Should I feel differently?…

So today my boyfriend of 3 years told me that "fat people are ugly". I'm a thick girl who's definitely long ways away from skinny. And he knows that I struggle with losing weight/ keeping it off when I do. He knows that he hurt my feelings because I took his statement directly and his response was that he didn't see me that way and that I'm not fat. I'm 5'4 200+ btw.. just to paint the picture. Should I be upset about his statement knowing that he supposedly doesn't view me as fat?.. even though majority would
