Recently when I go round to my parents, my mum is always making comments about my weight. I used to be very skinny. I would starve myself and make myself sick. I was in a horrible relationship, I had no job and lived with my parents. I am now living with my lovely boyfriend I have a job and I am at university. However I’ve put on a lot of weight. I’m feel ok with myself as I was never happy when I was skinny anyway but my mum is constantly telling me my clothes don’t fit right and I need to wear longer jumpers and things. It’s not the weight that bothers me, it’s the fact that even though I’m doing so much better in life now.. that’s all she can say? I don’t think she means it nastily as she is a lovely person, but it makes me think what is the point of doing anything or achieving anything in life if at the end of the day everyone, including my own mother, only care about appearances??? It’s really getting me down :(
