Answer 1

Tell your Dad that he needs to be careful with his comments.  Criticisms made to girls about their weight can cause long term damage, not to mention eating disorders, if made carelessly.

You're more grown up than HIM!

Answer 2

Dont focus on the weight issue. You should weight more than your brother since you are older. Your dad is being insensitive and probably doesnt realize it. most men dont. If yuo get the chance let him know how his comments make you feel. This can help begin to heal your relationship.  

Answer 3

Your dad is a jerk. As long as your healthy thats all he should be concerned about.
