    "eat a cheeseburger" OR "someone should forcefeed you a sammich..."

    I hate this! It sucks that we live in a world where you're made fun of for being fat and mocked for being fit too. Seems like you just can't win!

    I think you are gorgeous btw. :smile:

    I was food shopping with my mum and this guy turned around and said do you even feed her to my mum. We didn't know him, it really hurt. That was earlier this year, first time I had been out in two weeks. Really discouraging as I was doing really well but I'm back on track now.
    Some people will be rude in life, it's just how it is, it doesn't mean you need to retaliate though, all you can do is remember you're better than them. Alot of the time people say hurtful things because they're jealous or their lives are so boring that hurting others fills the gap.

    A guy I'm friends with just recently told me I have the body of a fertility goddess. I'm still not certain, but I think it was a back-handed compliment. It made me feel like crap =/

    This maybe doesn't sound so bad but it really resonated - I used to pull pints in a pub when I was a student and one of the regulars was staring at me one day and in a surprised voice suddenly announced 'you know what, you're actually really sexy, for a big girl'.

    Just hated that qualifier.

    i went to a fitness class to try and lose weight and the fitness instructor said to me ' are you sure you're gonna be able to walk around here, everyone else will be running, but i feel you should walk! You just look...too fat to run around here.' i was mortified, it was a fitness class for people trying to lose weight and he just singled me out.

    I was hanging out with people that I thought were my friends and we were talking about losing weight and they told me I had a fat pear shape and that I would look better small.

    I'm not sure if mine is rude, but it made me start to think I was fat at a young age...

    In 7th grade, I was at an amusement park waiting in line for a show with an old friend and her mom. Mind you that they are "genetically blessed" with thin figures. Her mom says to me "You look a little thinner today"

    In 7th grade, I shouldn't have been thinking about being fat already.

    " Why is it that fat people have pretty faces" and " Have you ever wondered why you were always on the heavy side"

    But the icing on the cake was when I saw my first ever boyfriend ( who i still adore) just before Christmas and he said ( whilst patting my behind)
    " Im sure theres alot more *kitten* here these days"
    I intend to show him that theres gonna be alot less *kitten* there in time to come !!!!!

    And maybe its time I didnt adore him so much, maybe it will be easier to do with less *kitten* lol

    This one is actually quite funny, but it was my Dad who cut me down to size. I said very proudly one day "I think I've got an hour-glass figure" to which he replied "Yes, but what a pity all the sand has run to the bottom". Parents, couldn't you just kill them!!

    My little brother would say some pretty rude things to me about my weight. He always made a point to jab me in the stomach or my arms (where most of the fat is). It ticked me off more than it hurt. Granted, we tease each other all the time, it's our way of showing each other we love one another..in a weird way..but the comments he always made about my weight actually stung.

    Then my mom, the queen of making you feel guilty, would always comment on it. Anytime we went shopping (food or clothes), anytime we ate dinner...yeah just pretty much any time we did anything together she'd always bring up my weight. She wasn't mean about it, but she did hound me on it. The way she'd talk to me and look at me (puppy dog/concerned mom eyes) actually reduced me to tears a few times. Though, to be truthful, I honestly think I didn't start losing weight a long time ago just to spite her and her nagging. But the biggest blow I think was when I returned home a week or so ago and my mom told me she was so happy I was finally doing it and how she had speculated (with my father) for a long time about the health problems I just HAD to be having....

    After repeatedly cheating on me and then making an agreement to only sleep with me if I put on porn of skinny blonde chicks or held a porn magazine while we were having sex, my ex said, "If you weren't so fat and disgusting, I wouldn't want to sleep with other women. If you looked like this {he ripped out and threw a Playboy centerfold at me}, I'd never stick my d**k anywhere else. But YOU DON'T... count yourself lucky that you get any at all Lard *kitten*!"

    glad i read he is your EX! He is a douche canoe! Exceeds the limits of *kitten*!

    In high school, and mind you... I wasn't really overweight... I just carried all my weight in my thighs/butt. "You're the fullest ballerina I've ever seen"

    I was walking into a grocery store and some guys sitting in a car started moooo'g at me.

    My mom has always told me "I have a *kitten* *kitten*" and honestly no insult nor racist remark meant by me. She was always on to me about my weight but for some reason she has always hated the size of my *kitten*!

    I was actually quite small throughout my life and i didn't start having weight issues till i hit high school and it got worse after my mother put me on weight watchers when i was 15, and i was only a size 14! From that moment on i had issues with weight all the time! Here are a couple of my incidents!

    I was in High school and i was walking down the corridor and one of these boys started going : Boom Boom Boom, hold onto your hats boys i think its a earthquake!

    My friend hooked up with this guy back when we were like 19 and his mate liked me, but he had the nerve to say " If you lost weight i would go out with you!

    My younger sister did modelling and pageants and whenever they would meet me after they met her i always either got that look like " why are you that size and she is so tiny! or they would say hey if you lost weight you could enter a pageant.I was only two sizes bigger than her at that time!

    Although I think it's unhealthy to ruminate on the negative and generally try not to think about this...

    I'll never forget one day in the middle of a solid year of the worst depression I've felt in my life, when my dad (who is usually a loving and awesome father) said to me, "You're blowing up like a balloon." I've been subject to horrible bullying in my life and been mooed at and told to go kill myself, but nothing has ever hurt more than that comment from someone who is supposed to love me. =\

    Didn't motivate me to lose weight either...

    But my dad is a good guy, he's just a moron sometimes. And I try to put that stuff behind me. I can't obsess over being judged when I'm trying to lead a healthy life.

    My mom won't let me sit in the passenger seat of her SUV... I have to sit in the back in the middle.

    She tells me if I sat in the front the frame wouldn't support it....
