I have very slowly been losing weight. Mum has been making comments but I mostly downplayed it, not looking for compliments or mentioning it or anything.

Today she told me I'm actually beautiful now. Jeese... thanks mum. Only took 30 something years.

Every time she moaned at me for being fat it was always followed by "of course it's mainly about health". No , it's not. At least not to her.

I think the boomer generation has some really ingrained and sad mentalities regarding weight. They’re a product of the messaging they grew up with.

FFS! YANBU what a bitch 😬

Obviously no offence as she's your mum etc. But she's not mine so it feels justified 😂
