Yes, I got the good old "We do discounts for pregnant ladies!" Erm, no.... I'm still just fat from my daughter 5 years ago! That gave me the trigger to lose 2 stone and drop 3 dress sizes!

Been told " blimey, you've put on a bit off beef!" To which I said at least I was a prime fillet offering. Went off and cried later
sometimes think it's the ones who look without speaking which are worse.

I have been too thin and too fat and I only ever got negative comments when I was thin.

I was out on a date and my date saw his friends after the date.They asked him if he was with me and he said " no way in hell,can you see the size of her, she ain't my type".You can imagine how I felt as I could hear what he said.

This guy is a dick. You shouldn't waste your time thinking about guys like him, you're worth more than that.

I used to get very upset and angry about the comments and snide remarks. I have always said what I was thinking. Now I discard it as jibberish and don't even respond.

My three year old granddaughter said grandad do something you're really fat.

Was stopped at a service station in the summer in the middle of a Lincs to Wales trek, and grabbed a BK as is the usual road trip treat. Then this woman on the next table commented about "how all people in the UK seem to be very fat" rude, obviously left a mark as still think about it.

Plus nothing like your own mother telling you that you need to go on the Cambridge diet and that you don't see a fat anorexic. Ta mother!

A guy said "Alright, chunky" as I was leaving a pub once (this was after I had lost 1 1/2 stones)

My friend said in shock "Did you just hear what he said?!"

"Yes" I replied "But why should I care what a beer bellied alcoholic, who is drunk at 3pm in the afternoon, thinks of me?"

(I've lost another 2 stone since then. I bet he's still a sad, judgmental alcoholic, wasting his life at the bar, whilst I'm improving everyday)

Haha yep it's usually a pillock with a beer gut, smoking a *kitten* that shouts insults

I didn't get as much stick for being fat as an adult but as a kid it was pretty horrendous. I never said anything back to the nasty comments and it pretty much shattered my self esteem. I make a point to talk to my young nieces (one is overweight and has been bullied for it.. even by her dad) and emphasise the fact that we are all more than our bodies but that it's important to take care of ourselves so that we can be healthy and happy.

When I was fat as an adult some random bloke at the bus station called me Jenny tubby (wish I was as cute as the teletubbies but not as fat ). I'm already really paranoid about my belly as it's the area I hold the most weight so I was pretty devastated at the time. As much as it really upset me though it gave me the kick to start looking after my health at a time when I hadn't actually realised how much weight I'd put on.

I still have trouble exercising in public even after I've lost all this weight because I'm so anxious about other people making comments or giving me haughty looks . It's not a good idea to talk back to some of the people in my area in terms of my own safety so I have to remind myself to ignore the sniggers and comments but by that point I've usually already flashed them a dirty look without realising Sometimes I just wanna stick my tongue out and be like 'I know you are, you said you are but whaaat am I?' just to emphasise the childishness of their own comments.

I just don't like it when people comment about my weight, full stop. If people say , "Goodness you've lost weight!' A little voice in my head adds "...you were such a blimp before." There's just no pleasing me I suppose.
