    Most of my family is like this...they'll joke and joke until they get in a danger zone of actually offending each other...then someone usually gets their @ss tore up in an explosion...then it calms down...and the cycle starts over.....

    Good for you for "biting back"...hopefully it quells it for a bit.

    You look great, and I totally get why you responded the way you did.

    The thing I would do now, is calm it. Take the high road from now on because your point has been made. My guess is that she will will, for the most part, shut her mouth. Be the mature one and hence the one in control.
    Excellent advice I agree.

    You're right she did go too far but remember only shallow people are so mean and obviously you are strong you proved that. You look great, be proud, hold your head high and don't let her jealousy get you down and always remember: Never accept anyone's definition of you instead define and accept yourself. . . .:flowerforyou:

    hahaha, that's soo awesome! You've got the right attitude girl. Way to go. That's what you call pure jealousy. I use those comments and people from my own life as motivation to absolutely kill my workouts! :D

    great job on your progress and good for you for sticking up for yourself. sometimes it's not just about proving stuff to other people, but being able to let the other person know that you value yourself enough to not let an insult go by without addressing it.

    i bet she'll think twice about her jokes next time :wink:

    I am curious to know what your mother thought of the exchange. As a mother, I can't imagine sitting there and letting the SIL get away with being that catty. You handled it well and hopefully she will think twice about opening her mouth next time.

    urgh i hate these things. These aren't "jokes". they're not funny. you did good. Your SIL was outta line the second she touched your notebook. and her remarks about the photos were extremely horrible.

    sounds like she is jealous and passive aggressive. good for you for putting her in her place, seems like she is trying to make herself feel better by trying to bring you down. i can't stand bullies like that and hopefully she will learn to respect you and be proud of the progress you are making. is she by any chance overweight and maybe insecure? or maybe she looks really good and is becoming insecure that you are looking better than she is
