Worst negative comment about your weight?

I've had a few nasty comments said to me, but I only remember the cruel things I'd say in response without even thinking. My attitude, especially when I was younger, was to hurt you 10x as much as you had hurt me. So, I don't recall exactly what these two girls had said, but I had replied "Fat is temporary, but (their race) is forever. I guess I'm the lucky one, huh." One girl was livid, and the other's mouth dropped open and stayed that way. I kept walking. I don't know why I reacted so badly.

The best thing to remember is that your condition is temporary. People will not be making those comments forever to you. They will be making those kinds of comments forever to others, though, because their personalities are rank. Do you want to be like them, i asked myself?

I'm still ashamed of that to this day. Comments still hurt, but you can't hear anything if you have your iPod on, right?

Edit: Oh, and we all have dirt on each other in my family, so we keep our mouths shut unless we really want to invite the pain!

i love how most of these comments that r so rude r from our friends and family do they really think saying things like that makes it better.. my mom always hinted to me being bigger and she use to point at my belly and say if ur gonna wear that shirt suck it in and not to be rude to her but she was almost twice my size. one day she told me that i looked heavy in a shirt and that i had a huge muffin top and then the next night she asked to borrow a shirt of mine and remembering what she said to me before i told her no i didn't want it stretched out then i felt bad

My sister was showing her new boyfriend (who I had only just met ) some photos from when we were younger (and skinnier) she told him that I used to have a body like Kylie Minogue. He turned around and said wow! you looked HOT! ... What happened???...........*kitten*!!!!

My father sold his house 5 years ago and gave all of my siblings $1,000.00 cash.... all of my siblings but not me, stating "Lose 100 pounds and ill give you your share, that should motivate you." I was 17 and 180 lbs at the time...

My mom once told me while I was putting on my makeup for the day that I "could apply all the makeup in the world but it won't help if i'm fat."

wow! you take the cake for insults!

A few years ago, a distant cousin said: You'd look more like your mom if you were smaller. (My mom was a skinny minnie growing up. At some point in childhood she gained a bit and was a size 14 for 1-2 years. These days she's 6-8. I don't really have her body type at all. The only thing I have in common with my mom body wise is mostly the limbs: bigger arms, bigger thighs. I also passed her in the breast department by 7th grade. She has skinnier legs, and a longer torso.)

That was probably the mot obnoxious. When I was much younger (8-10) I got comments like: you could be a model if you lost your tummy. That was about the time I decided to ignore people's comments about my body.

i went to my grandmas house one day and we were talking..i tld her i had started working out and eating better..she said "good,now your body can match your beautiful face.".i was so upset that day.old people can be so mean but it only motivated me more.

A few weeks ago my husband and I were staying at his fathers.. and his father took me aside and told me that I smelled like a fat person and that it was difficult to be around me sometimes and to not take offense if him and his girlfriend and her kids back away from me when I'm talking to them or don't eat around me or won't be in the same room as me.

That hurt me worst of all. I have been called every name in the book and I'm sure a few that aren't and I was always a really good sport about it. But, I really respected that man (because I didn't have a dad growing up) and thought of him like a dad.

It still hurts me and when I think about it, it gives me more inspiration to lose weight and throw his nasty comments back in face with a rocking hot body

A few years ago, when I was in graduate school (and teaching courses at my college for money), I was doing some grocery shopping. A woman stocking the shelves came over to me and said, "Honey, you're pretty but if you don't lose weight you're never going to get a good job."

I just smiled and thanked her for the advice, but I was pretty horrified. I'm sure she wasn't trying to be mean--I've read the studies that say some aspect of pay/job availability is based on weight. But still: ouch.

Who do these people think they are? Who speaks to random strangers like that? Grrrrr the general public really annoy me! Besides there are very few very shallow jobs that base who they employ on weight and usually the weight they want their employees to aspire to can only be achieved through eating disorders. Who wants to work for nob jockeys like that anyway!

You're a good looking girl but if you lost weight you'd be beautiful.... Thanks (mother)

You're too fat for sex (ex boyfriend trying to "motivate" me to lose weight)

You're skin on your face is stretching so your pores look huge!! (mother again)

Omg!!!!!! What's wrong with people!?!? Lol. Thanks mom!

Boy, what kind of people have you grown up with and come across? I sure had my fair share on the school yard, but I always had a wicked remark and might have just smacked one or the other.
Maybe I come across scary, I just snarl and people back off before even trying to give me any good advice ^^
Also I have to say my family has always been super suportive and so has my best fgriend. If your best friend tells you you are fat and embarassing to be seen with, I would rethink the whole friendship - wtf?

You look like a skeleton. I can't hug you incase you break. I get it's a bit different but that's only because I suffer with anorexia. Some of the things people have said to me are horrible it makes me feel stupid. Just because I'm underweight it doesn't mean it hurts any less. I'm in recovery, not doing so well right now but I want to prove to myself that I am beautiful and I can be strong.

Two years ago, I had let myself go.

I hadn't seen my mother in six months. The first thing she says to me when she picks me up from the airport: "Holy s**t you weren't kidding when you said you gained weight!"

And, a month later, from my mother.

"You know, you're never going to look the way you want to. With how much you work out, you should be a model right now. Might as well give up."

And then from my aunt (who is 350lbs and knows nothing about nutrition)

"Honey, you have my genetics. Just give it up (about the exercise and eating properly). You're never going to be skinny."

I've lost 40lbs in the last two years and I've been working on toning my arms. I'm certainly no fitness model, but they don't look terrible. My aunt, the fat one, said to me last month "Wow. You have gorilla arms."

...I hate my family, lol.

I think I can beat most of these insults.....

On my Wedding day, yes my wedding day!!!! My future mother-in-lam said as I came down the stairs in my wedding dress ....

"Here comes the bride 40 foot wide" My whole day was ruined... I said nothing to my husband at the time as I did not want to ruin his day aswell, i did tell him afterwards and his reply " ah don't mind her, she did'nt mean it"
