Sometimes I Just Don't Like People.

So I've lost over 100 lbs. since my consult. And usually I feel pretty good about that. Granted, I still have 80 lbs to go, but I'll get there. 
Well, some friends are here visiting from out of town. I've been hospitable, pleasant even. I've opened my home to them even though they aren't technically my friends, more friends of the family. And it is MY home. I own it. No one but me. And I pay for the food, the lights, yada, yada...okay, I'm ranting. Sorry. Back to the story. I wasn't the one that invited them here, my extended family did. I've fed them for two days already and put up with their semi-rudeness even while trying to be nice. I thought that maybe they could return the favor tonight and maybe offer to feed me and my son or buy a pizza or just something. Anyway, at dinner the guy says to me "I'd try to get that bratwurst from you (I didn't have one and wasn't eating that, btw) but you're bigger than me." Well, I'm not. I may outweigh him by 25 lbs. TOPS. But he's a bit shorter and pudgy. I work out daily and am starting to finally see what a difference that makes. Pffft. People.

He was being a douchebag, making jokes at your expense. Sorry you had to put up with that. Hopefully they'll be gone soon so you can get back the serenity of a peaceful home.

Oh I hope so. And not a minute too soon. Yes, I used to be fatter and that's what they know of me. But I'm trying and that's mean. I would just never be that rude.

He sounds like a real asshat.  

Sorry you had to put up with that.  Good riddance to him

I think I'd be having an 'emergency' situation about to happen, with a post it with the directions to the nearest hotel as you 'have to be away'

 

that sucks!

Don't let this get you down.  You were extremely kind to bring them into your home. They are classless rubes who should be grateful for your hospitality. They have more problems than you can shake a stick at.

I'm so sorry you had to go through that!!! How awful.  You know what they say though, people make others feel bad in order to make themselves feel better.  Maybe he is feeling jealous of all your accomplishments and doesn't know how to deal with that appropriately.  I would send him packing!  Head up and know that you are the better person!!! Congrats on all your hard work!!! I can't wait til I can say I have lost 100 pounds!!!
