What is a good comeback for when someone says "You are so skinny"?

Question

OK, so I am sick of fat people telling me "You are sooo skinny, you need to eat!" The fact of the matter is I am not rude enough to say, "Well, you are so fat," so, I need a good comeback. I do eat alot, but I also exercise and eat right... What should I say to there rude people?

Answer 1

i'll start eating when you stop eating!

Answer 2

Thanks! I feel great knowing I'm so healthy!

Answer 3

look at them(fat ppl)  from head to toe... and look into their eyes and say "thanks" sweetly...

hehe...

they'll get what u're trying to tell them probably....

action speaks louder than words....

Answer 4

"I'm skinny because your fat @ss ate all the food."

Answer 5

Your're right, that is sooooo rude for people to say and none of their business.  For a comeback, how about, "I exercise and eat right, and hey, I like the way I look, so what's it to you, my fat friend?"   lol... :)

Answer 6

girl, you should be proud to be skinny!! it doesnt matter what they say, they're just jealous that you're not an elephant like they are.

just smile, give them the once over, and walk away. that should get the message across.

Answer 7

i'm a plus sizer, and i'm sorry if there are nasty women from 'my kind' that puts a negative prespective to us...

but i could share a little secret.

i hate it when someone skinny looks at me from top to bottom, and eyes wide open, while lingering a second or two at my lumps of fat e.g. tummy or arms, and says, oh wow you look great! *obviously they were being mean booo-hooo!*

but you go girl! hope it helps~

Answer 8

"I wouldn't be this skinny if you didn't eat all the freakin' food!"

Ooh burn :D

But if your not looking to be mean, just say, "I do eat, just in the right way. And then I go exercise. So thanks for noticing! I guess my work has paid off!"

Good luck!

Answer 9

Well thank you so much for the compliment, no one has ever said that to me before. Turning it around on them is the best medicine.

Answer 10

I'm a Full Figured woman, and I rarely ever tell anyone they need to eat, since I as other Full Figured Women who take care of themselves, don't eat all day either.

My sister 120lbs, tells me that she can eat more than I do all the time, and she does.

The only time I tend to mock people are when they say they want to lose weight, but are at lunch eating Fried rice with Sweet and sour chicken washed down with a milkshake.

Answer 11

Just tell them sorry I don't have time to talk I have to go to the bathroom and stick my fingers down my throat.

Answer 12

thank you.

why does it matter what they think??? if you like the way you look and know you eat right and live right, it really doesnt matter what someone else thinks of you. . . just smile and say,"Thank you so much! you look good too."

Answer 13

Just say "Thanks!" with a pretty positive smile. Who cares wad others think of your appearance. Skinny is relative. And you can wear so many nice clothes when you are slim!

Answer 14

"That's for my doctor to judge, not you."

Answer 15

Just say ok, smile and walk away.

that would be so irritating on their part especially if they gave you a long insult. trust me on this. ;)

Answer 16

just smile and say "thanks, i feel great!"  =) project confidence about your appearance and they will get the message

Answer 17

Most people mean it as a back-handed compliment, but sure it can get annoying....

"If you'd leave any food for me, I could eat something!"

"Yeah I got squeezed between two fat people at the feeding trough" (with piercing glare at commenter)

"You don't want me taking food away from YOU, do you?"

But really, you don't have to take it as an insult.. most people are just jealous and trying to give you a little ribbing to even things out... don't take them seriously.

Answer 18

Just smile and say "Compared to you, an hippopotamus is skinny."
