    My dad put me on a diet that was grapefruit and rye toast every morning. Just the thought of it now makes me want to stab.

    No, but I bet you a lot more people were punished for not eating all their food.

    I was on weight watchers at 11 or 12. I have been messed up about my weight ever since. Now at 52 years old I think I have it together. I am doing well on mfp and consider it a life long dedication to health rather than a diet. I am half way to my first goal of 50lbs and I know I will get there...

    Punished? No. Threatened? Yes. But I've tortured the hell out of others to make them lose weight also. That's the military for ya.

    When I was 18 my mom would ground me for the wknd if I didn't lose so much weight each week. I was 200. Got down to 170. I am now 275 and 35 yo.

    Not the thread I was hoping for.

    My mind went elsewhere. :devil:

    Yeah, mine too. I'm a bit disappointed :laugh:

    On October 19th, 2003 I gained approximately 125 lbs. I have been punished by her every day since.

    FANtastic!

    But, as a serious answer ... I wasn't ever punished for putting on weight, but there were all sorts of comments when I was a teenager:

    "You're not fat now, but if you keep eating like that ..."
    "Just remember, a minute on the lips, a lifetime on the hips."
    "You're what I would call 'pleasantly plump'."

    etc.

    I've never been very overweight, but have struggled with my body image for 20+ years because of those comments.

    Is that not a compliment?

    Well, I am single and an adult so I still get to make my own rules for now. Just think how much weight I would lose if I got "punished" for actually losing weight... ;)

    Unless punishment means she is withholding "affection" - I'm pretty sure I would be losing weight if that were the case.

    My mom would constantly nag me about my weight, the doctors would say all my problems were weight related and clothes shopping sucks still to this day.

    :grumble:

    This. I was forced to clean the plate before leaving the table, then got harassed by family for putting on weight.
