I really don't want to go back to the gym...

"Don't let someone else's opinion of you become your reality." Les Brown.

"You can't fix stupid" - Ron White.

This chick has bigger problems than you ever will and asshats like her don't deserve to be able to affect other people's lives.

Get back in there. You deserve to be there, you deserve to do this for you. Don't get embarrassed and hide, get mad and show that ***** that you have just as much a right to be there as her rude little butt does.

If she's going on in class, take it up with the instructor. If it's out of class, master a death stare.

People can only make you feel as bad as you let them.

You keep on going to that gym. Obviously that girl has issues that need more attention than going to a gym. You don't have to meet any certain requirement to be seen in public (although, clothing is always a good idea...just sayin'. lol). You're a human being and you have just as much of a right to be at that gym as anyone else does. So I say you keep on with the routine you were loving. You go and do your thing and show that girl how awesome you are and while you're at it, you'll show yourself! Don't give her the power of dictating to you how you feel about yourself!

P.S. - The gym is intended for people of all different shapes and sizes working towards various fitness goals.

This is what my response would have been had I overheard that:

"I know, right!? It's almost as bad as when narrow-minded, egotistical, dim-witted (insert expletive, I would have gone with one that starts with c) waste space in this universe with their existence, huh? Oh well. That's life, I guess." and then go back at being awesome at yoga.

There is no room for that sort of attitude in a place of health and fitness.

This. This one wins. OP, I would double up on the yoga classes just to spite that bish. And I'd eat a burrito for lunch and make sure my big sexy musical butt was right in her face when we did Downward Dog.

I'm one of the more fit people that work out at my gym (trust me it wasn't always that way). When I see people that are working their tails off, no matter what their body type...I have tremendous respect for them. There are very few people born into the body they want, everyone in the gym started from ground zero and is trying to better themselves.

Never be satisfied with where you are, but also never be ashamed for trying to make a difference. After all, you ARE lapping everyone sitting on their couch right now, right?

I know this is going to sound cliche, but I usually find that these girls are really, really insecure, myself included. When I find myself thinking nasty thoughts about another female in the gym, whether it's for how she's behaving while she's lifting, what kind of workout she's doing, how much she's lifting... if I really look into myself, I can almost always point to some kind of mean jealousy or insecurity about myself. The fact that they chose to vocalize it just means they're that much more insecure and jerk-y. Ignore them. Pity them, probably. If you keep doing you, they'll get over it. You have nothing to prove to anyone.

Appropriate weight to be seen at the gym: anywhere from 1-X000
Don't let the narrow mindedness and RUDEness of one Mega-B derail you from your health goals. Go in, hold your head high, and if she says something again, confront her or talk to management. Your being there doesn't detract from her experience, if anything, hers detracts from yours. Bring some friends if you need the extra support.

There are horrible people everywhere you go... and even if everyone was skinny at the gym class.. they would find something bad to say about someone..

This person has no right to be at the gym with you... and You should inform the owner that she is making others feel uncomfortable... because she is only one... and she is running off many... by making rude comments... I know if it was my gym i wouldn't want her there...

Ignore her, if she doesn't like sharing the class she can find another.
