Most hurtful comments

I dont recall anyone aking comments like that to me but i can assure you they'd get the sharp end of my tongue and a big *kitten* off if they had!

Hw dare people be so nasty!

They are insecure and thats why they feel the need to make ignorant comments. forget them. You are beautiful on the outside as well as the inside.Keep doing what your doing. feel free to add me.

I can't believe how awful people are. It's sad. I've also been called "fat" and "pudgy." Even as a kid. I was told I was too fat to do ballet by a rec council ballet teacher! I was called "chunky" by my sewing instructor when I was 8. I've had other kids call me names throughout my life. My ex-boyfriend used to make fun of me for my size and lack of strength, then tell me I was crazy for dieting and exercising. It's hurtful, and it's mean! We'd never instruct our kids to say things like that! I'm sorry that you've been so hurt. It's difficult to let comments like that "roll off," like so many people will tell you to do. Those people are ignorant, and they don't define who you are. You are a beautiful, intelligent, kind woman. Thanks for having the courage to share your hurts with us. There are good people out there who support you on your journey to be HEALTHY and happy!

For some reason, my experience anyway, is that people don't seem to have a filter when it comes to overweight people. They feel like they can say whatever they want. I had a doctor I know come up to me and say, looks like you put on weight since the last time I saw you. I wasn't asking for an opinion. You had some pretty nasty things said to you. BUT, you got it off your chest and now you can let it go. I'm sorry that happened to you.

Ugh. I have been screamed at from cars more times than I could count, many times while I was pushing a baby stroller or just generally had children in tow. Then, one time, I was walking down the street, and I had a red shirt on and someone yelled "Hey, Kool-Aid!" from a second floor window. I didn't wear red for almost 10 years after that. I will never understand the ease with which some people inflict serious emotional scars on others, just for fun.

:drinker: Hi there...are you kidding me...what a couple of *kitten*-*****....don't you dare waste your pretty little head on those jerks. and kuddos to you my dear for over-coming and moving forward in 2010...:flowerforyou: Now to let you know my dear you are not alone...sometimes I wonder if over the years I maybe let my weight get so out of control do to exact jerks like you ran across. I remember as a young girl and getting that womanly figure (my breasts & hips) emerged before the other young girls I went to school with, but seems the only people I attracted were the jerks who couldn't believe an 11-12 girl didn't want their ugly advances...the more weight I gained the less I had to deal w/them...and by the way the advances came from all..all ages too...from school-mates, to people I met walking to school to clergy...:grumble: I married early 20...had children & here came fat girl again....that marriage lasted 8 yrs.:ohwell: 4 yrs. later I married the prince I am married to today/30 yrs. ago Valentine's Day but he has witnessed first hand the pain & humilation I have delt with. Are people so ignorant they think we sit at home and say...ohhhh I sooo badly want to be FAT.....are you kidding me...I think one of the most hurtful times was when my beautiful daughter, Brandi was having an icecream party at school, she was around 8. Once I arrived to the lunch room the little girl next to her told the girl next to her. "hurry, let's go get our ice-cream, Brandi's mom just arrived & if she gets up there will be none left for any of us." Talk about wanting to die....I don't know who hurt more Brandi or I. Hold you head up and just remember there are good people and there are bad......you know you are one of the GOOD-ones....I just wanted to let you know you are not alone.....:flowerforyou: Lori

When daughter was about 6 months old (and I was still carrying a lot of weight around my mid-section), I had a lady walk up to me at the grocery store and ask when I was due. I told her "six months ago" and pointed to my daughter, she then apologized.

The worst though, would have to be from my own father. I was pudgy as a pre-teen and he used to call me fat all the time.

i cannot even begin to comprehend how anybody could say something like that to a complete stranger. it boggles my mind that people can be raised in such a way as to think that's in any way appropriate or acceptable in polite society. maybe it's a generational thing, but when i was a kid, we were taught to be polite to strangers as normal everyday behavior.

What a moron.. people in general are just spiteful most of the time there is something wrong in their lives and they lash out at people to make themselves feel good. It doesn't last long then they are off to do it someone else. Ignore the pettiness and know what a beautiful and loving person you are.

I have to get this off my chest. I had a man "Oink" at me. He was a middle aged, well dressed man, who passed by me as I came out of the cupcake shop as I was picking up cupcakes for a birthday celebration in my office. He made 2 "oink" sounds as he passed by me and went on his merry way - probably feeling pretty good about himself that he was able to point out that I was fat. Thank you stranger, for making me feel bad about myself. Also, on another occasion, I was in Mexico with my family. Anyone who knows me knows that I can't pass by a stray animal without helping. So I bring ziplock bags with me and put some food from the buffets in it and after dinner I go to feed the local strays. I filled up a bag at dinner and took it to feed this tiny little beautiful white cat that was living under the sidewalk in a little hole. Later that night, a guy at the bar says to me "Did you get enough to eat at dinner?" I was confused for a moment then realized him and his wife were next to us and he probably saw me stuffing meat into my purse. "Yes, thank you, why do you ask" he kindly let me know that the buffets were open til midnight and if the 3 plates i had (soup, dinner and dessert, thanks for counting!) weren't enough, then I had a problem. He also walked away, quite proud of himself. I have never told anyone this, and I hate the fact that I am even dignifying their ignorance, but it hurt. Anyone else want to vent and let go of comments that have hurt them?

You should have said "when did they release you from the farm? You seem to be lost in people land."

Projection, darling. Only people who have some sort of insecurity need to make others feel bad. But then again, no one can make you feel bad without your consent.

I have to get this off my chest. I had a man "Oink" at me.

There's two words you need to remember about this type of *kitten*: tiny penis

yep. walking out of a grocery store with my smaller cousin, a man walking in points at her then i and says "little one, big one"

Since these are all men making horrid comments I would strongly suggest you walk over and nut punch the next one that does it, *kitten* them. And unless they want to be known as a little b%tch they won't do anything about it. It's hurtful just like their words are.

To me, it hurts a lot more when I know the person making hurtful comments/outbursts. If I didn't know who they were, it would be a lot easier to brush them off or curse at them. Imagine if it's someone you live with or work with making nasty comments every time they 'felt like it' because of your weight or looks. Don't give those strangers any of your time. The fact that you don't know them on a personal level, the fact that they aren't part of your life is a blessing. :flowerforyou:

While I was driving a few months ago, I grabbed a piece of gum, and as I was putting it in my mouth, happened to glance at the vehicle next to me. The guy in the truck was making a puffy cheeked face at me and then he flipped me off and sped away. I just don't understand people sometimes.
