Hey guys... Today I feel kinda sad. I've been on MFP for 2 months and I've lost 29 lbs which I'm very proud of myself for. The other day this guy that I take a class with at college, told me to go with him to one of his classes, which is across the campus, and that day in particular I was feeling really sick, so I told him how I felt and that I didn't want to walk that much, and then he told: "Oh come on, you know YOU NEED IT! YOU'RE FAT!"... The only thing I could say is that I know I'M FAT but I'm working really hard to get the weight off, but on the other hand, his stupid attitude will be with him for the rest of his life.

I know I shouldn't listen to what other people say, and maybe he is just that miserable that he needs to insult people in order to feel better about himself, but I feel really really sad...

    Ugh!! The nerve of him. No one with any decency just says "hey you're fat". That's just plain rude and it is a total reflection of who he is not you. I know it's hard but try not to let it get you down. You've accomplished so much!! Be proud of yourself.

    Yep, tell him you lost an extra 100 to 200 lbs just then by walking away from his bum!

    Nice comeback, though. It's kinda like what I told someone that called me unattractive which was probably also due to my weight. I said, "At least I can fix this, and am working to.... you, however, are ugly on the inside which makes you ugly on the outside and one cannot fix that."

    OMG that is awful. this guy is so damn right rude and clearly doesn't know what the hell he is talking about. next time you see him I would either avoid him or say a few harsh words to him. ****ing idiot!

    On the positive side - 28lbs in 2 months!!!!!!!!!!!!!! that is friggen awesome!!!!! I've been on here for 9 months at just at 21lbs.

    Your right, you can lose the weight but maybe he won't lose his 'charm' or lack or it!

    Be strong and don't let idiots like this get to you.

    Well done on you loss (p.s. you don't look fat at all in your profile pic). x

    You have lost double the amount of weight that I have in the same time. WELL DONE! Seriously I think as much as it is hard, you need to ignore jerks like this and think about what you have accomplished so far. I think you gave him the right comeback, he is a idiot and always will be, but the pounds are falling off you xx Sorry you had to go through that, but again, well done xx

    Here's a bumper sticker I saw one day that fits this perfectly:
    "I know I'm fat, but you're ugly - at least I can lose weight!"

    Really, the guy sounds like a competely insensitive jerk. You should be so proud of yourself, you've come such a long way and I'm sure you feel so much better in yourself for the effort. You've managed to loose an amazing amount and no-one should ever try and take that away from you. Keep up the good work.

    Yeah, he is. But he's one of the few dominicans with a very stupid attitude. I'm dominican as well and I would NEVER say something to hurt somebody.
