EVIL comes in many forms....



Recommended Posts

I hate that this happens to us but it has become more common than we would like to believe. Although I appear strong at the time I'm called a fat bitch, it tears me up inside.

To the jerk offs calling me names, I have a myriad of comments:

"I may be fat but you're and asshole and I can always diet!"

"If you think I'm fat now you should have seen me a year ago."

"Sorry about your penis."

And of course my fave:

"Kiss my ass you MF!"

Guess I'm a little sick of the jerks myself. If it makes you feel any better, I bet he dates fat girls. You know we do tend to be the hottest things out here. He really just wanted you and knew he couldn't have you and it pissed him off.

Hang in there kid. I can't say it will get better right away but just know that you reap what you sow. He will soon have a problems times 3 due to his behavior. I believe in you and think you should keep plugging along. We shall overcome, one day!

Wow.....wonder what goes through the stupid head of the person who wakes up next to him every morning?

How nasty, sorry you had to experience that. I've been laughed at by men and women because of past appearance but never verbally attacked like that.....so sorry.

"Your Mama" always seem to strike a cord, especially if you can say it calmly with one brow lifted, then smile.

I hate stuff like this. I had one where these 2 little kids were saying all sorts of stuff, using most of the same words your offender used. The worst part was that their mother didn't do anything about it and just told me to ignore them.

I always think in my head about what I might say the next time something like that comes up.

Today there was a truck that drove by me as I was walking that honked a bunch of times. I have to wonder if he and his friend were doing that cuz I'm overweight, or because they thought I was cute, lol.

I'm so sorry that you had to listen to some simple minded person. Please don't let it get you down, I know that's easier said than done, but if you let it get you down then he has won and there is no way in H... that he deserves to win. "HUGS"

And other people wonder why we are fat. Just because we're bigger than other people doesn't mean we can't be hurt. As someone said before, hope he burns in hell. Linda

I am only 20 lbs from goal but still regard myself as a big person because if it wasn't for the band I would be....and I never want to lose sight of how it use to be, it helps me to stay where I am today.

As a big person it hurts so much when these small minded ignorant creatures treat us like that. Why, because of size, do they think we are so inferior to them and deserving of that kind of treatment. Why do we get treated like second class citizens just because of size?

My overeating or choice of foods has never threatened anyone else's life...so what's the big the big deal. I never lashed out like that to a smoker who would blow smoke right in my face when sitting at bar or in a restaurant....but I would have more reason to then what this guy just did to you.

I could go on and on but this A-hole doesn't deserve my effort.

I'm with Spydr. I once had a lady call me a fat a$$ and I just turned and looked at her and smiled. I then told her that I might be fat, but it was her I felt sorry for because at least I could lose weight and what was she going to do about her ugly face.

Sorry you had to put up with that friggin' "man" but I think Bullwinkle had the best comeback! :clap2:

I have often said I would love to have a "rammer" car. Would have come in very handy in that situation. Don't let him get to you. He's obviously not even worth it. What an unhappy ol' "man" he must be.

first of all hugs to you!

secondly, i am reminded of fried green tomatoes when kathy bates rams her car into the one belonging to the teenie boppers! you may be fat but you have more insurance! :)

next, after watching one of my favorite tv shows, my name is earl, this man will be bitten in the ass by karma! one day he will do this to someone who is not as nice as you are and he will be beaten to a pulp, you will drive up in your truck, at your goal weight and be able to spit in his face!

      Saw my PCP & officially started my 6 month supervised diet 07/26/24. She just told me to eat less carbs & sugar, use the air fryer and not fry my foods in grease, and to try to walk 30 minutes 3 days a week & if I can't do that (and I cannot), to walk 10 minutes daily. Told me to walk fast enough that my heart rate is raised.  She didn't give me a number as far as calories though. A year or so ago I was doing low carb/sugar free and keeping my calories at 1800 or below. She said I should up my cals to 2000 at that time, so that's what I'm shooting for now.
      Hubby walked with me today. He's in pretty bad shape so I was surprised he wanted to. We walked down the gravel road at a pretty good pace (for us LOL). 10 minutes walking and my heart rate was 115bps according to my Fitbit and 125bps according to his pulsometer. Either way, it was elevated and I was breathing hard. Doesn't sound like a lot, but it's a start. We'll do it again tomorrow. 😁
      I should be hearing from the surgeon soon. She said if I didn't, to call him next week. Since I HAVE to do the 6 month diet & that's going to put me into January by the time it's done, I'm hoping the surgeon will let me do all my testing in January. I don't want to do it all now and have my deductible get met, only to have to pay the deductible again in January or February for my surgery. Praying that things go the way I hope. 🙏

      Factors Affecting the Growth of the Alternative Sweeteners Industry:
      Health Consciousness: The increasing awareness among individuals about the health issues linked to high sugar consumption, such as obesity, diabetes, and cardiovascular diseases, is supporting the market growth. Consumers are becoming more health-conscious and seeking products that can provide sweetness without the negative health effects associated with sugar. This shift in consumer preferences is leading to a greater demand for low-calorie and natural sweeteners like stevia, monk fruit, and erythritol. These sweeteners offer the added benefit of having minimal impact on blood glucose levels, making them suitable for diabetic and health-conscious individuals.
      Technological Advancements: Innovations in the production and formulation of alternative sweeteners are impelling the market growth. Advancements in biotechnology and food science are leading to the development of high-intensity sweeteners with improved taste profiles and functional properties. Innovations in fermentation processes enhance the production efficiency and quality of natural sweeteners like stevia and monk fruit. These technological improvements are making alternative sweeteners more appealing to both manufacturers and consumers. Enhanced stability, solubility, and sweetness intensity allow these sweeteners to be used in a wide range of products, ranging from beverages to baked goods.
      Consumer Trends and Preferences: Evolving consumer trends and preferences are playing a significant role in driving the alternative sweeteners market. The growing demand for clean-label products, which are healthier and free from artificial ingredients, is offering a favorable market outlook. Consumers are increasingly seeking natural and plant-based sweeteners, aligning with broader trends toward plant-based diets and veganism. Besides this, there is an increase in the demand for low-calorie and sugar-free alternatives that support weight management and overall wellness. Food and beverage companies are responding to these trends by innovating and expanding their product lines to include options sweetened with alternative sweeteners, thereby catering to changing tastes and health concerns of modern consumers.
