Perhaps they were too shocked/embarassed but i think an Apology should have been the bare minimum. Not sure what to suggest. Have they been kinder towards you since then, perhaps? Apart from their fat jokes, did their behavior change in any significant way? Please do not give up. Hugs. Sending many safe, warm hugs to BOTH you, @jesyka, your Family, your Friends and ALL of your Loved Ones! Keep fighting and keep rocking NO MATTER WHAT HAPPENS, OK?!

I think that maybe they were shocked and they didn't know what to say, so instead they made other jokes and acted like nothing happened. I'm going to a movie tomorrow with that skinny friend and one other friend.

I hope that was the very last time that she'll make a fat joke, comment, mention calories, or look me up and down again. I might just end the friendship if she keeps on doing that.

What I really don't get it why she kept on looking me up and down for the last two or three years. It was very rude! And they ALL knew that I had bullimia years ago!

It almost seems like that woman was trying to fat shame me into loosing weight! I could've and should've talked to her privately a long time ago, but I stupidly listened to bad advice from other people to just ignore her as she'll get upset at me if I say anything and not talk to me anymore. Ugh!
