My ham mother tries to give me dieting advice (longish rant) I've always struggled with my body image. I went from very overweight at 130 lbs and 4'11, at around 14 to around 79 lbs at age 15. My mom refused to use the word "eating disorder". Her way of curing me was forcing me to eat in front of her. I had to devour whole bags of mcdonalds, pizzas, junk food, snack cakes in front of her. In two months, I was back up to 120. I hated myself so much, because while 120 is considered a "healthy weight", my waistline was around 30 inches and i had insanely high body fat percentage.  I finally managed to get myself down to around 105 lbs. A perfectly average, healthy weight for my height. I do kind of want to lose a couple pounds, just because I think being in the double digits would look better. But i've been trying to remain positive about weight loss and not spiral  back into my old restrictive eating habits.  Now recently my ham mother, around 5'3 and 200 lbs, won't stop trying to give me dieting advice. When just a week ago, she was berating me for exercising too much, now she tells me that I'm not exercising ENOUGH. "You know exercise is the most important part of losing weight!"   I asked if she had any milano cookies in her lunch bag, she says "Why are you eating so much?" I'd been up for 5 hours and hadn't eaten yet. If I do eat junk food, she berates me. If I don't, she's "concerned for me". She makes me so angry. Have any of you been in a similar situation?
