Story 1

I am a significantly overweight woman.  I was on a cruise with my daughter recently, and I was dishing up her meal for her from the dinner buffet because she was tired. So I was leaving the buffet area holding both our plates of food.  A woman coming in the other direction looked at me holding two plates, looked me up and down, and said "wow!", in a shocked / disgusted tone of voice.  It ruined my whole evening - I felt down, angry, ashamed and sad, and I still felt a bit down the following day.
