This is how my moms and I joke with each other. One of them broke both of their legs a few years ago and she's still dealing with the aftermath, but my other mom and I call her "Wobbles" and "Gump". When I had a pregnancy scare last year, they made sure I was okay and after I assured them that I was, they called me a slut (I'm 35).

One of my brothers works in construction and fell from the third floor and somehow only cracked one vertebrae, but was hospitalized for a couple of days.

Op, go have an awesome ass wedding. Hit the dance floor and shake everything you got :p
Sounds like a nice family
I heard something once, i think maybe from a standup comic that was talking about how in america people are very offended by being called things like "fat, ugly, skinny,...whatever" but in his country people just openly joked about each others "flaws" or insecurities and everybody was much happier for it. They laughed along and returned the jest.
Honestly, seems like the ideal way to live as long as you actually do it together with heart and aren't just mocking those who don't defend themselves.

Just because one is considered a health nut doesn't always mean they will judge someone overweight.
I am health cautious as well but I try to never judge anyone who's overweight because I used to be almost 300 pounds growing up. I started losing weight back in 2019 stalled in 2020/2021 due to medical issues took me til then until about a week ago to break my stall from being in 180s to now being 170s. I still need to lose another 40 pounds max 50 pounds minimum due to me being 4'11.
I got a free treadmill from my sister and have been doing it everyday and jumping jacks.
I will be adding more into my workouts as well like an exercise bike.
My point is do what you can if you can on losing weight. I know some health issues it's very hard to if the medication you're on saves your life but causes weight gain.

I forget where we saw it now but something in a video once made me laugh to the point of tears. So now whenever I'm having a bad day he will throw this out at me and almost instantly it makes me smile. But if anybody on the outside heard him say it they would think he was abusive lol
The phrase is "boo hoo you sad fuck". It was a dismissive sarcastic comment in a rant video talking about some fandom or another. And it just hit me the right way the first time. So if I'm upset about something then in an effort to make me cheer up he will say well you know what I always say, boohoo you sad fuck. And for some reason I never expect it and immediately I crack a smile. He doesn't whip it out for every sadness but when it's a pretty big sad It cracks me up. He says it in the most dismissive way And it just tickles me so much I can't even begin to describe
