Recommended Posts

So I am licensed by the Texas Lottery commision and I am a Bingo Caller! I love my job, I give away lots of money and make people happy! So I deal with A Lot of people, including a lot of overweight people. So I have this women that plays bingo, and has for years! Always feels compelled to say to me, " you're getting sooo FAT!" The first time she said it to me I was crushed and didn't know what to say. She has said this sort of thing a few times over the years and I am just floored! I just go and cry. So last night at work was by a different lady that has also been a long time customer, comes up to me and says, " YOURE GETTIN SO FAT, YOURE GETTIN UGLY!" I mean what do you say to that! Ok so let me stop and tell you the real shocker of it all, my coworkers are ALL WAYYY bigger then me, one weighs about 400 lbs, another one is about 350 lbs, my boss is about 200lbs, another one is about 200lbs. So! Tell me, why me? Why am I the one that gets all of the flack. I just went to the office and cried, I just can't wait to get my surgery done and start loosing and having the last laugh!

Best comeback I can think of is, Well I will lose weight but you will still have zero class.

Without being outwardly rude and nasty that is. Which is what I would really like you to say.

Just remember........most people are no darn good.

How about....."I am not fat or ugly. I am just allergic to you and I swell up."

I think someone has to be really mean and bitter to think and say something so nasty. Personally I would ask yourself why she says it to you? Maybe she sees a happy person and resents it so much that she says something to make you feel like crap and make herself feel better at the same time. It might be nothing about you at all but something to do with her, and that you are just a convenient target? Who knows. It takes no effort to say mean and horrible things, but it takes a lot of strength to take it and rise above it. :)

what is sometimes worse? people who would never give me the time of day "all of a sudden" want to strike up conversations and ask how my kids are...seriously. I was overweight it's not like I had an extra head growing out of my back...Here is something that My husband told me. You can always lose weight, she can never get better looking...

We love you...Karma is a $itch....:) You will do great. Use that person as your motivation to kick booty with the weight loss, that's what I did with mine!

@@Nikkidoodlebug It sounds like you have a game Full of a bunch of as*holes! My mom is very overweight and she calls bingo. I can't even Imagine someone talking that way to my mother! That's one bingo dauber that would have to be surgically removed from someone's anal regions if they ever did! I wish someone would! People are just plain rude! Props to you for not catching a case!

My ex husband would call me fat after our divorce. One time I stopped looked at him and said "I can lose weight and change that but you will always have a ugly heart". He never said it to me again.

My response to personal or unkind remarks is this:

"What an unkind, mean spirited thing to say. What ever would make you say something so unkind?"

"What a personal intrusive thing to ask. Whatever would make you ask that" ?

Those have worked for me for some time. I maintain my dignity, and unless they are really dense they get the message.

Feel free to use at will Sleevers.

      Thank you everyone for your well wishes! I totally forgot I wrote an update here... I'm one week post op today. I gained 15 lbs in water weight overnight because they had to give me tons of fluids to bring my BP up after surgery! I stayed one night in the hospital. Everything has been fine except I seem to have picked up a bug while I was there and I've been running a low grade fever, coughing, and a sore throat. So I've been hydrating well and sleeping a ton. So far the Covid tests are negative.
      I haven't been able to advance my diet past purees. Everything I eat other than tofu makes me choke and feels like trying to swallow rocks. They warned me it would get worse before it gets better, so lets hope this is all normal. I have my follow up on Monday so we'll see. Living on shakes and soup again is not fun. I had enough of them the first time!! LOL

      Still purging all of the larger clothing. This morning, a shirt that I ADORED wearing ended up on top. Hard to let it go, but it was also hard to let go of those habits that also no longer serve my highest good. Onward and upward!

      Well, tomorrow I go in for an impromptu hiatal hernia repair after ending up in the ER over the weekend because I couldn't get food down and water was moving at a trickle... I've been having these symptoms on and off for a few weeks but Sunday was the worst by far and came with chest pain and trouble breathing. The ER PA thinks it is just esophagitis and that the surgeon and radiologist are wrong. But the bariatric surgeon swears it is a hernia, possibly a sliding one based on my symptoms. So he fit me into his schedule this week to repair it! I hope he's right and this sorts it out. He's going to do a scope afterwards to be sure there is nothing wrong with the esophagus. Here's hoping it all goes well!!
