I would just laugh it off. Wouldn't bother me at all.

Yeah that.....I think it was an attempt at a joke.

I don't think he meant anything bad by it, it just didn't come out well.

Fast forward and now getting ready to end my visit. Her husband says "Come back after you lose another 16 lbs in 4 weeks.". I don't respond. Then he says "You can come back sooner than 4 weeks.".

They are paying my cellphone bill so I don't ask clarifying questions since when doing so people can get offended (by having to explain they mean).

I've been analyzing his comments. When you hear his comments, what do you think?
It was an awkward joke. Laugh, already.

Any guy who drives a 505 hp Z06 should have thicker skin than that. It was a parting comment meant to be semi funny and to tell you to come back more often. Nothing more, nothing less.

What is it about this age group -- you didn't ask him, in a nice way, what he meant, but you're asking us?
He was just kidding, and I think you're too obsessed about your weight.

That makes sense; I no longer have that car. Thus, I'm thin skinned.

It sounded to me like he was just making a joke when I read it.
