worst comment ever made about your weight

My mother-in-law once "banned" me from the garden swing saying I was too fat and I'd break it by sitting on it.


Charming eh.

Well, I actually broke the swing. Not joking. I was mortified. o_0

Oh, and I my parents had to pay for a replacement and made me work for the money.... and they wonder why I self image issues.

' you are pretty...but you would look so much better if you could lose some weight '
- some random guy sow me running - ' run you fattie,lose that weight '
me talking with a friend about why guys are almost never hitting on me - ' well they are just interested in looks '
-some random guy on the street - 'omg you are so ugly'
-some guy talking about me - ' well she is really nice but she is so unattractive '
-one really rude guy - ' i knew you..you were pretty before...you got so fat...have you looked in the mirror lately... you're a fat cow now '
oh and lots of insults when i was in primary school

So awful. What foul people. I'm sorry for the pain these people caused you. You are adorable. That is my fear the exercising insult. But thankfully it hasn't happened and like you, it wouldn't stop me. People have such hate and venom in them, for what?

Even on these boards people judge, belittle and criticize each other. I have been pretty fortunate to only be accused of being pregnant and in elementary school, which set the stage for me not begin good enough, the most popular boy in school called me a bear. Funny how we all remember with such detail these horror stories and so many of them. I wonder how many of these people would behave differently knowing the harm.

I have found such awesome support and solidarity here among my friends at MFP, and it makes all of the difference. It's all up hill from here doll! It's work, but it feels really good to be working towards making MYSELF healthy and caring for Me first.

After repeatedly cheating on me and then making an agreement to only sleep with me if I put on porn of skinny blonde chicks or held a porn magazine while we were having sex, my ex said, "If you weren't so fat and disgusting, I wouldn't want to sleep with other women. If you looked like this {he ripped out and threw a Playboy centerfold at me}, I'd never stick my d**k anywhere else. But YOU DON'T... count yourself lucky that you get any at all Lard *kitten*!"

this made me cry

I just... wow. Honey I am so sorry that jerk treated you that way. I'm actually mad for you, I don't even know you and I'd love to find him and teach him a lesson that would leave him unable to father any children much less raise his light switch. You are so much better than he will ever hope to be, I hope you know that. No one deserves that no matter what they look like.

Sending a hug your way.

I must be one of few who receives looks rather than a verbal insult. I go places and people look at me like I have a third eye or something. From men, they stare way longer than they should and women give the "body check". Of course, it could be because I'm also 5'10".

Last time I did receive a verbal insult, I was about... 14? I was out with a cousin of mine who never weighs more than 105 lbs. and I was chubby at the time. There were two guys sizing us up and we could hear the whole conversation. Long story short, they said that I was "way too big. Maybe lose 50 lbs. and I'd consider."

Funny thing about it is, both of them were not even remotely attractive to me.

Truth be told, I have heard it ALL over the years and have super thick skin. There's nothing anyone can say about my appearance that will upset me, not even from people I care about.

There have been many rude comments but the one that always stands out as the most humiliating..The odd thing is that when this happened I wasn't even close to my heaviest weight....My mother and I were out for a walk one evening when this young guy yells from across the street...."Holy **** its a beached whale! Someone get a gun and put that Orca out of IT's(like I wasn't even a person) misery!"

that i should try to gain, when in reality im not even that thin. if i even mention the word exercise i get threatened to be thrown into a psychiatric ward. you'd think i would take it as a compliment, but its an impediment to my goals. its not always about being thin. its about being healthy.

This is probably not much good news but they do a psychiatric evaluation on you before you're admitted or to prevent from admitting someone who really doesn't need that kind of help. I learned that a couple years ago when after two psychiatrists threatened to throw me in one, I figured I'd go admit myself instead but they said there was nothing wrong with me that couldn't be fixed by having a competent psychiatrist. The only time that's skipped is if you're brought into the ER and they determine there you need to go.

I'm sorry the people saying that don't understand the difference between what you're trying to do and what they perceive it to be, you deserve a lot more support since that's a hard thing to go through.

"Why not just kill yourself, you fat ugly troll."

That is so cruel! I am sorry..
I can't stand people like that.. The last time some was rude to me in an exercise class bc I accidentally steppe on her mat and apologized she told her partner she didn't even know why I was there.. I told her fat girls don't need to be reminded that we're fat. Be happy I didn't pee on your mat as fat girls aren't quite house trained you know.. She never said another word.. I would like to point out she couldn't keep up with the class. ~smirk~

SO many...had just about every insult possible on my weight but I remember when I was in school, probably about 14 a boy asked me if I'd eaten another person because I was so fat and the whole class laughed. Mortifying.

A taxi driver asked if I was pregnant once. And my mum always gives me clothes saying they're too big for her but they'd fit me!
