People commenting on my weight

[Shehasadiamondinthesky]

I did post this this morning on my phone but it disappeared so apologies if you've seen it already.
I'm a size 18 and have been struggling with my weight enormously since the menopause, I've had a gastric band, been on all kinds of diets, have started hill walking carefully as I have a lung complaint a bit like asthma, totally changed my diet.
Everyone I know thinks it's ok to comment on my weight, family, friends, hospital patients I look after, all I hear is you'd be so pretty if you were a bit slimmer, you've put on a fair bit of weight over the last few years, are you aware of how much weight you've put on (my mother).
I'm really at the end of my tether, I've been working full time flat out in NHS over covid and I'm exhausted plus trying to survive on 1200 calories on long gruelling days at work, I've had all the tests under the sun, thyroid, diabetes etc.
I know I'll get there eventually but it's slow and I'm dog tired.
Next time someone talks to me about my weight I feel like saying:
"OMG I never realised I was fat, thank you so much for pointing it out, I had NO idea"
Fuck's sake, I'm so sick of it. I'm doing my best.
AIBU?

Sorry you have to experience this, OP. People are incredibly rude and insensitive, you have every right to be put out. Please don't be humouring them, just try to ignore it - as hard as it might be.
All the best xx

Actually I suggest you don't ignore them and say out loud what you've types here. They will not repeat it again

Yes, say it.
Or
"Really?! I honestly just thought my clothes were getting smaller! Being a nurse I have no idea how the human body works, or any self awareness at all, so thanks for the heads-up! By the way, did you realise that you're a bit of a cock and you'd be a much prettier person inside if you weren't? Seeing as we're pointing out faults without invitation"

In all honesty though I ignore them, I may have snapped a couple of times something similar but generally it's not worth it.

I'm sorry you're going through this, I believe in you, keep believing in yourself, I'm struggling with that at the moment myself and stalling a bit so know how it feels 💐

Tell them to fuck off! I've had this my entire life, from mum, aunts, mums old lady friends.
Aunts always called me fat related names so one day I told them all they were fucking ugly, they stopped after that.
Mum's old lady friends always used to comment on my weight even telling me I looked like I lost weight when I actually knew I'd gained it!! I asked why they felt the need to comment on my weight? Was it something like tell fatty she looks a bit slimmer and that will make her day kinda thing? They actually couldn't come up with an answer so I politely asked them to no longer comment on my weight, they didn't.
Mum, well, mums can be utter bitches when it comes to stuff like this so best to ignore.

Face it head on, OP, and get rude with it like "Tell you what, I won't comment on your ugly face if you don't comment on the size of my arse" type response!!

Honestly, tell them, you will feel better because no one ever excepts you to answer back on this subject.
