Today, after weeks, I've finally reached my goal and lost 10 lbs. My sister got jealous about me losing weight, and told my parents and coworkers that I'm anorexic. Hello, intervention. FML

Thanksgiving
Questions about your love life, a burnt turkey and the cousin who knows everything: Thanksgiving, a contact sport.
Today, my family held an intervention and told me I needed to lose weight. It probably would've had more impact if they hadn't done this over video chat while stuffing their faces at an all-you-can-eat buffet. FML
Today, I saw my parents for the first time in 11 weeks. They commented on how much weight I lost. I told how due to stress, I hadn't been able to eat anything for the past two weeks and I was basically unintentionally starving myself. They told me to keep it up. FML
Today, I told my mom I lost 30 pounds because of an eating disorder. She told me to keep up the good work. FML
Today, I overheard my ripped, handsome, genetically perfect brother telling my mom how "fat people" make him "nervous". I have only recently accepted my weight, after struggling for years. I now understand why my brother rarely talks to me. FML
Today, I got to see my best friend for the first time in months. Her first reaction was to say, "Wow, you gained a lot of weight." I actually lost a fair bit. FML
Today, after I completely starved myself for a week and exercised every day in an attempt to lose weight, I instead gained 5 pounds. FML
Today, I went to my parents' house. I recently lost about 30 lbs. My mom hugged me and said, "Aww, you're not my chubby baby girl anymore." She then said she wished I were still fat because she missed it. She's the reason I lost the weight; she used to tease and taunt me. Thanks Mom. FML
Today, I proudly told my family I lost 15 pounds. My dad looked me up and down and said, "Well, you've got a looooong way to go." FML
Today, a coworker complimented me on losing weight, and said that she wished she could drop a few pounds too. I was too embarrassed to tell her that the only reason I've lost weight is because I haven't been able to afford to eat. FML
Today, when my mother-in-law told me I was losing weight, my husband started laughing. FML

Tell them about her having an over-eating disorder. Works the same way.

Hard to comment on this one. If you're now a healthy weight, congratulations on losing the weight, it's not easy! your did is just being a bitch. I'm sure your family & friends will understand that. Certainly a professional who deals with eating disorders will see it. If, however, your were already very slim & the additional 10 lbs is putting you underweight, then kudos to your sister for trying to help you to get healthy! Being extremely underweight can lead to a faster death than bring extremely overweight!

Unfortunately, this is common.I'm a personal trainer and I hear stories from my clients. I'd confront her privately. If she still persists, time for and emotional counter-strike. Great work on the weight loss! Take progress pictures and document your transformation, it'll mean all that must more. Again, Great job!

Don't be a troll tress. People don't come here to act smart, that's what talking in person is for. So let the comments about doo-doo and crystal meth be, yes?

Okay 79, you can definitely go be "intellectual" somewhere else. This is FML. Gtfo.

'People don't come here to act smart' - you've got that right. And who are you to tell me to go to another site? Why the hell should I listen to you? You think saying that is going to help? I'm not the troll here, you're the one trying to pick a fight, not me. I was just stating my opinion and some people just can't handle it, apparently. End of discussion. I don't think there's really any more to say here.
