My mother is giving me a complex ...
My mother saw me for the first time in 6 days and freaked a little and asked if I lost more weight,,then she looked me up and down, told me I look scrawny and then said I look like I need to work out...
Gee, thanks Mom..How am I even supposed to take that?
I had my ovarian cyst surgery with a C-section cut so I havent been able to lift weights since then..I know I need to start..
Sigh as usual lately..

Sigh is right.
Do your best to tune it out. I don't see my parents often, but most recently my mom asked what size I was wearing and when I told her...she said that I couldn't lose too much more because then we would be the same size. My reply: well, my plan is to be even smaller. (Note: my mom has major BDD. she is much smaller than she thinks she is.) and this is the woman who my entire life told me that I would look so much better if I would just lose x lbs...I've learned that these issues and comments aren't about me, it's about her and her drama and I need to let it go. I'm doing the weight loss FOR me, not her, or anyone else.
Moms...ugh. We love them, but sometimes we wonder why. :)
