Her Mother Has Always Relentlessly Bullied Her About Her Weight, And Now She Is Seeking Advice On How To Finally Make Her Mom Understand How The Comments Affect Her Self-Esteem

Apparently, her mother will not stop bringing up her weight and going about the topic in extremely inappropriate and hurtful ways.

Her mother is blunt, judgemental, and says things that she believes stem from her mother’s “mean girl” reputation.

It all began when she and her brother were eleven years old, and her mother put them both on a diet.

They remained on the diet for two years and then tapered off. Still, her mother never stopped making comments to the both of them about their size.

The comments ranged from citing health issues to claiming that “no one wants to date a fat person.” And now, she believes that both she and her brother have rock-bottom self-esteem because they were constantly degraded while growing up.

“My mother claimed she doesn’t remember this and only remembers bringing up health issues to us. It was not just health issues,” she vented.

Plus, as she has gotten older, her mother’s judgy comments have only increased in rudeness and frequency.

For instance, her mother now refers to her as “fat” in every conversation they have– which happens at least once every day.

Her mother also constantly tracks what she eats, comments on her food at every meal, and never fails to tell her that if she keeps “eating so much,” she will die.

Her mother also makes remarks about her stretch marks and even gasps dramatically whenever a stretch mark is visible. Then, her mother tells her to “look at how she is destroying her body.”

On top of all that, if she ever slips or trips, her mother blames her lack of balance on her figure. And in terms of her dating life, her mother always acts shocked whenever she reveals she has a date and claims she completes certain tasks “like a fat person.”
