    My mom, who has been trying and failing to lose weight for LITERALLY 15 years now, is constantly throwing this one at me. I tried, very sensitively, to get her to do what I'm doing and she totally blew me off "Oh it doesn't work like that for me, I don't have time to count calories, etc etc" and yet she is constantly doing "cleanses" and spending a bunch of money on new fitness classes that kick her butt so hard she can barely walk (she's 53). And whenever I tell her "But mom, I've lost 14 lbs ALREADY and I've really put in minimal effort compared to you." She acts like it's just no big deal at all and she makes me feel like my efforts, however small they are in comparison to hers (It's been effort for me, and probably for the average person, just cause I didn't sign up for boot camp....), don't matter at all. Like, I realize people are different, but CICO is the same no matter your age unless you have special conditions, and she doesn't.

    I just want to scream at her through her excuses "Don't you get it??? YOU'RE the reason I thought there was no hope all these years! Your constant "trying" and failing made me believe that if you couldn't do it with all the work you APPEARED to be putting in, that of course I could never do it! And now you can't even be happy for me that I can do it after all?! Really?"

    Lmao!! Now I'm mad @cho moma!! Jk funny story!! Wait...it made me smile gotta find that thread thanks bye!! Oh and keep burning!!!

    I was hoping I'd see something here, but nothing has so far.

    Struggling to smile today. Tired, hungry and want to binge - although I'm not letting myself. Work sucks and I haven't had time to the gym (because of work). But, I'm seeing my BFF tonight and I know for sure that that will make me smile.

    My first day at my new job as a community centre administrator!...A whole morning of disconnecting the old and setting up the new pc work stations ready for the start of my first week on Monday. Doesn't sound like much fun to most I'm sure but I found it very satisfying :joy: Goodbye grumpy retail customers...Hello cheery local families !:smile:

    My 11 year old got a school art project published in a local newspaper.

    And my best friend.....he texts me Good Morning and something sweet or funny every single morning, and always says Good Night. Every single day, without fail. Even this week....his mother is dying (terminal brain cancer and now colon cancer as well). He still has been doing it, even with all the crap he's dealing with. To know you are important to someone is an amazing feeling.
