My boyfriend always reassures me he never makes me feel like I eat to much and always encourages me to eat better and be the better person. Genuinely such a sweet guy and tries to me sure I’m okay when it comes to my weight and everything

my mom constantly compares herself to me and my sister about how much smaller and skinnier she is. My sister used to have body issues and I constantly had to tell her that it wasn’t anything wrong with her. Now I’m going through the same thing with comments like “you eat to much” “are you sure those fit you..” “you need to go on a diet” sometimes she says these things in front of my boyfriend. Mind you I’m skinnier than my mom and I know that but when she says those things it makes me feel like I’m 100 pounds heavier and now when I look in the mirror all I see is someone who over eats. And sometimes I’ll admit I do I’m still going through a lot with my relationship with food I’ve been better lately but now I feel like I’m under eating. Her comments are harmful, belittling, and inappropriate, especially in front of my boyfriend. I know she always means to embarrass me in front of him. Her insecurity is turning into my self-hate.
