Worst negative comment about your weight?

Nothing lately, but about 60 less pounds ago, my Mom told me if I didn't tuck my shirt in then my gut wouldn't stick out too much. As much as that hurt, nothing hurt worse than having the man I was with for 15 years stop wanting to have sex with me while he became addicted to internet pornography.

Not long ago I was coming out the car in a parking lot and the guy who was sitting in his car to the right of me decided to roll down his window and call me all sorts of names and made some comment about I had to be a virgin, I was too fat for a guy to "keep it up."

I think the worst ones came from doctors, though. I have a joint disorder and have gone into the ER over the years with pain only to be told I was making it up or it was my weight. One particular time I went in with pain in my calves, I had torn the muscle weeks before in high school band camp from being made to walk backwards on my toes for hours and ended up not being able to even walk the 3 blocks home after school from it. Doctor came in the room, squeezed one calf, then says there's nothing wrong with me, I'm just fat. I was 13 at the time.

Another bad one, I'm in a long distance relationship and used to attend a forum about them and I had spent 3 days with my boyfriend and we didn't ever leave the hotel room. When I told the forum about the trip, one girl blatantly told me, "well he's obviously embarrassed to be seen with you, that's why you were forced to stay in the hotel. He was just too nice to tell you that you were too fat." Nevermind we're still together a year later...

There's one I kind of get annoyed by: "you have a pretty face." I kinda feel like people think that's the only compliment they can give on my appearance or just a way to say something nice and not outright say "you're fat".

But generally I get a lot of straight up, "you're fat" or some variant. I just look at them and point out an obvious fact about them and then ask if they want to play Captain Obvious some more or can I just go about my business.

A few years ago when I was at my heaviest (about 215 lbs) some people that I didn't know slowed down their car & opened the window so that they could yell "fat b***h" at me as I was walking down the street. Ouch.

I've had this... several times over. It hurts so much, it comes from nowhere and slaps you in the face, it's humiliating. The only way to rationalise it, is to think that if they see a girl in a short skirt they will call her a slut or something, because they are cretins and generally awful people.

An old boyfriend used to tease me by calling me "Tubby" everytime I ate.

Seconding that. I've had people stalk me in stores (namely the grocery store) and either jab and run or chase after me and spew insults. Twice I've had people try and literally run me over, laughing about how they wanted to see "how far the fat ***** would smear" on the road.

Unfortunately a lot of people grow up with twisted morals or a sense of entitlement that's as false as bleached blonde hair. These are the folks we should pity, because with minds and mouths like theirs, they'll be lucky to get through life without someone doing to them what they do to us just to nail them in their coffins.

so sad that this huge post is mostly from ladies. very sad

maybe I don't remember well but here are 2- i swear my grandmother's 2 favorite nursery rhymes were 'this little PIGGY went t market' and 'higglety pigglety my FAT hen' and i swear she relished speaking them out loud in front of me and my mother.

Once, in college,, middle of night at mcdonalds..i placed my order, the cashier looked up and noticed i was last in line, reached under the counter and tossed me a mcdonald's calorie guide. if it had stopped me I'd be 30 years ahead of the curve..

Are we having a baby?

Several ppl asked me if I was Pregnant. I was in my late 40's. I cried.

A nurse practitioner told me to stop eating doughnuts because I was going to be morbidly obese and dead by the time I was her age...then she poked my arm and looked at me in disgust and said oh yeah you DEFINITELY need to tone ..... p.s. I don't eat doughnuts BTCH

I used to get called Prego! !! :sad: I seriously will not buy the spaghetti sauce because of the name!

No one has ever said anything mean to my face but when I started gaining all this weight I could see the looks on the faces of old friends hadn't seen me in a while. I gained 50lbs so it was really obvious.

I have this friends who always calls me thick but it never bothered me too much. He called me that when I was as at my lowest of 130lbs so I think he just said it to get on my nerves lol.

When I got out of Navy A school I went home for vacation. I had gained about 30 lbs because of the Depo shot. My brother looked at me and said, "OMG If I was your size, I would shoot myself."

I don't think I ate the entire time I was home!

When I was 9 months pregnant with my son (who carried as far forward as he could) I worked at a car rental place in the airport. I was about to burst I was so pregnant and was scheduled to have my son 3 days later. As I was walking (waddling) through the airport to clock in I heard a woman say "poor thing, she is about to go any day now" and her husband turns and looks at her and says "honey, I think she is just extremely fat, not pregnant." And then they continued to have a conversation on who was right, the woman defending me but still. I walked into our office crying. I just wanted to make the guy eat his teeth.

Used to be nicknamed penguin because im fairly short (5'7") and used to be fairly overweight. Nickname stuck though lol.

My grandpa always says "you better stop eating or your legs will give out. "
