It's probably too late to do anything about this job. This person has already taken advantage of you and will continue to do so. Try to transfer out from under him to another group. If you can't, find a new job. This guy will continue to take credit for your work and will probably resist promoting you so he can continue to do so.
In the future, don't let this happen. As other posters have commented, you should have either spoken up at the meetings or complained to your old boss privately.
Many people have more social skill than technical skill. This situation will come again so learn your lessons.
If someone is asking about your status right before a meeting, that's a good sign he's going to try to take credit for your work. You can use it to your advantage, though. For example, keep something in your pocket. Don't tell him an important detail and then interject with it at the meeting. As an ULPT, tell him something that's wrong so he makes a fool of himself. (He'll accuse you of saying it, so tell him he misunderstood.) People like this are playing a game with you. Don't ignore it; you must play as well.
