Have you tried telling your dad and others that you don't want to be noticed for your physical appearance, and asking them not to comment on that? Maybe you could give them ideas of what you would like to be noticed for. It is common for family members of people wiht eating disorders to be instructed not to comment at all on appearance, because focusing there makes things worse. There has been too much focus on appearance in your life.
