I went to the food court today to grab some asian food before my doctors appointment. The woman behind the counter was my friend's mom and she was the one who served me. After I paid, she asked me if I wanted any water. I said "yes" and before she was about to pour the water, she asked if I wanted any pop instead. I said "no I dont drink it"

She then said, "you look like you are a girl who likes to drink pop and not care about their weight" and then I said "no I do care, I recently lost 27lbs". Then she said "oh I cant really tell the difference, guess I havent seen you at your fattest weight"

That was so heartbreaking to hear :( It felt so discouraging and it also seemed like the rudest thing to say! :'(

    What a cow! Don't listen to people like this. I makes me wonder what her motivation for saying something like this is. Is her daughter (your friend) a large girl or something and she's jealous of the progress you've made? I don't get people like this. Just ignore them.

    She a total moron. Girl , DO NOT let someone who is of low mental capacity to bother you. Know that you are working hard every day become a better person.

    Good point!! Her daughter has probably made comments & expressed jealousy over your weight loss!

    Sounds like this woman has no manners or regard for anyone's feelings. I probably would have told her exactly what I thought about her since we are bluntly telling everyone exactly what we think.

    wow. I have no idea where people get the guts or the urge to say crap like that.
    I'm so sorry someone did it to you.

    Sounds to me like you were the brunt of whatever had gone wrong for her that day. Look past her ignorance and pat yourself on the back for all you have achieved. I'd say you are well on your way to your goals!!:flowerforyou:

    SO RUDE!

    ignore, cancel, delete, F7!

    That is all about HER, not about you.

    Hold your head high, you have made great progress! Don't let that idiot affect you.

    blessings.
