I can certainly understand you feeling hurt like this and that was a horrible thing for that man at the bar to say.

You seem unhappy with your weight and I'll be honest and say - I think you both need to start exercising. You also need to intensely look at the fat content of what you're eating. When I was in my late 20's my mother suffered a serious stroke. From that point on I became determined to watch my fat levels. I'm blessed with a fast metabolism so I don't watch it so much for losing weight -I watch it because I don't want to clog my arteries and die of a stroke.

If you watch carefully, reading labels and look at the way you cook and combine it with exercising - you will lose weight. I also highly recommend weight lifting, if your body can tolerate it. This is by far the fastest way to change your body. I recommend buying some loose weights and buying Kathy Smith's Fat Burning Workout - it's excellent because she has interval training with different levels. When you start to feel stronger, this will boost your self esteem. I know it hard to get started and the 1st 2 months is the hardest, but you can do it. Best of luck.
