I have been chubby since I was a kid, and always at least somewhat embarrassed and aware of it. I'm 25 now and I feel like in the last year or so it's been worse than ever. I think about it a lot, I compare my body to almost everyone I see, I hate seeing pictures of myself. I try to eat healthier but then I fail and am angry with myself but can't seem to change. (I think part of the reason might be because my mom lost a bit of weight and we've always been like the same size, and last year I had a pretty major surgery and couldn't eat much for a few weeks after so I just lost some weight and my mom made a few comments about it and it just made me feel really bad. Don't know if that's really relevant here but...)

Anyway I would love any advice on how to deal with this if anyone has some, thanks!
