I have been fat shamed twice in the last week. Once by a relative, the other by a medical professional

I feel so beaten down. I know I shouldn't let it bother me, but it just does.

I'm at my heaviest, I weigh 232lbs at 5'6 and 24F.

I have been trying to release my trauma in order to healthily lose some weight. That is so difficult when part of your trauma stems from being fat shamed at 10 years old by your own mother.

I had surgery last week. A nurse wrote my weight down in kg (104?) and said it looked 'horrendous'. I saw my MIL yesterday and she commented to my SO today about how fat we have both become (he stood up for me dw).

It just makes me feel crap. How can I lose weight healthily, when people are saying this crap?
