Oh my, I feel for you. Maybe it's time for some new friends. Friends are supposed to accept and support you warts and all. I don't think you need those kind of friends.
When my friends and I get together, they just accept what is. I love them for it, too. Their comments are not rude. We do joke about it at times, but they are laughing with me, not at me. And, I am the first to laugh at myself. Laughter is a big key here.
My family is aware that at times, I am not in the best of shape, and they just roll with the punches.
Oh, and wow is dating not a joy. I dated this guy for a year, and he just looked at me and said, "You're kiddin me, you haven't been to the bathroom for 10 days." After that comment, I kinda knew, he wasn't the one. 
I can run in a cycle of D, but the whole time I dated him, I was C. After I dumped him, I was normal again. lol
You really can't trade off the family, but I would certainly rethink these "so-called" friends.
