Oh my gosh! Your own mother says that to you? Listen, you probaly eat more because your family and people and school are making your self esteem lower and lower, so you eat more because you're depressed, and you're depressed cause you eat more. I have one thing to tell you...show them all. Show your mom and everyone that makes fun of you that you CAN lose weight when you want to and they shouldn't make fun of you like that. Show them all:).

i know its hard.... that has happened to me my whole life... and ive listened my whole life... i think thats why i had such low self esteem and gained more weight.... i know its hard not to listen but try...im going to tell you what i do when people do that to me....i realised that most of the people that made fun of me were skinny....so in my head i know that i could always lose the weight...but they'll never lose their attitude... and when im skinny...they'll probably be fat...it actually makes me laugh...i hope it helps you....

ignore them. if they're that insensitive then it won't matter how you look becasue they'll never change. i think that they're stupid for saying that to anyone and should be more supportive of who you are. if you do decide to lose weight- don't do it for them because what they're doing is wrong.
