Hi,yeah yr family can be more destructive than yr enemy, I've had it done ro me, yes its jealousy and I feel as in my case CONTROL. When most people are "overweight" they have low self esteem, also I learned over yrs is that, if one family member is "fat" the other jealous "COW" (pardon the pun) wants that person to stay fat and controllable to make there own self esteem better. Try ignore the "COW" and you keep yr down weight days to yourslf and the true people who are behind you. You have a new extended family here on FATSECRETS , if having a bad weight week, tell you, we are all in same boat, wewont judge, record yr food intake and we can check it out together and see what can be causing "fliid retaintion" some weeks when you feel you have been good PS If Hungry and you know you HAVE eating enough, brush yr teeth, this will really help you to get through the 20 mins or so that yr brain needs to tell yr stomach yr full. good luck and welcme back.
