[quote=Anonymous]Please don't listen to the people shaming you even more. Lord. It doesn't help. My parents used to do this OP. It probably is well meaning but it is NOT helpful in any shape or form. What helped me in my 20s was working with a nutritionist who was not weight focused and helped empower me to explain to my parents that their comments were not only wrong, but incredibly hurtful and shaming. I told them flat out it was not ok anymore to talk to me about my weight (increase or decrease!) no comments on my body generally. No comments about food in front of me, calling foods bad or good. I explained it in a nice way like hey, these things actually make it worse. I really need your help. To be healthy, I can't be in a shame spiral. They really did make a massive change. I had to keep providing psychoeducation but it worked. I worked with Emily Fonnesbeck and read some books on intuitive eating to be able to provide the education. https://emilyfonnesbeck.com/[/quote]
