I feel like that could lead to some dangerous escalations where you get jumped by them and their friends with potentially no one around to keep things going too far.

Likely would have been better to quietly try bring it up with the teacher, another student near you two (peer shame them), and failing that, plausible denial retaliation (get up from your seat but shove your chair back into their desk, into them, with a quick apology).

Just adding congrats on the weight loss. I held a near constant weight (slightly under weight) from late high school to my early 30's. Then I started working out of hotels, which meant eating from restaurants and fast food almost every meal. I put on nearly 40 pounds. It triggered snoring, sleep apnea, and I think heart burn in me, so I decided to lose weight for the first time in my life.

It was hard, with seemingly no progress for the first 2-3 weeks. And then only slowly dropping down. So it's very impressive to me that you've managed that while have issues that make it even tougher.
