[quote=Anonymous]OP, Sending empathy. I (may) understand. I've been the "fat" one in my house my whole life. I'm not fat. But my mom makes comments about "liking food" (when she sees us) and "are you chubby?" (talking on the phone) or how she wishes she "had a little padding like you" and how "sturdy" I am. Yeah, I'm not a wisp of a thing, but I am a normal weight. When I was a kid and we played Nancy Drew I always had to be "Bess" who was "Pleasantly plump" ... it sticks with you and it makes you feel bad and it warps your sense of self. You internalize it. I'm trying hard not to pass that along to my kids. But the suggestions above are good ones. Seriously, go strong, don't run 8 miles a day. You can't do that forever. It catches up with you. OP, learn to love yourself, find the exercise you love, and be the best you. NOT the best you compared to your sister, the best you compared to you. [/quote]
