your worse or humiliating experience when fat?

Also was when my friends (male and female) talk about their weight and how fat they are, when I'm just sitting in the corner wanting the world to swallow me up as I'm (or was now) the heaviest out of all of them

This. My.entire.life.

Ever scan a room to see if your'e the fattest one there?

I do.

Every time.


On another note:

Thanks everyone for your support. I've decided that my husband's comments while very hurtful for me, were also very painful for him to have to say to me. When we married, we promised each other honesty above all. Now that I've had a couple of days to think, I've decided that it's only made me more determined.

Afterall..... he is my best friend for a reason right?

Sitting in a waiting room, waiting to board a flight, a woman (not small herself), saying : 'I don't want to be rude dear, but I hope I don't have to sit next to you on the flight.' Me: 'Why?' She: 'You must have to wear one of those belt extender things.' (I don't...not by quite a way).

Boys singing the song: 'Hey fatty boom boom' at me.

The Look...oh The Look.

And the old classic: 'You don't sweat much...for a fat girl.'

The most hurtful one was last year at a 4th of July cook out. My new stepmom, who doesn't speak English as her first language to her credit, pointed out how chubby my arms and hips were to me, but how small my waist was. I thought it was pretty damned rude and told my boyfriend, who said to me "Well just think of her as a kid. She's just being REALLY honest," instead of comforting me. Nothing else has ever made me feel so ashamed as those comments.

The most humiliating though would have been when I was shopping in London and a shop attendant wanted to take my clothes to the dressing room. Some of the stuff was on mislabled hangers, but I was perfectly aware of what size was actually on the tag, and they were oversized loose shirts to boot. The woman flicked through my sizes and told me they were much too small, sized me up and told me what size she thought I was....which was 3 sizes bigger than I needed. I almost smacked the makeup off her face, marched to the dressing room, and made quite a big show of coming out and showing her that the smallest size in her store still fit me. And it did, even though I was 35 lbs heavier then. I'm going back in a few weeks and can't wait to go back to that store and leave with nothing this time because it's all outlandishly huge on me instead of because I'm so angry.

When my niece was little, I over heard my sister telling her how much she was "aunt Tammy's mini me" she used to act just like me. My niece got so upset and started crying because " I dont wanna be fat like aunt Tammy!"

I'm an ER nurse and in saying this I see ALOT of pregnant ladies.....
I get asked WEEKLY, "How far along are you?!" "Oh your pregnant too?!" Or worse! Some of the doctors I have worked with... "I didn't know you were expecting!" Me.... And almost always my response "I'm not pregnant, I'm fat."
Never again! This sucks! I'm short and carry all my weight in my mid section.
I swear once I get in shape.... The only time I will ever be asked this again is when I am pregnant and lucky enough to even get there.

It's happen to me several times too. Only I work in a bar:( I think about it while struggling through ab workouts.

My family were commenting on my weight-gain behind my back when my little cousin (3yrs old) overheard and started saying "amy fat" over and over. The worse part though was my aunty encouraging it and other relatives finding it hilarious.

That is absolutely deplorable, you family should be ashamed of themselves. You keep doing what you’re doing; you’ll get the last laugh!

Have dealt with it my whole life. Earliest memory of it in 5th grade with 2 girls pushing me against the wall of a building at school and slapping my face while they called me "fatty". Being called fat while driving my car by boys, being referred to as the "fat friend" since all my girl friends are gorgeous and naturally in shape. Most recently, when a girlfriend from work asked me to go shopping with her here in Buckhead. We went to this adorable little high-end 2nd hand store... where i realized they don't carry anything bigger than a size 8. She spent the trip trying on and buying the cutest name-brand items at bargain prices while i watched and left empty handed, feeling ashamed and angry. Every time i look at a photo of myself I'm embarrassed... and having sex? All I can say is that most of my life I've been more concerned with what my partner will think of when he sees my fatness than anything else.

My most humiliating experience with being fat had to be when I ran into an ex boyfriend. The guy and I had dated for 2 years and the relationship ended sourly. I was happy to hear that he had moved miles and miles away. He married and had a few children and was successful.

Well, four years later he visited his hometown (where I still reside). It was mid summer and I had just got finished swimming. I stopped by the grocery store to pick up some supplies for dinner and that is where I saw him.
At this point in life I had no idea of how overweight I actually was. I saw him pointing and laughing at me with his mouth ajar. I couldn't understand why he and his wife were laughing but it was making me uncomfortable because I knew it was about me.

Later that night I received a link to my ex facebook page where he was describing in detail at how fat I was. He mentioned that I had a year worth of cottage cheese on my legs and ten rolls. Even his wife was participating in the roast of me. I was devastated at that point and I was very depressed for several days. At that moment I realized that I was no longer the thin teenage girl that I used to be. I realized I could no longer eat anything that I desired.

This was by far the most humiliating weight related experience that I've ever had happen!!!

Be happy he is an ex, you certainly deserve someone much better... To me, they are the truly ugly ones...

You should be THANKFUL that your relationship with this JERK didn't work out!!!

Well there was the time at the beach when Greenpeace showed up and tried to push me back into the water. But seriously, it would be when I was scuba diving and I didn’t have enough weight to allow me to go down, I was to buoyant to sink. Just call me Bob!
