worst comment ever made about your weight

omg i would of killed them! or at least gone fried green tomatoes on their cars lol! remember that movie? what kind of girls would be ok w a guy theyre messing with to talk to anybody like that! i would be disgusted

I have been reading all the posts for most of the day,,,and Im amazed how so many people can be cruel intentionaly.

I was about 10 when I overheard two of my aunts make comments about my cousin and I. We were the exact same size, same height, weight and coloring. Aunt Lucille said that its amazing how we look so much alike that she sometimes has a hard time telling us apart. Aunt Barb was,,,"oh I have no problem Angie is the fat one" huh? ok I might of had bigger feet then my cousin, but really?

I was 15yrs old,,I was always athletic, busy running from one sport to another. Then one day I couldn't move, couldn't sit, barely stand. I took myself to the Dr. (cause my mom couldn't be bothered) and this is when we found out I was missing 3 disc in my back. Some type of infection was disintergrating my discs. I was put on an experimental drug and pain relievers. I spent months laying on my back with my legs propped up. So going from super busy to nothing..I gained some weight,,,probably 25 lbs.
I remember clear as day my mother telling me to loose the weight, cause there was no way anyone could ever love me. I know that after almost 30 years i should be able to let this go, but that stuff stays with you. She made sure of that, cause i heard her say it a few times over the years and other little digs about being fat. Such a pretty face..but a big gut. Maybe you should do situps.
I loved the nick names too,,,being called Miss Piggy barely hurt..*snort
I ran away from home at 17, figured I had better chances of being ok on my own. Did a few years of councilling. Was feeling pretty good up until about 3 years ago.
about 10 years ago I had a few friends that we would all get together and have dinner parties. Was so much fun except there was one woman that was so miserable. She would make comments about being fat, I was about a 14-16 but i was happy with myself. Ok i could of been less weight but I also was very active,,coaching soccer and baseball. And I played on a woman's soccer team. You can't be a slouch playing soccer. Anyways she made some comment about how she couldn't understand how I was able to get and keep a man at my size but she 2-4 couldn't even attract them. We werent friends after that.

Someone on an airplane has asked for a seatbelt extender and they brought it to me in error. I was upset over this for a long time! I never needed one, but was very close to not being able to buckle them.

Good news is, I flew in february and had a lot of extra in the belt!

My mother-law says to me "Ashley you are looking thin.... or are you wearing a girdle?" . Another time (I was pregnant) She asked me how much I had gained and I told her at that point I hadn't gained but my doctor said I am probably losing weight while the baby is growing so it balances out. She says oh ok well you weren't thin to begin with.

I am 5'5 and at my heaviest I weighed 150 lbs. I was up to 170lbs during my heaviest pregnancy weight. Ugh! in-laws.

At my heaviest the worse comment was when my husband and I were in an argument, I wanted to start seeing a weight loss doctor, and he didn't want to fork out the money for it, he was wanting to spend the money on a game instead. In the end he said "You know if you just got off your fat lazy *kitten* and did something about it, you wouldn't be so fat." Yeah that hurt, but in his defense we both said some pretty not so nice things to each other.

Another time would be when my cousin whispered to my son to say "Tell your mom she's fat." My son was 4 and she was 9 I think. Anyways, that hurt.

After my son was born, he was like a month old, another cousin who is always thin, never been over weight a day in her life, she also had a baby, our son's are both a week apart. Well we were at Thanksgiving and my aunt's husband (ex-husband now) said to my cousin "You don't look like you ever had a baby, you just went right back to thin, you look so good." Then he looked at me and said "Sorry I can't say the same thing about you, maybe if you took better care of yourself. Sitting here stuffing your face isn't going to help with that, either." I wasn't my biggest, I was 180lbs, which wasn't thin but wasn't HUGE either for me. I'm a smart mouth though so I pop back off at people who make such ugly remarks, if they don't have something nice to say, why should I? I looked at him and said "You have a lot of room to talk. Just because you're old, isn't an excuse to be fat, either." He shut up really fast.

Now my current weight, I think the ugliest things I've heard is, my uncle who has only seen my progress on facebook, said that I photo shop my photo's, while yes I have photoshop and I do use it to edit photo's for my photography, I wouldn't know how to edit a photo to look like my current photo's I look like a total different person to me. Most my photo's are taken with my phone and transferred to facebook with my phone so no way I can photo shop them on my phone.

Then his daughter never can give me a complement and keep it as a complement, she says to me "You look great, but girl you still have stomach flab, you need a girdle, you might not think you do, but you do." EVERY TIME she gives me a complement she is sure to say that.

The faith people have piss me off, like "You got it off, but I'm sure you'll put it right back on." I bet I prove all you butt holes wrong!

