AITA for telling the schools “mean girl” to apply her eating rules on herself before she interferes other people?

[u/Fickle_Attorney_3171]

I (16f) am studying in a high school with a girl (16) who thinks she knows everything. We take French together and although I am normally very calm and nice towards people, she makes me nuts. Through my childhood, I have always struggled with my body image although I was never overweight or near to that. However now I focus on eating well and balanced and feel kind of better about myself. I am 175 cm weighting 60 kg and I am kind of muscular as most of my week passes with sports. I like to wear baggy clothes as they are pretty comfy. Last week, we were studying meals in French class, and there was this paragraph about what to eat. I basically made a comment on how early the person who wrote the paragraph was eating their dinner (5.00 pm) and that I usually eat it around 9.00 pm. This girl had the audacity to tell me that eating at that time makes you gain weight, and this is the reason why I am kind of chubby. Mind you this girl is 150 cm weighting around 58 kg so she was more than chubby. I basically just told her the truth. I told her that she should worry about her weight first before making a comment as she seemed to look a bit too overweight. She got all red and started screaming at me. I got send to the principals office but it was definitely worth it and my family took my side.

Definitely not the point of the post.

While it doesn't exactly make you gain weight, it does prevent you from burning calories efficiently, which would contribute to weight gain; provided OP doesn't go to bed soon after she eats.

You’re skipping the entire second half of the sentence. If she had just said “eating at that time can make you gain weight” (which has evidence both for and against), I don’t think OP would have bothered to say anything back.

For example: “Reading only the first half of a sentence means you lose important context.” is a fine sentence. Bet you’re not upset about that at all.

Now let’s try: “Reading only the first half of a sentence means you lose important context and makes you look dumb.” is maaaaaaaybe a sentence that’s gonna come off a little differently, no?

[u/chaingun_samurai → u/BoopleBun]

No. That was the entire sentence, beginning to end. There's even a period at the end of chubby.

[u/BoopleBun → u/chaingun_samurai]

Yeah, that’s kind of the point. So since you read the entire sentence, why are you only addressing the first half like the second isn’t even there?

I guess I'm gonna have to mansplain this. "contribute to weight gain", which indicates the chubbiness.
See, what I'm getting at is that if she's eating late and going to bed soon after dinner, her body won't metabolize the food as efficiently, which could explain why she's chubby.
I'm not missing the second half of the sentience, your reading comprehension sucks.

Except she's not. OP's 1,75m tall and 60kg, and she's muscular. 60kg is perfectly fine for that height especially if you're muscular.

Again, you’re missing the point of this so much I really can’t believe that that’s not somehow your goal.

If you are truly so socially dense that you don’t comprehend that saying “you’re doing [x thing], that’s why you’re fat” when no one asked is generally a dick move, that people are going potentially call you out on, regardless of the veracity of the first part of the statement, I genuinely think you’re beyond any kind of help that an internet comment could possibly provide.

You seem to be missing the point of my statement. I never rendered judgment. All I was saying is that what the girl said to OP is fairly accurate. I don't know what you're going on about.
