Bride puts ‘plus-size’ wedding guests at  ‘Weight Watchers’ table — and claims it was a ‘body positive’ thing: ‘Straight-up rude and humiliating’

She threw big shade on her big day. 

Under the guise of “body positivity,” a brazen bridezilla sat all of her plus-size guests — including chunky close relatives — at table labeled “Weight Watchers.”  

“My sister sat me at a table specifically reserved for overweight people at her wedding reception,” the bride’s older sibling, a 32-year-old woman, virtually known as Basic-Donut2903, ranted on Reddit.

After assisting her little sis, 30, in perfecting all of the big day arrangements, the outraged Redditor was stunned to learned that she’d been sequestered to the heavyset seating area of the fat-shaming fête. 

“I go to find my table… and I swear to god, the little name card says ‘Weight Watchers,’ wrote Basic-Donut2903. “Not like a cute table name or a funny inside joke…just ‘Weight Watchers.’ I thought maybe I misread it or something, but nope.”

“I look around and realize everyone at the table is plus-size,” she added. “All of us. Every single person there.”

“I was mortified.”

But was the bulge-conscious bride ready to apologize for the offense? Fat chance.

“I pulled my sister aside and asked her what the hell that was about and she literally laughed,” continued the vexed victim, noting that she is the only member of her immediate family who’s plump. “She goes, ‘Oh my god, don’t be so sensitive, I just thought it’d be more comfortable if people were with others like them. It’s a body positive thing.’”

It was the bride’s way of turning a positive into a negative. However, she’s not alone.

The once-revered body positivity movement — a social push for the inclusion and acceptance of all weights, shapes and sizes — has recently suffered several black eyes, owing to the meteoric rise of weight loss trends and drugs. 

Former body positivity front runners, such as Grammy winner, Lizzo, and Real Housewives of Salt Lake City star, Heather Gay, have admittedly turned to the buzzy anti-obesity jabs, like Ozempic, to shed excess chub. 

Gay, 51, even called the inclusive campaign a “big lie,” saying, “It is better to not be overweight.”

And Basic-Donut2903’s newly-hitched sister obviously agrees.

“How is putting all the bigger people at one table body positive?,” the wounded innocent questioned in her Reddit post. “It felt more like, ‘Hide the fat guests in the corner so they don’t ruin the aesthetic.’”

“So I left,” she said. “I didn’t make a big scene, I just quietly grabbed my gift and dipped…my feelings are legit so hurt right now.”

“Am I overreacting?? Or was that straight-up rude and humiliating?,” the beleaguered bridesmaid asked the cyber community before joking, “Also, I wore Spanx for 4 hours and I want compensation.”

But furious folks online weren’t in a laughing mood. 

“That was incredibly rude and childish of her and you have every reason to be upset,” insisted an incensed commenter. “Weddings are supposed to be a time of joining together, not making people feel separated or singled out.”

“As a fellow fat myself, I would be internally screaming and wanting to get myself as far away as possible from my sister and her mean spirited seating arrangement,” an equally peeved person wrote, in part. “I hope you are able to put your sister in her place on this one because it’s really cringy what she did to you and the other plus sized guests.” 

“What she did is unforgivable and extremely cruel,” echoed another. 

“Your sister is a hurtful, shallow human. What an idiot. I’m furious on your behalf. You (and everyone else at that table!) deserve much better,” said a separate supporter of Basic-Donut2903. 

“If/when you get married,” another advocate advised, “you can have a ‘Rude B*tch’ table and she can sit at the head of it.”
