Well I am 27 years old and I have four kids. Okay let me take you back some........Growing up I have always been really skinny. Nothing I did would gain me some pounds. At the age of 17 I had my first child. still didnt keep the weight. age 18 had second child still nothing. My family always laughed at me for being skinny. I hated Thanksgiving because they would always say to me "you need to be the first one up here". So I would always laugh it off but on the inside I was crying. So I divorced my husband and it got to me. I filed for it but I did still love him. I had got down to be less than 90 pounds. I konw at the age of 22. I meet the man Im with to this day and had my 3rd child still back to size 0 jeans. So this time I was not unhappy I was very happy but I could not keep it at all. Once again his sister would always say to me "man if you could get any smaller". And again laugh but crying on the inside. So now october 4 I had my 4th child and I am happy to say I am in a size 7 jeans. I know so so happy but yes but I still get talked about. Its like nothing I do gets them off my back. Please what can I do to get them to leave me alone??????

Unfortunately, nothing can be done for the most part. For the smaller part though, talk to them about how the way the talk to and about you is making you feel. (I have same problem with my entire family!)

Let them know it bothers you when they make comments about your body regardless if its just "playing around". Tell them that its a sensitive topic for you and hopefully they respect you for that and STOP. If they respond negatively to you standing up for yourself, don't get into a fight or anything, just basically repeat yourself again and say "Hey, I wouldn't talk about your body so just understand that it bothers me and that's it, done" the shorter you keep it, the better. I tend to distance myself from people that make me feel down about myself. People just don't realize that words have an impact.
