So I started a new job I’ve been their 3 months now and my manager made me miss my lunch then went on to say it would do me good! (I am not big at all im a size 8 UK) I said to him I actually didn’t think I was that fat tbh and he went on to say well it will keep you trim ! Like I actually have issue with my weight and I was just starting to feel like I felt ok in my own body and then that happened I feel so insecure all over again I want to take this higher but if I do I know he will make my life in work hell how do I approach this without ruining my job!

Go to the HR. Then keep a notebook with every single thing he does to u after this times and dated with each report occurrence. This is the only way to protect yourself as a worker and to keep your rights. If you get fired because of backlash you will have a lawsuit

What US size is an 8? And what are the HR laws where you live? But definitely report him and if he gives you a hard time, report him again.
I don’t know about the laws in the UK, but unless you’re a model, actress, or similar, that’s completely illegal in the US. And skipping lunch isn’t healthy, anyway. It impairs concentration among other things. This guy should go, but at the very least must shut up.
I hope you have HR. Do not allow that. Next time say something sarcastic back. I’m ruthless, I would of cussed his ass out.
Comments such as that are no longer acceptable in the work place. You also have to be allowed to break for lunch. I would document everything and report it to the HR Department. Best of luck to you

Go to HR, tell them what happened, tell them it made you feel very uncomfortable & that you don’t feel his comments were appropriate, and tell them you are concerned that reporting him will cause future problems at work. If they can’t resolve it for you, it’s not a company you want to work for anyway.
As a manager, he should know better … he either needs additional sensitivity training, or he doesn’t need to be a manager.

Not right. Tell him his extra weight looks good on him. Kill him with kindness.
So f*cking rude to say to a woman. Take it to HR, totally inappropriate. This is why us women have so many body issues cause of comments like that
Don’t let what you think might happen stop you from doing what should be done. He’s a bully and needs to be shown the door. If you don’t do or say anything your basically allowing him to keep doing it, to you and others…

So you didn’t have a break? Why thou? How many hours did you work? Besides his comment your required to have a break… You need to speak up for yourself.
That is nowhere near ok! You need to file some kind of complaint against him! Hell, I want to do it for you! He ought to be ashamed to treat someone like that! And I bet he’s fat himself!
He said it wouldn’t hurt for you to miss a meal because he wanted you to work through lunch & not complain, I believe, vs. making a crack about your weight. I think he’s trying to work you to death, not comment about your looks.
The less you care what people think, the easier your life will be. Remember, 99% of what people say has to do with them & their own insecurities and has almost nothing to do with you. Let it roll off your back.
If you feel this was a crack at your weight/looks, so check out your company’s policies against harassment. H.R. generally woks for the status quo, but do contact them if you feel it’s need.

For tell your manager he’s breaking the law , you need to have a lunch… And size 8 is not fat. He’s just down right rude
Report his Ass to HR!
People are so extremely sensitive and take everything as an offense, his comments sounds more like a joke, a bad joke , if you got that offended you definitely have issues , do not allow any one comments about your weight or look to hurt you.
To be honest I will let this go but if he makes another comment just tell him to stop

He is wrong. I really want to say wrong and stupid, but… I would report him if you are able. I would also tell him that people’s weights are OFF LIMITS for a conversation. Tell him you are offended. ( P S. Start now thinking of a comeback like … I can lose weight, but you’ll still be ugly)
You were still suppose to get yourunch and manager was suppose to cover it, and the comment I would say keep that to your self.

What an ass… Completely unprofessional whether he meant it jokingly or not. Even if you were overweight he has no right making a comment like that. Your entitled to a lunch if you work so many hours. If it were me I’d report him to HR for the comment and if you were supposed to get a lunch that as well.
If you let it go it will continue no doubt
I actually don’t think he made the joke personally about you but a joke he’d make to and with anyone he was with at the time. I’ve made jokes like this to my mom and hubby and never was is directed at them but just sarcasm in general.

It was the manager’s fault that you missed your lunch so he probably was deflecting blame. He wanted to make it seem like a good thing since it was his fault. I don’t think he meant anything negative about your weight, he was pushing the fact that you can stay fit by not taking lunch, which applies to thin, average and overweight all alike. I wouldn’t take it personal at all. However, what would bother me is missing lunch. Everyone deserves their breaks and lunches and he’s missing the mark as a manager. I would give it a pass this time, but if it ever happened again I’d report it and let them know about the time before.

I would record it and send it to he, or if nothing done - take it to court! That’s definitely not ok. Doesn’t matter how, but skipping lunch is not healthy and he is playing with you. And that is bullying in the way he is trying to control you.
If you can’t take it higher right now make others aware in case you have to or report him anonymously
He’s a jerk. Tell on him.
Go higher if they support him they don’t need you you can do better than dealing with disrespect in your work environment

What has that to do with your job, ITS A MALE EGO, so the only thing he could come up with was the lunch instant, HES JUST A PIECE OF WORK , HIS PROBLEM dont ever let any male take away your Self Worth .Love who you are … Good Luck …
I’d eat a massive slice of chocolate cake in front of him next time. He’s an idiot, don’t let him get under your skin but do definitely report it if it occurs again. As an isolated incident I wouldn’t, my colleagues and I used to joke around and say stuff like this to each other not maliciously so he may just have that sense of humour. I would maybe explain to him that it upset you and ask him to refrain from comments regarding weight in the future.

He was wrong…. Don’t give someone the power to make you insecure in your own skin. We are all flawed! Find his flaws and if he continues flip that around 2 wrongs don’t make a right but sometimes you have to remind people to go look in a mirror. Be confident in yourself a size 8 is not fat, chances are he was trying to take away from the fact that as your boss he failed by not giving you your break and you called him out on it. Unfortunately people can be a$$’s just remember his failure of not doing his job has nothing to do with your weight. Keep on shining girl💕
report him - its bullying!

So rude. Sounds like a bully for sure.
Please go to HR about it. I don’t know the laws where you’re from but regardless, that’s despicable and gross. If you feel up to it, please fight back. You’re worth it, and you don’t deserve to feel shitty at your job. And if he does it to you, he’ll do it to others.
I’m sure you will get lots of good advice but I think you should go to HR and file a complaint.
He is wrong in so many ways. Eat in front of him.
Do you want to work under those conditions??
Call corporate on him. report him labor laws.
