Congrats David on loosing 2#! Awesome!

I am loving these comebacks but truth be told the older I get the more honest I am trying to be with people when they make any kind of disturbing remarks. So, that being said I'd probably just say something like: "What do you mean by that?" or "Why would you say that to me?".

In a situation like that, I think I tend to kill people with kindness. I'd probably play innocence against a snarky attitude and ask why on earth they would suggest such a thing. :D

I really do need to remember this one. Lately, I've been dealing with a rather blunt and oftentimes rude person. I honestly don't know if she realizes how rude her comments are sometimes. The other day, she was talking about how difficult it was for her to find clothing for herself as she is "just as wide as she is tall." Then, she said "but, at least I don't have to try finding clothes for stick thin legs with very large hips." Uh....excuse me? Where in the heck did that come from? Now, I find myself very self conscious about something that never bothered me before. I really can't believe she said that out loud.

A great answer is "yeah, that would be TERRIBLE! I'm glad I don't have trouble finding clothes to fit me..."

Take her comment for what it is worth. She sounds like she needs to tear others down to make her feel good about herself, so it isn't about YOU. And if you were both at an ideal weight, it would be about hair, or makeup, or shoes, or SOMETHING...
