    Kisa, I don't know what you look like, but other posters have said you are attractive. Its been said by enough people that the fat women were obviously jealous.

    What you should have done was...laugh. Laugh like you hadn't heard anything funnier in your life. Laugh and laugh and fallen off the lounger and pound the floor with your fist, and then gasp for breath while trying to utter something along the lines of..."stop...stop...you're killing me!

    Am I saying we should laugh at fat people. HELL no. I'm saying we should laugh at hypocrisy and irony

    A very fat girl called me a fat bitch once. I'm not skinny, but I'm not fat either so I just burst out laughing. Took her down a notch :3

      To be honest, I get sick and tired of heavy or even average sized people just bigger than me talking about how I have it so good and it's easy for me to stay thin because I don't eat.

      1st off I have high metabolism. Always have my entire life. I can't help it because theirs is slow. I have just as much trouble putting on weight as they do losing. Instead I'm made to feel bad so they can feel better.
      I get the same thing, including dirty looks. Not only is my metabolism still pretty high (people kept telling me when I turned 30, that it would really slow down, but I'm 10 years past that now and....yeah), I come from a family that is naturally slender.

      I also get pissed off when I make a comment that I really need to get back in shape, I immediately get told I don't need to lose weight? I'm not trying to lose weight, I just want to put things back where they came from!

      2nd if I didn't eat I wouldn't be alive. I eat small portions throughout the day. I don't eat gigantic breakfast, lunch and dinners. I might not eat breakfast but I will eat a decent lunch and dinner. Funny thing is there's "new" diets out there that talk about eating in small portions throughout the day and/or skipping breakfast. Basically something I've been doing my whole life but apparently I don't eat. These dietitians make like it's some new innovation which it totally isn't. All it is is eating in moderation.
      That's exactly how I eat. People don't seem to realize though, for some reason, that they do see you eating all throughout the day. I can and have put away an amazing amount of food. Then I get the "hollow leg" comments....

        Wow, nothing wrong with you, it was all those two 'women.' bitches

        Sigh, wish I could wear something like that. I'm big and I cover-up until the last second I get into the water!
        Fixed it for you

        On a personal note, I do happen to think that people who don't have the figure for bikini's should not wear them. Hence, I don't

        But that is no call to make nasty comments in public about someone. Wait until they are out of view and earshot . . . or better, until you've gone home, then gossip away!
        They say that God only gives us what we can handle. Apparently, God thinks I'm a bad ass.

          Yep, they were jealous, I've no doubt you look great in a bikini Kisa, as said, haters gonna hate. They're bitching because they look like Walruses in string bikini's, probably.

          L2: *nods* No one wants to see that.
          Not on those two at least, If I were there I'd probably tell them to shut up I'm trying to enjoy the view

            Sounds like two people are jealous of you. Ignore them, and giggle at the thought of them being too slow to outrun the zombies, while you run off like a gazelle .

                  I deal with this too and it infuriates me. Everytime I see my mother she acts like I never eat. Even my MIL has made comments about my body size. Complete strangers, wait staff at the restaurants I frequent, and god knows who else, ALWAYS make what I consider to be nasty comments about my weight and body size. The fact is, I eat what I want, when I went, and I eat a fair amount of high calorie foods. But since I have a fast metabolism, no matter how much I eat, I don't gain weight.

                  Sometimes I feel like a real freakazoid because I feel like I'm the only woman on the planet who actually wants to gain weight. I almost want to buy one of those fat suits and wear it out in public so I don't have to keep listening to people make rude comments about me being so skinny.

                  Now I have a small frame, but I wear a 34D bra. A "friend" of my husband's (female by the way) once said that I have "itty bitty titties," which for my body size, is not true at all. Bu this girl has like 40DDs and walks around showing as much tit as humanly possible without getting arrested for public indecency. But since her tits are the only thing she has going for her, I think she's just jealous of me.

                  I'm sorry, but I consider people making comments about skinny people as bad as people making fun of overweight people. It all needs to stop.

                    I decided to post this because I think it's rude to talk about someone who's right there, within ear-shot. They kinda made me feel bad
                    And I'm sure that's what they were aiming for. I suspect they were feeling self-conscious about how they looked in their swimsuits, and rather than finding a constructive means to feel better about themselves (like finding an attractive and well-fit swimsuit like my one heavier sister does, because she actually knows how to dress to best flatter her figure), they decided that they'd make themselves feel better by tearing down an easy target. Unfortunately, due to your size and similar swimsuit, you were the easy target.

                    I say ignore them. Act like they don't even exist, and then they don't get the satisfaction of seeing you hurt by their insensitivity.

                          Kisa, you have a cute figure. Yeah, you are a bit pear-shaped, and there's NOTHING wrong with that. It's very feminine. (I'm solid, like a tree trunk ). Those women were very, very obviously totally jealous. If I were at the pool, I'd look at you and be happy for you. But that's because, despite my imperfections, I'm happy with myself. Those women very obviously weren't.

                              You most definitely are not. There are many, many women - and men - who are underweight, even in first world countries where food is plentiful. You may - or may not - have noticed that when I give eating or exercising advice, I attempt to phrase things as 'will move towards your body's natural correct weight', rather than 'will lose weight'.

                              And I agree with the second comment of yours that I quoted.

                                I don't get the dirty looks but whenever I'm around friends I generally don't eat all of my food in one sitting. I'm notorious for taking some home in carry out containers. Just last week or so I had a group of friends ask me how many burgers I had while we were playing poker. I told them it was the same one as before I just hadn't finished it. Queue the comments. I just smiled and said I can eat how I want and as much and not have to worry. A few made some self deprecating comments about themselves but it was all in good fun. One heavier set friend is now trying my eating habits and says he feels better and it's working for him. I never understood having ALWAYS to finish food every meal. It's seems kinda gluttonous to me.

                                I've gotten past being irritated anymore. That's what people want us to feel and I've in turn embraced my svelte size Whenever anyone makes subtle snide comments I just say what I mentioned to Pagan about me being able to eat as much as I want and not have to worry. That usually makes people say "see you're lucky"!!!!!. They'll never understand until they can change their own eating habits and experience the benefits.

                                34D is no where near itty bitty titties and that's just pure simple fact. She was just being a retard and sounds like she was trying to make herself feel better by talking down on your assets. I'd say she's jealous too. Like you said her bigger breasts are the probably the only thing she has going for her. When people are jealous they tend to try to put you down to soothe their insecurities and make you feel some of the misery they're feeling. I will not give misery company.
