Did she actually say it in a belittling tone or in a joking tone?
>>24488907
Belittling, then she tried to laugh it off awkwardly

Then she's just a bitch. Don't fret over dumb people like that. It's not worth your time and energy. If you really are that irritated by it, use it to start exercising and get stronger.
I started weightlifting after browsing /fit/ and life is better when you are strong. You have more confidence and people try you with more respect. And not to mention the physical and mental health benefits of exercise

I just started lifting recently, actually. I've got a long way to go, though.

Here's the best tip I can give you. I wish I had known this from the beginning, I would have made so much more progress. It sounds really simple but it is actually the most important thing about fitness.
Diet is the most important factor when it comes to training. Going to the gym just gives your body the stimulus to grow. Any resistance training program will your body adequate stimulus. Whether or not you actually grow depends entirely on your diet.
Ever since I started to track my calories with an app, I've been making so much more progress. For the first year of lifting, I didn't really track anything. I started out skinny so I just tried to consciously eat more than I normally do. In reality I was probably undereating on some days and eating way too much on others. The inconsistency in diet translated to plateaus in the gym and my body did not gain as much muscle.
Seriously, buy a food scale. It'll be one of the best investments for your body you can ever make.
