Feeling unmotivated to workout after being mocked at the gym today. I don’t know if I can go again

So I’m a small woman (under 5 feet). I’m 120 pounds now, and I want to try and get to 100 pounds, I had started with 130. I’ve been eating well and working out well consistently. I’ve decided to start working on my strength as well, so I thought of squatting at the squat rack. I did 60 pounds for about 8 reps and was feeling very proud of myself, and another fit girl came to the rack next to me and started pumping out 135+ pounds for squats. Her and her boyfriend/partner kept staring and giggling at me every time I was going for my sets, I did my best to avoid them and focus on my workout only.

After a few minutes her partner showed up to me and asked me to leave the rack for him to move actual weight and not baby weight like me. That left me incredibly embarrassed and I teared up pretty fast in front of everyone, I’ve always been very conscious of working out as a short fat girl. I’m so embarrassed right now after everything that happened. I just feel really bad and uncomfortable and I don’t know how I can go back. I really want to get fit and lose weight.

I just needed to vent because I’m really sad. I know it sounds stupid and silly, it’s not a huge deal, but it’s made me very self conscious and I don’t know if I’ll ever be able to workout there again.
