I think your friend was wrong to say that in front of other people.
As for what she said, well I posted here a couple of days ago and said the same thing. If you imagine someone 5'6" who weighs 145 ...well my friend who is 5'6" and weighs 142 is in a 12, and she doesn't wear baggy clothes. Yes, it's the clothing size variation and vanity sizing, but you know I really do think that something about the weight loss makes people wear a smaller size than someone who's always been that weight.
If she's a good friend and a real friend being insensitive, I'd tell her it embarrassed me and in general I'd want comments about my size to be private unless they're raving about how great I look. If she was being nasty I'd be done with that friendship.
