Aaaaand he said it again. "I think you have thyroid problems because your fat in an ugly way." Then I asked him what he wanted me to look like. He didn't explain it, he just threw a tantrum. So I have to eat even less? And I am already constantly starving!
Actually, I've heard that cutting back too much on food causes your body to go into starvation mode, which actually causes you to GAIN weight. So not eating enough could actually be your problem if you're still gaining weight.
The body was designed to deal with famine, not abundance of food, avoiding temptation, and idealizing an overly skinny appearance. In some cultures, I believe that being too skinny is actually considered a sign of poverty rather than beauty.
