Tell him you meant nothing by it, just trying to help. If he doesn't believe just move on, nothing you can do about it now OP

Don't worry if he complains about you to human resources, he doesn't have a leg to stand on

That's a typical thing to say about an injury. He should know that, and it shouldn't affect your ability to speak normally.

I kind have wish it was intentional. That would be a good burn if you two were close enough to make fun of each other.

Oh please. He's being a little too sensitive over common advice. He needs to go see a doctor about losing weight if he's that worried about it.

That's normal to tell someone not to put too much weight on their foot. I hope they feel better and I hope your working relationship isn't ruined.

He needs to man up and quit being a sensitive baby.

Most people who are overweight knows they are. Only thing is, sometimes they need help to get started and don't really know where to begin or too afraid to ask. I've seen big people out running and they may not be running fast but I applaud them for being outside trying. I would never make fun of someone who's at the gym or running outside because they're taking the first step of becoming a better person.

I guess you just couldn't sugarcoat it.
