[quote=Anonymous]My younger brother is in college and I’ve noticed that he’s put on quite a bit of weight. I wouldn’t care except that I’m worried about his health. He’s eating more junk food than usual, isn’t exercising, and has been super anxious. I think it’s partly Covid related with the loss of routine and uncertainty. There’s a history of cardiac problems in our family, which is partly why I’m worried. Do you think I should bring up the weight issue with him? Ask my parents to? As a woman, if someone commented that I’ve gained a lot of weight, it would really upset me — so I don’t want to upset him. But I’m worried ... Another point- my parents have always been weird about body and food issues, and so my brother and I have inherited that to a certain extent. Which is to say: my brother is more sensitive than the average person about body stuff. [/quote]
