What is the worst comment you ever got about your weight?

I've worked in retail since I was 14, and the worst comment was made when I was about 15 and a half, and this woman kept looking at me with disgust. I was in the middle of serving her when I had to ask her "Is something bothering you?" as kindly as possible. She turned around and snarled "Someone as young as you shouldn't be having relations, let alone be pregnant at your age! Didn't your parents teach you anything? THAT is what is bothering me!". I wasn't pregnant, just on the heavier side and bloated from a greasy lunch earlier that day. Worst part was all I could come out with was a meek "I'm not though." That comment hung with me for a long while after it was said.

even though this was over 10 years ago it still hurts just as bad
in school i was about 133lbs (so lighter than i am now) and one day in class we were all just sitting there chatting, when we notice something written on the wall
'' *myname* is fat''
i was horrified. and i never found out who wrote it.

and once my ex said to me ''bellys gonna get ya'' and found it hilarious.

Yes, my parents did teach me something. MANNERS. Apparently yours forgot to teach you, you old wench.

There was an article in one of those trashy weekly magazines about a woman who was about 40 stones and squashed men for a living. One of the older women at work held up the picture and shouted across the office "Hey, even she can get a date and you can't. Must be something REALLY wrong with you."

I wasn't thrilled about it. Especially as I already had comments from her about me being stuck on the shelf. x

my wife keeps poking me sayn there is nothing there...i say thx you..i look good...((as I bite my tongue from really speaaking my mind )))...:laugh: :laugh: :laugh:

oh and I forgot in like 7th grade there were a bunch of guys standing in front of my locker (their friend had the locker next to mine) I said 'excuse me' like 5 times. Finally I just screamed MOVE so they all started 'moo'ing at me. >.<

In college I worked two jobs (and at one point three) just to make ends meet. I was working as a cashier in a grocery store for a while and one day we had a dress-down day. Because two of my jobs had uniforms and I was a broke student, my wardrobe was kind of limited and so I ended up pulling on an old (sort of too-small) sweater and a pair of jeans. Everything seemed to be fine for the first hour or so until some sweet (looking) old lady rolled through my cash. I put through her groceries and have her back her change when, in quite a loud voice, she said "You really should do something about your weight - you're just so big!"

Of course she said it loud enough for everyone near by to hear and since I was on cash I couldn't exactly walk away so I worked through to my break trying not to cry.

The other thing that sticks out in my mind is an incident with my dad around the same time. He came to visit and insisted taking me and my dog for a walk. When I said that Oreo (the dog) was unaccustomed to walking - not because we handy tried but because he wasn't fully leash trained yet - my dad made a comment about how that was obvious and insisted we go anyway. The walk that followed was horrendous. I felt like I was in boot camp with him growling at me to 'walk faster, get my heart beat going,' and crap like that.

I dated a guy in college. He was a football player. The first night we ever were intimate (after a loooong time of waiting) he said, "I really like you. You have a beautiful face. If you lost 15lbs you'd be perfect for me." (mind you, i was a US12 at the time and quite non-flabby)

Gaaah...did I mention I was naked ? I can't remember how I dealt with it... all I know is that I have yo yo dieted and been all sizes from UK8 to UK22. I'm 44 as of yesterday, and that still sticks with me. Horrific!

my was when i was 20 i had a stroke and they said it was coss how big i was and my mum's smoking and i was in a size 12

"You look like a fat Katy Perry" :laugh:

was working in retail ringing this lady up, and she says to me..."you look nice, are you pregnant?" really??!! LOL if looks could kill...

that behavior on part of my father turned me and my brother so much averse to exercise that it became a lifelong baggage to bear.
also, when i was 13 and my brother 8yrs (then chubby but not fat) our father refused to take us out with him cause he felt embarrassed about our weight problems.
i'm still fighting to keep my weight right, my brother is disinterested and continues to be obese ,those childhood slights have damaged us to deep.

I've had the people moo at me when I was a kid. (I wasn't ever over a size 10 in school but those kids were terrible.)
My Chinese aunt also let me know that I wouldn't be small like her daughter but really big like my uncle, who is a very large- in every way- 6'2" man.

But really the worst thing anyone ever said to me was "now that you are losing weight, your manly bone structure comes out a lot more." I've always been sensitive about my prominent jaw/chin and that just sent me into a weird self-hate for a bit. But I realized that I can't change my skull and I have way more to offer people than looks anyway.

No matter how gorgeous you are some idiot out there is going to open their ugly faces and say something. I saw a guy say that Miranda Kerr was hideous because of her pointy nose and her height! How insane is that? When Victoria's Secret super models get these comments too, I don't think we should feel too bad lol. Don't worry if people say these stupid things, most likely they are threatened by you because they are insecure and sad in themselves.

First one--I was 11 and my aunt told me I was fat--in front of all my friends.

Then last year a friend of a friend asked me when the baby was due. When I told her I wasn't pregnant, she said "are you sure?" Funny thing about her was she had/has a huge beer belly and looked way more pregnant than I did.
