    I have a favorite return for just such people...not always polite, but since they started it..."I may be fat...but your ugly and I can go on a diet!" Just let's them know they just crossed the line...stand firm and stay strong!

    I am SUPER sorry this ever happened to you. I can relate, I have had some mean people say some vicious things to me, as well. I wanted to cry, but I thought to myself that if I cry - they win. Then me being the b*tch I am would have let her have it both barrels and had her on her knees crying.

    Her judgement day will come - and it wont be pretty!!

    *HUGE HUGS* hang in there and dont let the evil wenches of the world get you down - you can do this!

    If tattoos send you to hell then so does pretty much everything else, that woman should read her bible properly sometime! i have 2 on my back loooooove tattoos! God forgives you know or perhaps she skipped that bit in bible class? Not that i am massively religious! What was that about loving thy neighbour again?? ;0)

    i am sorry that so many people have to deal with the ugly side of life but glad that you have come up with some cracking retorts!

    What a horrid person.
    All I can say is that she sounds like the kind of person that hates everything and will never be happy.

    I have such anger issues that it's probably better this happened to you instead of me, because I'm pretty sure I would have murdered her right then and there. I despise rude people and just because she has the right to 'freedom of speech' doesn't make what she had to say any less tacky, rude, disrespectful, etc. and it certainly doesn't mean she should be downright mean to complete strangers.

    . I think we would be good friends in jail. I would have killed her too.

    Oh Dear, I'm so sorry. Just know the problem is her and NOT you!!!! I'm soooo proud of you for going to Dunkin Donuts and not having a donut. WOW!!! That is what you should focus on. That is a Huge accomplishment. Don't let that twit drag you down. Focus on how you were a strong person and made good choices. Please don't give up. You can get thin, but she'll ALWAYS be a horrid Biotch! Hugs!

    My friend Garry who owns several tattoo studios said it the best, "my body is a temple and this is how I chose to decorate the walls".

    I have pretty thick skin and the gift of a quick tongue. I don't mine putting people in their place when it is necessary.

    I just want to give you a hug! Sometimes miserable people need to take out their self hatrid on others. I'm sure she hogged herself down some bad food and you were the strong one!:wink:

    That's total crap she doesn't know anything about you and she was just being a horrible person. I wish I was there I would have said something really snarky like... "Well I hate hearing dumb people talk so I guess we are even." Your doing the right thing and you know yourself better then the ransom DD visitor does. You have support here keep doing your best all that matters is that you stay healthy and make the right choices

    How incredibly rude!!!!! I think like you I'd've been stuck for words! Don't let her upset you, she clearly has issues of her own and is an inferior being!!

    ... FEEL GREAT ABOUT THE HEALTHY CHOICE YOU MADE IN YOUR ORDER & SCREW HER!!! :flowerforyou:

    That was a horrible thing for her to say. IF you should ever happen to see her again, at a Dunkin' Donut or anywhere else, you might say something like "I was hurt by your remark about not liking to see fat people eat, and just in case you are interested I am DOING something about that so that I will feel better about myself and be healthier. What are YOU doing about your problem of having no 'filter' on what you say to people?"

    Please don't bring Asperger's into this. My son has Asperger's; the condition has nothing to do with rudeness. In fact, many poeple with Asperger's have rudeness inflicted on them. I am not responding in anger -- I just want to educate.

    I am so sorry that happened to you. What a horrible person. You did great. If I had been sitting in a donut shop, I would have been eating a donut, not drinking tea! Good for you. How can people now know how deeply words can wound? I'm a certified personal trainer. I wanted to wait until I got all my weight off before getting certified, but my best friend and my trainer both pushed me to get certified two years ago. Good thing, because this last 30 or so doesn't seem to want to budge. But I'm healthy and fit and I've lost 100 pounds, and I'm good at what I do. There was another trainer at my gym who didn't know me or how much I had lost. He is an *kitten* and was always setting up in the middle of where I was working with my clients. I always just nicely asked him to move his stuff over or what ever. He got snarky with me a couple of times and I always just sort of laughed it off. But one day he blew up at me and told me that it didn't matter if I was there before him, when he came in I needed to get out of his way. I told him I had as much right to work with my clients as he did and he told me he had been there long before I started coming. I told him that I had been working out there for three years and had been working with clients there for over a year. Then he hit me in my most sensitive spot...he said, "Well, it's obviously not working for you." He said it in front of my client, and several guys who were there working out. I told him he was an *kitten* and didn't show how I felt, but I was devastated. My biggest fear was because I'm not skinny people wouldn't take me seriously as a trainer. I cried for 3 days every time I thought about it and I moved my clients to a place in the gym where I would be as inconspicuous as possible for about 3 months. The gym owner came to me and told me that I had as much right to train there as he did and I filled an important niche with certain clients and to get out there and do what I do well. And they told the guy about how much I had lost and how far I had come and he came and apologized later. But I still hate his guts.

    someone like that has such a horrible evil life that they lash out at everyone just to try to make others as miserable as they are. i know its impossible to not let things bug you (I'm super sensitive about things), but really you have to know that this person is just plain mean and evil and its no true reflection on you at all.

    it doesn't matter that you weren't eating, hell even on a calorie restriction diet you can eat donuts occasionally. even if you were holding a box of a dozen donuts, shirt covered in powdered sugar, smoking, AND talking with a whole donut shoved in your mouth it wouldn't be justification for her to stare or say something as mean as that.

    just enjoy your life, be happy with your family and remember all the good things about your life. Including taking the time to dedicate part of your life to your health as you are since you are here on mfp. you are a better person.

    I haven't been on MFP for very long and have not posted anything yet. I feel the need to post this because I cannot believe how rude some people can be!! Not people on here, people in public...
    I took my three year old to Dunkin Donuts this AM because I promised him a hot chocolate... I was good, I got a small tea with skim milk and splenda... No donut, muffin or greasy sandwiches... Some lady was staring at me making the strangest face...
    So I said to her, "do we know eachother?" I was very friendly... She said "No I just really hate watching fat people eat!"
    I was devastated!! I wasn't even eating, I had a tea... I must admit, I cried on the way home:(

    You should of turned round and said "I hate it when Ugly people talk to me but here i am talking to you"

    Mean people suck!! Im sorry for your experience with a mean person.. I have had thoughtless people (women even) assume that i was pregnAnt when i wasnt. It made me angry and depressed and want to cry.. But on a positive note it also made me want to try that much harder to succeed.

    Try to turn it around and not dwell on the comment too much but focus on the positive and use it for extra motivation if u can.

    Keep at it and good luck!!

    This website (and all social networks) are full of RUDE people and people that think they are better than every one else. Add in the element of fitness, nutrition, and weight loss and you have a fire storm.

    Just stand your ground and ignore anyone (or block them) that you don't like on here or anyone that is mean. You're here for you and you alone.

    Learn to read.

    What a horrible person! Don't let it get you down though... in fact, just feel sorry for her. She's clearly an unhappy cynical person, because no one with an ounce of human emotion would say that to someone else.

    I am so sorry that happened to you...please know the problem is with her. She must have some mental illness to be filled with such hateful thoughts and words.
    Keep up your good work and know you are awesome at any weight!!! :flowerforyou:
