Well, after a lot of yelling and crying, I told my parents that they don't really help me losing weight and actually just make me feel bad about myself, what usually ends up with me eating to forget. They yelled back, said I was childish and that I am the only one that can do anything to make myself lose weight. So I yelled back again and told them that I knew I was the only one that can do anything but that help is welcomed and if you are not helping, you better shut your mouth.
Seriously, there is no helping them... I simply tried to ignore it after the burst out, but along the weekend, they kept throwing me depreciative comments. What annoys me more are that they are my parents, I know they want the best for me, but they don't even notice the way they talk. UGH! It is hard.
But hey! I got a nice wallet from them, so it was something good out of the stress, right?!?
Anyway, I am just glad I am back home :)
My period is still late though >.>; wtf?

I don't know how old you are, but when I was much younger I had much domestic turmoil with parents, esp. a mother who thought I was fat and a father who thought I was perfect.
Point is, You must take this trip all by yourself. It is especially difficult with hormones, and I found that once I hit menopause, my ability to control my eating improved dramatically.
Use this site. Go get help. Even OA, whatever. Avoid taking to heart the comments of others regarding your looks or weight. Do what you must to be healthy.
p.s. when my mother would start her rants about whatever, I would just pretend that she was talking in Chinese and I couldn't understand a word she was saying.
I wasn't ignoring her, I just wasn't trying to make sense of it! Don't get involved.

You can't change what people say or do, only YOUR reaction to it. If they start, leave the room. Find activities that you enjoy outside the house. Do positive things that make you feel good. Good luck!
