[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP again. I’m sorry I gave the impression I bring up my diet or weight at all! I absolutely do not do that, in fact, I’d prefer not to talk about it with anyone. But my family is food obsessed and I’m not judging, just stating fact. I sure don’t tell them they don’t need that extra slice of pizza, and they should give me the same respect and not tell me I need a slice. (“You’re on vacation. Have it. HAVE IT! Be bad with us! You deserve this!”) [/quote]

So the advice to not bring it up isn't to counter you yammering about it all the time.  It's to just take Food and Diet off the list for conversations entirely.  You have to NOT ENGAGE in a debate with your pushy family members.  That's the point.   If you go somewhere and eat egg whites and they are shoving waffles at you, just say "no thank you".  If your family is really so pushy that they won't drop it, then I'd find ways to spend meals apart here and there.  Maybe have dinner together, but be too busy the rest of the time.
