I confessed something hard to my mother today

Aug 06, 2014

I was talking with my mom today and we were discussing weight loss and what not. I had told her that I weighed myself today just for curiosity and I was surprised that I had lost 6 lbs since starting my pre-op diet 3 days ago. She told me she was proud of me and I was complaining about my slip the day before and how "my crappy eating habits got me to 423 lbs." She was like "what????" And I replied Yeah you heard me correctly.  My mom was very shocked. I haven't seen her in four years because she lives out of state.  I told her well mom I told u I had gained alot of weight. I mean that is part of the reason that I haven't gone up to see her because I was ashamed of how big I had gotten. Then I told her that wasn't the first part.....I confessed that my highest weight was 453 lbs. She started crying. It wasn't my intention to make her cry but it felt good to tell someone else besides my husband what I have been struggling with. I apologized to her for not telling her sooner but I was very ashamed. But now that I told her I feel like a weight had been lifted.  Well goodnight and onto day 4   😍
