While walking into town yesterday a man in a car called me fat. It really upset me. I am a size 14 so not that fat.

Hi SandyH77 , some people are just so mean. As someone who really is FAT, I would love to be as small as you but I know how much it hurts to be insulted.

Years ago I used to say I may be fat but you are horrible, the difference is I can lose weight :)

Nowadays I don't say it out loud but I still think it :)

Good Luck

That is what I did think. I did want to say something but did not want further abuse .

Hi SandyH77. An idiot will always be an idiot!! Turn his nasty comment into a positive to spur you on to even better results this week. 😉

How rude! Hope you didn't take it too seriously Sandy. Just shows how ignorant some people can be. I suppose it happened too fast for you to have time to think of a witty put-down reply. (I usually think of good ones when it's too late).

As you say, you are not fat and at size 14 you are probably smaller than the majority of the population. Cheek of the man!! Keep smiling EJ

The famous phrase that sprung to mind as I read this was, "We do not see things as they are, we see things as we are." I really think the issue is with the man who probably wishes he was thinner than he is so is noticing the shape of others. I really doubt at size 14 you are f*t. Start noticing how beautiful you are and how many people love you for you and forget the one jerk who said such an awful comment.

Hi SandyH77,

Beggars belief that someone would say that ,he'd be better keeping his eyes on the road.sounds like he shouldn't even be on the road .

Good luck .

That is disgusting and rude that he said that to you, what a horrible person he is!!!

Don't take this to heart and ignore rude comments.

You are doing great, best of luck :)

He is beneath contempt. Try to put it behind you but try not to be upset. That's what he was trying to make you feel .Dont let him.💐D

At size 14 you are definitely not fat! His comment says way more about him as a person than anything to do with you. He probably is miserable and wants you to feel the same way. It's so good that you've voiced your upset but know that you're better than that stupid and sad man! Pop on some beyonce, have a good dance and know you're great x

What a nasty little cretin! Probably one of life's failures who's only happy when they're being spiteful to others. Please take no heed of such a low life. Best wishes to you.

Blow it off. He is stupid and shallow. You must not even be that big!! He's a loser!!
