Is this fat shaming?

I’m a proud mother of 5 and my third DC came home for Christmas. I was shocked and horrified when she (late thirties and my only daughter) came in the door that she had gained, at least, 1 stone!!! I tried to act calm and I didn’t mention anything for a while - but when I was making Christmas dinner and was plating it all up I decided to not give her mashed potatoes and pigs and blankets and instead replace them with extra veg (delicious veg mind you from Waitrose). She asked me why she had no mash or pigs and blankets and I just told her very gently that she needs to take care of her appearance and health. Apparently I was being ‘fat phobic’ but I don’t think that’s correct at all!!! Is it wrong to care about your daughter’s appearance and health all of a sudden???

Theres a lot of bored teenagers today starting rage bait threads

No one could be that rude and insensitive.

And it's pigs in blankets, not pigs and blankets.

You are either a vile, nasty cow or the person who said it was

Or, and most likely, someone on the wind up.

Evening, all. We're not really convinced everything is as described here. We're going to close the thread to new posts.

Poor effort, OP. You really should have included some slurping, guzzling, and gobbling.

They’ve probably got nothing better to do

It’s not real, at best it’s a reverse, which tbh are equally tedious.
