A little discouraged at the moment

Monda

Ok .... this has been on my mind for a little while and I just have to vent for a few minutes. I can not watch The Biggest Loser with my family. They look at the contestants and make comments that make me uncomfortable. It makes me wonder what they look at me and see. My husband and my 2 sons are not overweight at all and neither is my niece. She is a beautiful 17 year old who weighs 120 pounds. Guess they think they have it all figured out but it just really upsets me. I have asked them what they look at me and see and they just tell me I am not fat. Come on! You just said a girl on The biggest Loser was and I weigh more than her. Am I making too big a deal out of this? I am usually not someone who complains but this has gotten me a little discouraged. So now that I have vented, I no longer want to eat the refrigerator. LOL

I understand your frustration, my father makes comments about people's weight but always said I didn't need to lose any, even when I clearly did. I think family often loves you and truly doesn't see the weight. However it's natural for you to be sensitive and honestly those comments aren't nice. Making fun of people for their weight isn't nice, maybe talk to them about that?
