How to get over fat shaming comments?

Question

I weigh 120 pounds. I’ve gained a bit of weight from having previous body dysmorphia that I’ve been working on. Went from 95-100ish pounds at 24 years old to 120 at 26 years old. However today, a man at my job(I work around all men unfortunately) made a comment about how I’m fat and have gained weight. It kind of triggered me because I’ve never had someone just outright tell me that I’m fat before. My brain logically knows that I’m not fat. Have I gained weight? Yes. But now those negative thoughts are creeping back in. Have any of you ever experienced this? How do you shake comments like this and not let it trigger you?

Answer

Please 😂 I would have told him when he can grow a 🍆 over the size of 2 inches then he can call me fat.

Answer

Unless you are a toddler who weighs 120 pounds, that is not fat. 
When I was 120 pounds, I was skin & bones & was consistently called anorexic & made fun of. 
Laugh at these pathetic types of people because that’s all they are.

Answer

You go to HR and tell them this coworker is making comments about your body. That’s NOT okay.

Answer

I think you should speak to a therapist.

Answer

“that’s fucking rude” and repeat until they stop talking

Answer

120 is FAR from fat unless you're 3 ft tall. At 5' 2" if I was 120 again I would be skinny as hell like I was when I was a teen. There is no way that anyone weighing 120 lbs is fat. I highly suggest therapy to help retrain your thought process to counteract all of the pigs in your life.

Answer

Well for me 120 would be my goal supermodel weight and I’d be a size 0-2. It would be pretty much impossible for anyone to look “fat” at that weight and I’m sure￼ you look beautiful and healthy. Tell that small-dicked prick to go dump his insecurity elsewhere. People can be so disgusting. Please don’t let this get to you 💓

Answer

That’s almost 55kg you’re not fat at all by any means! I would have turned round and told him she look in the mirror and f#*! up.

Answer

I remember being 120 pounds in high school thinking I was fat but also only being 5”4. Now I want to go back and punch myself in the face for being stupid. I’m 133 and I know I’m not fat by any means now!

Answer

I weighed 120 lbs in high school and was skin and bones. People constantly told me to eat a sandwich, etc. Moral of the story is: you’re never going to please people. They’ll always look for something to call you out for because they’re insecure in their own skin.
