REALLY?
So yesterday I spent the afternoon with my mom running some arrands.We were driving and she asked me how much I weighed and I told her, she sighed....I was thinking umm ok.Then she asked what size cloths I was wearing and I told her,I then got an oh my god....so again I was thinking OK.Then she started saying she didnt think I was eating enough.I told her I eat what my body allows me and if I was supposed to eat more then they wouldnt have made my pouch the size they did.I was getting mad at this point but trying to bite my tongue.She then went on to tell me I was too skinny and I was " sickly" looking. WTH -everyone else tells me how wonderful and healthy I look and my own mom tells me I look sickly.UMM ok, so now Im mad and getting defensive.I tell her I take my vitamans and protien daily and do what I am supposed to do and then asked how healthy I looked at 310 lbs,that shut her up.So then she tried being funny and said " At least you had boobs then" WTF really,like having boobs is worth being fat,I dont think so.Every time she sees me,and I mean EVERY time.She makes comments about my boobs.Yesterday she wanted to take me to get fitted for a pushup bra.I said no thankyou.I was too mad and was not giving into her, Hell ya I want a push up bra,lol but Im not getting one to make her happy-UGH I know not everyone is gonna like the new way I look but my own mom,really
Loving this new life, just trying to figure it all out and take it all in day by day!!!
I know where you're coming from. My mom and I have gotten distant since my surgery and she tells me all the time that I need to go to the gym because I have bird leggs ...honestly?! My dad wont even comment on my weight loss besides "you're too skinny" and "you're losing too much" ... I'm 180.. I can walk 3 miles without getting winded... I'm HEALTHY and they dont seem happy. I say they're just jealous but ..thats just me.
I hope you find a way to deal with it because honestly, I havent. My fiance lives with me and my parents until we save up enough for an apartment and he sees the attitudes of ppl changing as well. HIS mother keeps pushing me to have my plastics done but she wants me to have a boob job and everything... grr. Hang in there hun! You're not alone in your boat of frustration lol
