Holidays and Mom...HELP!

The_Wallflower

So as Thanksgiving approaches so does my dear mom with her pushyness towards me eating. Remember, I started off my journey at 350 lbs and very unhealthy. Last year at thanksgiving I still ate the foods, but only 1 spoonful of everything (which STILL loaded my plate lol) This year my mother is getting basically angry withe because I told her I wouldn't eat desserts unless I could help modify them to make them healthier. She straight up screamed at me that 'ITS ONE DAMN DAY. YOU CAN GIVE UP YOUR STUPID DIET AND ENJOY THE FOOD FOR ONE DAY OR YOU WILL RUIN THE HOLIDAYS AGAIN!'

Now, I personally don't understand. Just because I don't wanna gorge anymore means I'm ruining the holidays? I can't make her understand that to me it's NOT just one day. It's a way of life. She's all I have, but it's just so sad.

ask her why she wants you to die.??...cause giving excess food to a previously obese person is like giving heroin to an addict or a drink to an alcoholic....it can start a binge and a downhill slide to death. I also wonder why she needs to contol you? Is she feeling guilty about not being healthy herself?? just my two bits worth

It's kind of strange. I know she's proud of me, but my mom has always been the hovering kind. I love her more than life, but it's frustrating.
