Worst negative comment about your weight?

When I was a child, at a family gathering (relatives we didn't see that often) a great - aunt said, "Oh, you're the fat one!"

Also, my mother told me that I used to come home from school crying that someone called me "fat." I had completely blocked
that from my mind - don't even remember it. I knew I didn't like being fat, though!

I am so sorry you had to hear that from family members.

My ex blamed the bad wifi signal on me and said that call of duty was slow because I was a "big, fat signal blocker".

This same thing happened to me. One summer when I was in college I lost 50 pounds. People's reactions were very strange.
Men whom I worked with previous summers and hadn't seen me were all of a sudden talking to me and wanting to go out with me. It just made me angry more than anything. It's hard to face the fact that so many people are superficial. I've learned that real friends are those who love and appreciate you no matter what weight you are!

My daughter that's 4 asks why I have big boobs. And that daddies don't have them. :-/

The most damaging comment I ever got was when I was 14.

I was not fat at 14. I was 5'3", and about 127 lbs. All curves (larger boobs and hips run wide in my family). I was at my older stepsister's house, before her baby's funeral. Her dad, my first stepdad, whom I had not seen in a couple of years, was in the front room.

I went out to see him, and hoped that he would notice I was "all grown up"... he looked at me, and said, "Wow, you've gotten fat!" then he looked back at his son-in-law, and they started laughing their heads off.

I was mortified. Absolutely. I can still feel my little 14 yr old self struggling to maintain some dignity as I walked away.

beauty is on the inside.

I went to the beach recently (a big step for me), was having a lovely day, beach was pretty secluded, went for a swim and then decided to dry off by laying in the sun and reading my book. A guy walking past said to his friend "let's go down the other end, get away from the beached whale". He then looked straight at me and smirked. I was pretty pleased with my come back though "I'd insult you back mate, but I can see nature has already done it for me." Hehehe - I've always wanted to use that line!

HA! Love this response!

People tell me stuff like that and I just tell them that I am much prettier than them because while they walk around looking like a bean pole I have sexy curves and guys will usually think that is much more attractive. Don't let people get you down.

At my sisters wedding, where I was a bridesmaid, my aunt said "You look nice, you used to be really FAT didn't you?" She's not particularly thin herself.

Had forgotten about that comment for years but it came back into my brain the other day.

Not a comment to do with my weight but a girl from work told me I look nice when I make the effort (e.g. spent as much time tarting myself as she does, wearing too much make up and faffing with my hair). Good thing men like me whether I make that effort or not and I like me too!

For me it would have to be when I was getting dressed and looking in the mirror thinking to myself that on that particular day I looked Ok.....(ex) boyfriend walks in 'You do realise fat is not attractive?'

"££%£^&*&(*(*()*(_(^%^%$£$"$!"$4r3458242%£$^$%^ Makes me angry thinking about how rude some people can really be >_> This did infact really upset me but this was a few years ago now and has now become a running joke in the family.

"when are you due?" of course. Several times...

I think the worst was when my daughter was about 10 months old and her spanish speaking grandparents were visiting. They Appearently didn't realize I'd taken several years of Spanish in college. They are talking to my daughter and saying how much she likes to eat...then grandpa says basically what translates to you will be fat like your mother.

I think the drop dead stare made them realize I knew a little Spanish.

Fatass

Even if you lose weight you'll still be ugly so why bother ( ex husband, all kids in school from grades 5-12)


No one will ever want to date you if you're fat (dad)

How does it feel to be so fat and know that no man will ever **** you ( co worker from Africa. I promptly told her that all the African guys wanted me and asked her how it felt to be too skinny for an African man. That shut her up.)

Just kill yourself already. No one wants you (brother)

You're discusting, you're fat rolls are not sexy at all ( ex husband)

Where is your belly button ( said to me by a guy I had a one night stand with during nursing school)

Your tits are just huge and ugly. Real women's tits are between an a and a b. anything more than a handful and a mouthful is a waste. You're ugly ( another jewel from my ex husband)
The list goes on

OMG!!! i hope for ur sake these negative ppl r out of ur life for good!! u deserve so much better than all of that crap!!

I get told all the time,"You have a pretty face"...WTF how about the rest of me...I said that one time and I was told I was a blob! So I just walked away.........................

im down at 58 pounds now:] mine would be 1. damn you look good now but back in the day you was big...lol..funny now cause he's chasing after me cause he likes me but im taken...his lost but my gain:]

I think out of all these years what stands out in my memory and still hurts me to this day was a comment I heard when I was about 10-11 years old.

My family & I had gone out to Pizza hut with another "uncle" and "aunty" who were friends with my parents. (btw we Indians call everyone uncle and aunty even if we aren't related to them haha). We were having our pizza and enjoying it when my brother who was sitting next to me started pouring some parmesan cheese on his pizza when this "uncle" decided to tell my brother "oh if you keep pouring cheese like that on your pizza you're going to end up fat like your sister" and he laughed.

My eyes welled up with tears, I put my pizza down. My brother told the "uncle" he was being pretty rude and he should not have said that but that's all I heard. I excused myself and went to the bathroom and sobbed my eyes out. That comment didn't necessarily motivate me to change, I was only 10-11 for heaven sake! It did scar me for many years, where I was very very harsh with myself all throughout highschool and into university, despite constant reassurances by my parents and friends that I was fine. By highschool I had lost my baby fat and I was very active and I looked great but I never allowed myself to think of myself as healthy looking.

Anyway it's been many years now and as much as I would like to say that his comments don't bother me anymore, I always get so riled up when I hear others saying such comments to children / teenage girls about how they look, I stand up for them and tell them to shut their mouth. Arghhh people these days!
