What's the worst thing someone said to you?



Recommended Posts

I was out with friends one evening and a man approached me. He said I don't mind your weight I like big girls. I was blown away. First of all I am married and was not looking to hook up secondly, after that who on earth would have gone with such a person?

Also I was working in my flower garned one day when a car of teenagers drove by and one of them yelled hey big butt. I still hate working in the front yard.

reading this thread reminds of things that have been said to me. its great to have a place we can go to talk about these things!

this thread also reminds me of a movie i watched on monday its called "just friends" its a comedy about a boy that was overweight in high school and his best friend was a girl and he had a crush on her, he told her he liked her in her yearbook and it got into the hands of a jock and he humiliated the chubby guy in front of everyone, long story short he moved away lost all the weight, saw the girl again and she wants him! in my opinion he shoulda said.. um i dont think so.. but of course not! ya'll gotta see it, its actually really funny!

My big sister who is "normal size" introduced me to a lady that has been going to the gym where we go. (I hadn't been going lately because of a health issue with my hand) My sister said this is my little sister and that lady who is 5 foot nothing and well over 200 lbs had the audacity to look me up and down and then at my sister and said Yeah Right! I just looked at her and walked away. Then I teared up and my sister came over and I told her that was not pleasant introduction and she said we just have to ignore people like that. Well,I told her just give a few more months and I'll be a statuesque 5'10" very proud woman and she will still be overweight and rude! Why is it acceptable for people to say such hurtful things with no thought of it being rude?

I remember I had to make an appointment for a gall bladder ultrasound for a routine test. Anyway, I called my local hospital to set up the test; and when it came to giving my weight, it was "we can't do your test here, you are over the weight limit our table holds. You have to go to another hospital." They couldn't hold someone that was only FOUR POUNDS over the limit? :rolleyes What really chapped my behind was me wasting ten minutes on the phone only to be told I'd have to call somewhere else! Why didn't they tell me this stuff before wasting my time with the questions? Sheesh.

      Two months out from hiatal hernia repair.  Surgeon said to expect a lot more flatulence...something about the 'air' no longer being able to 'burp' out so comes out the other end.  That is my experience but have no understanding of why that swallowed air cannot be 'burped'. ???

        As I understand it since your stomach is smaller and not completely resting against your diaphragm anymore you no longer have the ability to "push" burps out as well. Plus, since its smaller and we don't digest slower the trapped air moves a lot quicker out of the stomach so its no longer available to burp out. Hence the other option for removal.

        Me too girl!! Are you in the full liquid diet right now? It’s sooooo hard!

      2. LadyVeteran1

        Not yet. I was told I only have to do 24 hours of a liquid diet. But I have my pre-op tomorrow so I’m going to confirm if I need to do longer.

      Down 33 lbs and slightly stalled, but I'm gonna reevaluate and push through. I started back to work last week after 2 years of being disabled due to mental health as well as my weight. It's a great job and I'm just so happy to have this opportunity at a second chance at life. Hope everyone is having their best journey ❤️ Together, we got this!
