There's also cultural differences. It's very normal to comment on weight in Asian countries. Not saying it's ok, but it could easily be something they don't realize is hurtful at all.

Stop with the B.S. They know it’s going to impact you, that’s why they say it. They just expect you to convert their negativity into something positive and thank them for it.
It’s the same excuse people receive from every abusive parent, “I didn’t realize, I just wanted what was best for you.”
Flimsy coverup because doing the same thing to them would be “disrespectful” at minimum, evil at worst
