. The ones that got me mad enough I scrapped over, the ones that didn't I ignored. At the end of the day all that matters is how you feel about yourself. Don't let others get you down.


    Or as Katt Williams put it:
    B**** it's called SELF-ESTEEM! It's esteem of your mothaf*****' self. How am I gonna f*** up how you feel about you simple b****?

    and of course wedding shopping earlier this year... I walked in the sales lady went EEEH what size are you ? I said 20-22 she said HMM well when is the wedding?

    Most people hate themselves so to make them feel better they point out other peoples weaknesses. I had several as a kid my brothers used to moo at me and I was very lean 5'6" and 120lbs. I try to focus on how I feel about myself and it is amazing even thou I may not loose weight but am working out my attitude changes and I feel great about life.

    A salesperson at Nordstrom told me that "They don't carry these clothes in big girl sizes". It was a Tahari suit and I was a size 12 at the time... I wrote it off to her being a beach.

    This happened when I was around 8 and colored my self image for decades:
    My mom took me to ballet and tap lessons at a local park district. After the first series of classes the instructor told my mom, in my presence, "Don't bring her back she is fat and clumsy." I Still tear up when I think of it and I am 61 now.

    My mother-in-law offered to take me dress shopping because I'm so big that they didn't sell my size in many stores. You know, I can't think of a store that doesn't sell a size 14, but that's just me...

    Most stores in Canada are max 13, but you won't usually see it, 11's maybe. Size 14 would only be found in fuddy-duddy stores like Sears and Talbots. Old Navy when it came to Canada many years ago was one of the first stores to carry XL and they actually have 2-3XL sometimes, usually on the clearance racks.

    I had a friend one time that was mad and she wrote to another friend who showed it to me. That sloppy fat *kitten* redheaded *****. Ok I get the fat part but when your redheaded why do people tend to add that part it???? When I am mad I dont refer to hair color. what gives?

    This whole post is making me cry. Considering I've been overweight since I was about 8 or 9...I've heard all of them I think.

    Someone congratulated me one time on being pregnant and asked when I was due...I told him in 12 or 13 years. He apologized. What I didn't know at the time was 12 years later I'd have my daughter.

    "You've got a pretty face"...yeah...well...thanks for inadvertently pointing out that you find the rest of me repulsive.

    Had kids just say "wow you're fat"...well you're an impolite *kitten* who is going to end up doing time one day if you don't straighten up! Momma should teach some manners.

    I have learned over the years to learn to ignore most of it.

    On the other hand, now that I'm dropping pounds and inches I have had people who recognize the effort and the changes...I do NOT like being the center of attention and it kind of scares me! I'd like to be healthy and invisible if at all possible.

    Um...is Dad skinny?

    He's between the weight of 185-195... I don't call that skinny per se, but I'm not sure just where that fits.. He has a pot belly is all I know.

    I have a couple.

    I told my grandma I didn't really like spaghetti and probably wouldn't eat very much of it---to be nice and not make her feel bad. She responded back by saying "Glad you told me, you look like the kind of girl who would clean your plate even if you didn't like the food." I was about 10 at the time.

    I had a good friend (no longer friends) who I had a crush on for a long time. When I get sad about not finding a good last relationship he told me I'd find a guy if I just lost some weight.

    I forgot one but this just made me laugh!
    Someone said "your sister weighs about 100lbs, your mom is 100 lbs more than her, you dad is 100 lbs more than that and you're 100 lbs more than him! You need to lose weight!" I was like wtf?! You know that means I would weigh over 400 lbs right? Where did you go to school? I was 15 years old and 210 at the time.

    I find most of these posts upsetting. People are just awful. I hope everyone that suffers these insults, especially by family members, can work through it and not let it ruin their progress. I don't understand how people can be so cruel with their comments. When I was a teenager, my best friend and I went through school being nicknamed "Laurel & Hardy". I was tall, and very very skinny (people insult skinny people too) and she was short and overweight. I was more hurt than she was, so go figure.
    Hugs to all of you!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
