Ummmm....ya! They actually make me feel guilty for even wanting to lose weight. I weigh 145 and would like to weigh 120-125 in my 5 foot 4 inch frame. Most of my family is medium build and they think cuz I look 'fine' I should be happy where I am. Also, sine I have 20-25 pounds to lose to reach my goal and others in my family have 75-100 they make me feel like an idiot for trying to lose 'only' 20 pounds...why not leave it?....that's the feeling I get from them.

How do I deal with it? Probably in the only way I can....I come here to BuddySlim for my support and I don't even bring it up with my family at all. If you need positive, encouraging and inspirational support instead of all the negativity our own families hand out.....you have found the right spot! I have to block out the negativity beacuse I find it mentally and physically draining....and its unhealthy!!
