Today was the first time I've ever been called a fatty.

Sheesh did he think he was being funny? What a ****!
I say, plot a way to take sweet..sweet revenge out on that DB. How DARE he?!
That man clearly does not love himself or he would not need to find ways to take it out on other people.
You are beautiful
You are wonderful
You are kind
You are a better person than he ever will be
and he's lucky that none of us know him, or he'd be in some hot water.

That kind of thing just HURTS so much. When I was a kid, there were some boys that would tease me (i've always been chubby, until college) and call me all kinds of things. The worst was Fatas*. I still think it's the worst thing you can say to a person. It still makes me angry and want to kick things when I think about how they treated me and the things they said. Some people can be so cruel.

What an ignorant *kitten* :grumble: I don't think you're fat, and your weight is fixable, but his stupidity? Not so much. If he makes another callous comment, speak up.

I'm sure he's immature and putting someone else down makes me feel better. I feel for you I work with a male coworker that's about the same way. But he's so young and immature I just dont talk to him, needless to say he hasnt ever said anything like that to me or he would be looking for his teeth.

But sometimes people like that arent worth the effort.

When your skinny; he's still going to be ugly.

What a horrible person.
If you can get any positive from this situation, use it as motivation, because it's true, you can fix fat, but you can't fix ugly.

So when he's still an ugly, horrible person, you'll be a gorgeous, shapely, powerful woman. He'll feel SO STUPID!:bigsmile:

Just keep at it and he'll be sorry.

In my entire life of being overweight (roughly ten years now), I've never been blatantly told that I'm fat. Curvy, yes. A little chubby, yes.

A male co-worker of mine was joking around about craving some cookie dough, and when a female co-worker of mine asked what we were talking about, he said, "Don't worry about it, (name), I'm talking to a fatty about something."

I feel numb. I can't even cry.
I feel like saying, screw you.

You can fix fat. You can't fix ugly.

It's not in my nature though. Why bother wasting my energy?
I feel so ugly now though. I feel like everyone sees me as this walking pocket of fat.

I want to just get on the treadmill and run forever.

Just put it in your pocket and save it for later. People are ignorant, don't let it bother you...as my husband says "be a duck and let it roll off your back like a drop of water".

Be a duck

Did he apologize?! I will come kick his @ss for you!

You can lose the weight but he can't have a total personality transplant.

He is an idiot. By your ticker, you are 190. I remember when I was in college and weighed about 190. I was out waliking with my girlfriends. A guy drove by and said, "We'll take all of y'all except the fat one." Ouch. I still remember it to this day. I used it to motivate me to get thin. And I did (later I gained a ton, but that's another story...lol).

Hang in there and try not to let him get you down!!

How stupid! Some people say the dumbest things without a moment of thought... and for some reason co-workers think they can say whatever they want because they "know you" better. Ugh. Based on how you described it, it doesn't sound like he meant it to be hurtful. He might have just said fatty because of the conversation topic- still, idiot.

I dunno, but based on your photo you don't come across as "fatty" to me. Not that it matters but I'm just saying... Fat you can change, but when your an idiot, your screwed. Consider yourself the lucky one.

:noway: i swear...people are so horrible!!

Next time you see him tell him that "you could get rid of your big *kitten* but he cant get rid of his dumb *kitten*"

This! Don't take it personally - karma is a b****, and you can bet it'll be coming back on this guy.

People that don't feel good about themselves...like to hurt others!! Just move on from it!

What an *kitten*. I would have kicked him in the nuts & called him a girl.

you should have said " and I'm talking to an idiot about the same thing" and smiled and walked away....

YESSS - perfect!

...I dunno. I think there's a distinct possibility that he does not actually think you're a fatty. I don't think any friendly coworker having the jibes with you would say something like that meaning it. I think he was probably just talking about the fact that you guys were talking about gobbling up the cookie dough. Men talk that way to other men, and he probably felt so comfortable that it just slipped.

Hurtful, yes, but I doubt he meant it.. or would have said it if he genuinely thought you were a fatty.

What a douche bag!! I would like to throat chop him for you!! Please don't let people like that get you down. They tear others down so that they feel important. It's disgusting how people like that work. DO NOT let him control your emotions! You can do this girl!!
