How do you deal with the attitude from friends?

I'm so sick & tired of being told just to go onto How do you deal with the attitude from friends & family who are also overweight. That what I am doing is too radical & I should just "change my lifestyle" or go onto "another diet." I've tired to explain this is a health issue for me at this point. I have been on practially all diets, weight loss meds. & have gone to dieticians. They all know this. I'm unhealthy right now & feel miserable!!! This is something I need to do for my health & myself. Some say they support me, so they say. Although, in the same breath they tell me just to try it one more time. My response is don't you think I have tried everyting until this point? How do I get their support & help them to understand my point of view?
