    The comment back could be "Well, I'm fat, but you're ugly, in both attitude and looks....and *I* can diet!"
    oh YAH!!!! I thought about that one, of course after the fact..... But unlike her I would never say that to someone, I was brought up to put yourself in the other persons shoes.... So I obviously had a better mother than her too..... lol :laugh:

    I feel ya , I get this all the time . " HEY FAT BOY" OH MY gOD YOU HAVE PUT ON SOME WEIGHT" and one of my aunts allways says " boy you are putting on the weight " I am a man , but I hurt inside and keep it all locked up inside and cry to myself sometimes . Today is my 18th day living right and doing something about it , so to all you rude people can eat my dust lol

    Good for you my friend! I know just what you mean. For some reason people think that if you're a guy and you're fat, it's okay to say things that cut and hurt. You hang in there, and if you ever need anything, give me a holler!

    :angry: the first time someone said that to me was at my wedding 30+ years ago. it was some idiot my parents had invited.he asked me if thats why is was getting married! i need to tell you that i'm 5'6' and at that time i weighed 120lbs!!!!! there's no way in hell i looked pregnant and i have pictures to prove it!!!!! but now adays it happens here and there because i carry all my weight in my stomach -it's usually a little old lady and i just give her a wise crack back-(in the nicest possible way,of course). people these days have no boundaries.it's really a shame. it's the same way they feel free to discuss the food on your plate.

    Once when I was 17 (smaller than I am now and NOT fat) a someone said (in front of everyone at a store)
    "Wow what are you doing to yourself? You're getting some fat!" and did that to me every time I went to that store!!
    Over the weeks that followed I over ate a lot and got really depressed and then went on a huge diet and over exercised, starved myself, etc and lost 50 lbs. I was so stick thin and she STILL would say to me, "You're not that thin."
    Even when my mom expressed concern to her about how I wasn't eating etc she still refused to say anything positive.
    Thank goodness I came out of that horrible cycle and can now do things the healthy way!!

    Don't worry about what anyone else thinks- you're doing this for you and I bet you're already reaping the benefits!!

    Hey, think about it this way: Can you IMAGINE how embarrassing it must be to be HER?

    To walk around NOT KNOWING that she's such an idiot?
    Walking around saying things like that and people hearing her and saying to each other "Oh my god, did you hear what she said?"

    You just outed a silly person!! congrats!! :drinker: :laugh: :laugh:
