Today, I told my dad that for Halloween I'm going to be an '80s workout Barbie. He just looks at me and says, "Yeah as the 'before' picture". FML

Ok. I am the OP. I used to 116 lbs and i gained a little weight in college and now I weigh 134lbs. I don't think that is fat and I dont appreciate being called that. But I know by sharing my funny story I run the risk of getting these nasty comments. The nasty comments definitely made my excitement from gettign posted vanished but I will get over it. When my dad said this comment to me I laughed very VERY hard. My dads a funny guy and I didnt take it personally because I love my body and I am comfortable which is all that matters. I posted this story to make other ppl laugh because I think laughter is the best thing in the whole world. I chose this costume because it cost me $10 and i wasnt going to spend $60 smething on something skanky like every other college girl (sorry for those who arent i dont want to generalize). And for the record there is not and never was and spandex involved in the making of this costume. Im wearing an oversized sweater and shorts, tights, legwarmers (etc). Halloween on a budget ppl. So to those who made nice comments, thank you I just wanted everyone to laugh. And to those nasty mean ppl who have nothing better to do than bring ppl down, sorry you think 134lbs is fat and I'm sorry there arent other things that make you laugh besides hurting ppls feelings.

How come everyone assumes, that when someone is called fat, that the OP in question is 300+ lbs. or something? I'm 145 lbs. myself. Some people see me as a fatass that needs to get liposuction, while others wonder if I even eat. It's a matter of peoples' narrow opinions sometimes.

fat and spandex = NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO Oh my ****, the fat rolls swallowing the spandex between the folds must resemble a neon supernova. Not to mention the HORRID mooseknuckle. :C

ugh. you can be heavier than stick thin and still be a healthy weight. I hate how so many people see healthy weight as supermodel thin, that is NOT HEALTHY. My mom started telling me to diet as soon as I got out of the underweight BMI range, and it can really mess you up to have someone close to you telling you that you're overweight (especially if you're not) Sorry OP, your dad is a douchebag.

Actually, your dad has a great idea there. I mean, what could be easier to make a costume of than the solid block of plastic that is to become a Barbie doll?

YDI for thinking you're hot when you're actually FAT.

Even if you could make it work, it'd still be a sucky costume. That said, this reminds me of this fatty - who used to work at a local retailer - that literally wore spandex every day she worked. Thanks to that, she got pegged as the "Spandex Queen." The lesson, kiddies, is to not wear something that you don't fit in unless you like being or desire to be mocked.

LOL, I thought this was one of those stories where it was someone complaining about how someone thinks they're fat, in order to get 500 "Oh please I'm sure you're the most beautiful girl ever, we can use your ribcage as a xylophone, it's sexy" comments.
