To be so upset by what my aunt said and did when I went to visit

I think you need to keep the comments in perspective. You had a visit with an insulting auntie who seems to have no filter, that's all. Taking the comments to heart so much that you're considering plastic surgery is just daft, esp as you were happy with yourself before.
Why would you take the word from one batty lady over your own?

And another - fatty liver disease is a common thing as people get older too. You would've already had it am pretty sure as takes months, if not years to develop. Unless you are an alcoholic, which can cause it to develop quicker.

Go easy on yourself. Stop letting other people's comments affect you so extremely and negatively.

I think you’re getting a hard time on here OP. You’ve described a problem and asked for help, to be met by a barrage of interrogation, most of it suggesting that you should have said and done things differently. Whatever went on, that won’t help now,

Your aunt was hurtful, whether or not she meant to be. It seems to me that you will have to reevaluate your family relationships.

Are you really 56?
this sounds like it’s been posted by a child!!

And restaurants, which her other relatives could get to but not op.

You’re 56 not 6, surely you could get your own food and cook yourself! No one force fed you chips and like the others say, you’d have had to eat fat for longer to get fatty liver!

Ok no uber eats.

Were they not even any shops to buy your own food? How did your aunt get all the chips to feed you with?

Yes she sounds awful but after 2 days of negging and chips, why didn’t you move out? Or even go home?

I have mild fatty liver and my very slim GP was telling me that lots of people have it to some extent - including her, in spite of doing all the right things.

or boils.

Sounds like a very odd family all round.

Op, how do you feel in yourself? I ask this, as a family member did the same thing to me once and looked visibly shocked at my appearance, having not seen me for 2 years.

It turned out I had a potentially fatal medical condition and I'd just been putting the extreme tiredness I was feeling down to having a new baby. The comment spurred me to go to the doctor and get checked!

You don't need plastic surgery! A 72-hour fast followed by a few weeks of healthy eating, maybe.

OP, your Aunt sounds horrible, I have no idea why you didn't cut your visit short. Are you from a culture that is big on "duty" to family?

Don't take what she said to heart - ageing is harsh in your 50s, it's just a fact of life. By all means have a glow up - new skincare, good diet, good haircut etc - but don't start thinking about surgery just because of what she said.

So - YANBU for never wanting to see your Aunt again. YABU to have stayed so long to endure this treatment!

This whole food/health/self imagine thing is very odd and did not manifest after a three week shitty family holiday, otherwise we’d all be a right old state. It sounds as if you’re doing all the right things now. Good luck.

Were there no shops or markets to buy some fruit?

You sound like a teenager not someone heading towards 60 who can fend for themselves!

OP - I think you are being given a hard time here!!

I am not British and have family overseas, so I understand it can be tricky to navigate food when you are staying with someone else. I can can also relate to being on the receiving end of disparaging comments - not quite as blatant as your aunt’s, but nonetheless upsetting.

She literally fed you nothing but chips for three meals a day? Really? She gave you chips for breakfast, lunch and dinner? Nothing else?

She sounds odd and rude, but you are being silly. You don't come out in boils from a few days of eating chips, nor does it give you fatty liver disease. Also, you've said yourself your aunt is odd, so ignore her comments.

What a strange visit.

You’re 56?? This is on you. How are you a whole 56 years of age and unable to take care of yourself.? You are the only one responsible for what you put in your mouth. Why did you eat the chips all the time? Surely you could have walked to the shops and bought something. OR asked for more food from the other family members who knew what they were like?
Sorry but all of you sound bizarre. They sound odd, but so do you. Wanting plastic surgery because at 56 you ate chips.

So this is normal behaviour for your aunt? Why couldn’t you go out for meals, you don’t need to be taken! Same as cooking for yourself.

And as for inferring that you got fatty liver from the chips, you didn’t!

She did not cause you to get fatty liver! This takes YEARS to build up. There is no ‘tipping into the unhealthy range’ it’s not like a kitchen scales! ⚖️

You cant get fatty liver from afew weeks of unhealthy food !!!!

It sounds like a horrible visit, I wouldn't bother going there again. Did she invite you, or were you there for another reason? I wouldn't have eaten chips for 3 weeks, why couldn't you source food from somewhere else? Didn't you go out of the house to anywhere with shops or restaurants? Interested to know what on earth your aunt was eating too.
Women change quite a bit around menopause age (going through it myself) but it's normal. She was very rude, and you should just ignore her - you could have said something like 'so have you!' I bumped into someone I hadn't seen for many years last week, and they'd changed so much I didn't even know who it was. But in any case, she doesn't sound like good company, and your stay doesn't sound remotely fun, so don't go back!

Three weeks of eating chips absolutely did not cause fatty liver disease. You are using your aunt as a scapegoat here, take responsibility for your own health - you’ll feel better.

Your aunt sounds rude and I can see how what she was saying would’ve hurtful and wear thin very quickly, but your response is odd (I’m researching cosmetic procedures) and so I wonder whether you need to access some help to work on your self esteem.

No, she didn’t give you a fatty livers. That is all on you.
