I would cry. Not because I'd be hurt in any way (because let's face it, we've all pretty much worked up a thick skin on this topic), but because I can. She's expecting that you're just going to shut up and take it like the good little fat girl you are becasue we all know that the fat girls have no feelings. Work up a good bawl and watch her squirm. Sure, it's passive aggressive to make her feel like crap because she made you cry, but she isn't exactly playing fair either. Make her look like a tool in public, go ahead, you have my permission.

hahahaha. Love this! I wish I'd done that; there were plenty of times!

I work at an assisted living facility and when I first started I over heard the residents in the diningroom say look how big she is and blah blah I cried and cried. But the PP was right you can change fat but you can't change ugly! So keep that in mind

When you were 400+lbs no one said anything because you were REALLY big and they kept it to themselves because they were scared to say anything to your face. They viewed you as someone with a disability.

Now at a more "normal" looking ~300 lbs, people feel more comfortable saying something, right or wrong.

When you hit 200 lbs, you'll probably get even more ribbing from people that don't know how much you lost.

When you are only 20-30 lbs overweight, it will be merciless, but semi-good natured.

I don't know why people are like this but many are. Ignore them, most people, unfortunately, are idiots. They have nothing to do with you or your health. Hitting your goals is the best revenge.
