Embarrassed of Weight Loss Talk?

I'm sure this might be a common topic or fear amongst the weight loss community, but just looking for some advice and positivity!

I have been overweight for 90% of my life - seriously since like the 1st grade haha. My parents made it known I needed to lose weight around 6th grade but my family as a whole was unhealthy and I was already had bad habits at that point. As you can imagine, growing up fat wasn't easy and I tried a million ways to lose weight throughout middle school and high school but always got silly comments from my parents, dad especially, anytime I tried. For example, if I got a salad he'd say "Wow no burger this time? Trying again?" Or when he'd catch me working out in my room he'd laugh about it and bring it up to family later as a joke.

Jump to my 20s, still obese, but in a much better mindset now and cutoff a lot of family. I now have a family of my own and my husband loves me no matter what, he's never said one negative thing about my body and wants me to do what makes me happy. I mention weight loss or exercise sometimes and he is so supportive but why am I so freaking embarrassed?? I want to hide anytime I try making a healthy choice or hide my exercise equipment. How do I fix this? 😢 help.
