Hi everyone!
I just wanted to share my little experience with you guys, to get it off my chest.
I live in the UK and on Sunday it was Mother's Day, so I invited my mum round, and my boyfriend and I spent 4 hours cooking her a fantastic meal.
Anyhow, I have one of those mothers who is overweight herself, yet thinks she's fine for her age, and spends her time telling me how fat and overweight I am. I know I'm nowhere near as thin as I used to be (or as thin as she was when she was around my age, I keep being told) but that it no excuse for what happened. Basically, at several points during the day, she started grabbing and poking at my love handles and saying "What's all this?" "Ha ha!" The worse thing is, my darling boyfriend joined in the grabbing! AT THE SAME TIME!!! I hadn't realised I had quite so much fat to go round!!!!
Then when I get upset, I get accused of having no sense of humour!!!!
Basically, it was torture! And it keeps coming back to me in flashbacks!
It doesn't help that both my boyfriend and my brother (who was also there) are tall and toned. The ironic thing is that I basically look exactly like my mum, just 30lbs lighter! But you really can't call your mother a cow , especially on Mother's Day!
