I can definitely relate especially with family telling me I'm gaining weight and being fat. Every time they see a photo in facebook - a cousin, an aunt, or someone will comment something about my weight...It's the first thing they notice. Most of my weight gain is from the past 2 years and some of my cousins I haven't seen in years are definitely letting me know that I've gotten fat (like I don't know). However, I don't let it get to me, I even find it funny sometimes.0
