My mom has always looked down on over weight people and sees gaining weight as a sign of weakness and laziness. She's always been rough on me for having weight problems, but then would tell me I could never be skinny because I was meant to be overweight, it's my body type. Well, I've lost 58 pounds and she's easily gained 40 pounds in this last year. She's 5'1. I feel smug, happy that she isn't immune to weight gain. Part of me wants to ask her if she wants my clothes that are too big now. Still waiting for her to say something nice about my weight loss or at least acknowledge that I've gotten healthier. Let's just say I won't be holding my breath.1

I binged last night on half a pint and coke... Coke is what really does me in. It's almost an addiction.Kelll12123 wrote: »I ate over half a carton of ice cream in one sitting last week

^ My grandma was like that. She has a hard time gaining weight and she would ask me, "I can't seem to gain weight, what do you eat, Amber?" And I wasn't even overweight at the time!0

Bought my wedding dress yesterday and used that as an excuse to throw myself off the wagon. Humpty Dumpty cheese sticks (honestly I could live of them. Seriously snack food of the gods!), Lays original chips, beer, and today I made brownies. No regrets, just indigestion.0

What you should do is go buy an article of clothing that is to big for you, but not big enough for her. Then give it to her as your big clothes, and watch her struggle to button it.0 -

I admire your ability to hold your tongue thus far. In a world where people have some introspection, she would be feeling a bit bad now about how she treated you before now that she knows how it feels to be overweight. Ideally, she'd come clean and apologize. If she's like some people, though, she is really annoyed that roles have reversed and is dreading the moment you point it out. I had the same situation with my mom and sister, but never pointed it out because I knew their reaction would be to go on the offensive with teeth and claws out.

Everytime my fiancé and I would go to his grandmother's for family gatherings, she would rub his belly, look me right in the eye and say "You really must feed him well!" Pissed me off so much.

My grandma used to try and give her bigger clothes to my mother saying whatever item "was a mile too big for her". Used to totally tick my mom off. THEN, after my mom lost weight she started doing the same thing to ME! "Honey, do you want these jeans?" and add in "I hope that doesn't hurt your feelings?" Grrrrrr. Guess the apple doesn't fall far from the tree.0 -
I finally thought I was one of those people who could have 2 tablespoons of peanut butter and be done with it. I've learned that sadly I'm not. I brought home a Costco size jar of the stuff last week and finished it off yesterday. A whole jar in one week. Gross, yet so satisfying. Peanut butter is now banished. I'm back on track and over it.0

Peanut butter being high calorie is one of the cruelest things ever. The day I learned that I could eat it straight from the jar (thanks Dee from What's Happening) was the best and worst day of my life.0

I live with someone who is a "clean eater" who bought Velveeta and has been pushing me to eat some "so the block doesn't go to waste." Had my first serving in an omelet tonight . . .there was maybe half the block gone. Probably eaten over the sink in the dark.
Calorie-wise, it's better than organic raw-milk cheddar by 40/gram. Works for my way of eating.0 -
Same! My goal is to get thin enough that my sister will stop stealing my pants. (Every time she comes goes back to college my clothes disappear with her -_-)0 -
I peed during my workout yesterday and kept working out, hoping no one would notice...1
