So yesterday I spent the afternoon with my mom running some arrands.We were driving and she asked me how much I weighed and I told her, she sighed....I was thinking  umm ok.Then she asked what size cloths I was wearing and I told her,I then got an oh my god....so again I was thinking OK.Then she started saying she didnt think I was eating enough.I told her I eat what my body allows me and if I was supposed to eat more then they wouldnt have made my pouch the size they did.I was getting mad at this point but trying to bite my tongue.She then went on to tell me I was too skinny and I was " sickly" looking. WTH -everyone else tells me how wonderful and healthy I look and my own mom tells me I look sickly.UMM ok, so now Im mad and getting defensive.I tell her I take my vitamans and protien daily and do what I am supposed to do and then asked how healthy I looked at 310 lbs,that shut her up.So then she tried being funny and said " At least you had boobs then" WTF really,like having boobs is worth being fat,I dont think so.Every time she sees me,and I mean EVERY time.She makes comments about my boobs.Yesterday she wanted to take me to get fitted for a pushup bra.I said no thankyou.I was too mad and was not giving into her, Hell ya I want a push up bra,lol but Im not getting one to make her happy-UGH I know not everyone is gonna like the new way I look but my own mom,really?
Loving this new life, just trying to figure it all out and take it all in day by day!!!

My mom is most supportive person I know. So I don't have it that way, but some of my friends are giving me grief. It's their problem not ours. You are doing what you know to be right. You're learning new food habits, and trying to make the necessary changes for long term health. Don't let it get to you.

Ask her is she willing to pay for them to get done.  Sometimes that quiets them down for a minute anyway.  Hopefully it will get better.

Moms...well I completely understand.  I think they mean well, but uhhhhhhhh they can be so aggrevating.  My mother keeps asking how much I want to lose and when I tell her she always says that TOO MUCH.  "You are going to look terrible".  I just bru**** off.  She asks everytime I see her "How much have you lost?" and when I tell her she says and I quote "How are you doing it?"..... My response is generally REALLY???ARE YOU REALLY ASKING ME THAT??? Did you not go with me to the hospital??

My mother was the "Food Nazi" on my journey.  Finally one day at a couple years out and moving back to TX she asked "What can you eat now?" Looked her right back in the eye and replied, "Food!"

Never, and I mean NEVER, trust a fart!!
