Well it sounds like your Granny is stuck in the old days. My grandparents are a lot like that too. But no one, not even her, has the right to force you to sweat to loose weight. It's unhealthy and not right. Tell her and your mom that it's really hurting you and you're proud of yourself the way you are. Try to cry, and maybe she'll realize that what she's doing is hurting you, not helping you. But always assure her that you still love her, but you don't love what she's making you do.

tell her that just because she is older then you doesnt mean that you and her share the same feelings. buy her a space heater and put it by her when she tell you too. and go in the other room. you sure it will be hot, but you can by you a fan. and mabe she talks about you and your mom because she is getting old and depressed. just ignore her. my friends granny is really old and thats all she does is talk about people. she always has to get a word in nomatter what. just ignore her or tell her to shut up. or leave the room. if you know your not fat then it shouldnt bother you. dont cut, starve yourself, or anything else just because she says stuff that you know is not true. the best thing is to ignore her though.

hope i helped.
love kayla
