Don't you think my doctor was too harsh with me about my weight?

Today I went to my doctor. I have a very strict doctor and she got on me about my weight. She saw my weight. She gave me a serious look. Now big girls are in nowadays. I am average. My doctor gave me a brutal talk. She said, "Why haven't you been doing your workouts? I can tell you haven't been workout out."
I said, "I have been working out but-"
Then she cut me off and said, "No you haven't! On our last visit which was 6 months ago, we talked about you working out, eating right and laying off the junk food which you failed to do. You're fat. You need to lose weight."
I was shocked she said that to me, "I say I'm average. My aunt says I am very lazy and only stuffing myself with junk. I've been busy and working and-"
Then she shot back at me, "That's because everyone is is fat! Cut the excuses! You are on the borderline of diabetes damn it! You're weight gain is out of control. You're being lazy and inconsiderate of yourself and you dont care. You don't care about your own body at all. Your aunt is right."
That hurt me. My aunt said the same thing about how careless I am about my body. I stormed out of the office in years! I'm not fat! I've been busy.
I am 5'9 and 280lbs. I was 250lbs last time. I did lose weight but I stopped. Diabetes runs on my dad's side big time.

Cut the garbage! Listen to your doctor and just do it! Quit making excuses. You're obese and if you don't care enough to take care of your body, then it will be your fault. Listen to your damn doctor.
@SW-User I'm not making excuses!!! Why are you taking the doctor's side?!

@PoppyLoveLala Im not taking your doctor's side. She and your aunt are right. If you actually care about yourself, you would listen to them and lose the weight. Stop with the fucking excuses. Diabetes is not a joke and it can kill you. Do you wanna live with diabetes for the rest of your life. Stop taking that as a joke and do something about that. Quit lying to yourself. People that care about you would tell you the truth, even when it hurts.
