Sorry for long rant. I have been on a weight loss journey for awhile. I live at home with my family. For context, my mom is overweight and has been her whole life and my dad is but not as big as my mom. I currently went from 170lbs from when my depression hit badly and i used to be 130lbs. I struggled for years to motivate myself to lose it. I would have periods where i workout and lose weight then to giving up when dont see the progress I want.
I have been taking it more seriously now for 1-2 months and i went from 170lbs to now sitting at 151lbs.
My parents tend to make jokes mostly my mom. She has always made comments here and there like " ur shirts look tight" " u look like ur gaining weight". Today i told her "my arms look like im getting muscle huh?" and she responded with " no but i can see ur muffin top hanging over ur shirt" I then told her " i am not commenting about yours".
This frustrated me and i know i shouldnt have gave her the same energy back but it like at least im trying! I hate when people have something to say especially when they are overweight themselves and barely try to lose weight. I feel emotional typing this because your family is supposed to love you and hearing it from them can really hurt. Sometimes i think shes right what if i am not really making progress. It just i have been trying so hard and falling in love with the gym and eating clean.