I am a tall girl and I was talking with someone about how I wanted to lose weight so I can feel better. She then made a comment about how size 12 in jeans is so fat an anyone who is that big is just gross and it made me feel awful because I am almost to the point of fitting into size 12s again and to me, that was skinny. My ultimate goal is to fit into size 10s but its still considered "big" to so many people!

What made me feel horrible is when we were sewing and my friend's waist size was the length of the skirt I was making. It literally took half the amount of fabric to make her outfit than it did mine and she was complaining about how she had gained weight too!

My drunk grandmother when I was 12 ( and not fat) "Boy you're getting FAT!!)

At my cousins wedding, feeling very pretty in my gown... I caught the bouquet and the man that caught the garter asked how he was supposed to get it on me... the wedding coodinator said "well, just get it up as high as you can". I was a size 12 then. I was mortified and he didn't ask me to dance even though he was supposed to.

I absolutely ****ing hate it when people ask me if I've lost weight...I get it all the time. All they're doing is pointing out that I NEED to lose it. UGGHH

There are two instances that really hurt me and ironically they came from the same person, my mom, and at different ends of the weight spectrum.

When I was putting on my bridal gown my mother asked my weight (120 lbs) and she replied that she had weight 117 lbs on her wedding day. Until that moment I didn't know there had been a wedding day weight contest. I had lost the weight I felt I needed to lose and was looking and felt great. Talk about your mood killer.

Most recently, Monday of this week, I told my mother I had lost 15 lbs. Well how much do you weigh she asks? 171 lbs I answer. She responds Well you're still quite heavy. (Think to myself, thanks Mom.)

So it really doesn't matter I will never please her she will always will find fault. I know this not because of this weight issue because of other issues we have had. And yeah it hurts but I get over it eventually. It's not malicious on her part if it was I would speak to her about it.

As for strangers. I just walk away. And yeah some of those comments hurt too but I get over those too. Even the malicious ones because there is no point in talking to them I have no relationship with them nor want one based on their behavior. Water off a duck.

Back in high school, one cruel boy started calling me tree trunks (my thighs) and fat fingers. All his friends would stand and laugh. It got to the point that I would purposely walk out of my way to avoid his little posse.

I could maybe understand that kind of behaviour if I had done something/said something about him, but up until that point I don't think I had even spoken to him.

I thought of another one! i worked in the fashion industry in London for a year back in 2005. I would have to go to a lot of fashion shows and openings. We didn't have much money but the people I worked with seemed to have all the top designers but I was on a primark budget. but my style at the time was against the establishment so i could ge away with it a bit. it did start to get to me, because of one of the girls would offer me clothes from her wardrobe by the top designers but she would phrase it like "i would love to lent you my dress by McQueen but it would never fit you." Or "I could lend you my Zara Rhodes dress, her dresses fit people even your size" of course she would never lend me anything. And here is the kicker, I was 5'4" and 125 pounds! Hardly over weight! I think this was one of the many reasons I will never work in fashion again although that is what i am trained for. i can't handle the crazy!

My Grandmother wouldn't let me have a slice of cake with my cup of tea one day and then proceeding to get all annoyed at me when I couldn't finish the enormous dinner she put in front of me later that day!

I've also had my dads ex not believe what size I was when I lost weight before. That really hurt because it felt so pointless to have bothered and surprise surprise I put it back on!

My boyfriend said to me that my *kitten* was getting wider. He said this while I was getting dressed. Even though I've lost all the weight I needed to, I'm still uncomfortable with him seeing me naked.

I think it's time for a new boyfriend. That was nasty.

Why? You like people better when they lie to you?

There are a lot of mean comments people on this thread got about their weight, but also some comments were not that bad.

It just confirms that there is no "polite" or correct way to tell someone, not talking about strangers, but family and friends -- hell, even the person you are sleeping with! -- that if they want to stay/get in shape, now would be a good time to do so As a society we won't beat obesity by ignoring it. No matter how shocked that person is, it's a lot better than a blood pressure medication prescription or diabetes diagnosis...

Dad (as I got in the van and his drink sloshed): "I didn't know we had an elephant in the back!"

6th grade math teacher: "You're a WHALE!" (in front of my ENTIRE class)

"BF" in elementary school: "So what's it like being fat?" (I guess now she knows she we could probably share clothes now)

Those are the ones that have really stuck out to me. People that are supposed to be there for you cut the deepest.

People can be such idiots. I know how you feel, I used to get the pregnant comment too. It would get me down for days. You look beautiful in your photos so just keep focusing on the positive.

I was in a school play, and I won't say what I was dressed up as, but one of my teachers asked me what did I use for stuffing? When I said nothing, he turned and walked off, totally embarrassed. I think I went on a diet soon after that!
