Today, I received a box in the mail from my mom which I assumed was a care package. It was a scale to encourage me to lose weight. FML

Last call, bad decisions and 3 a.m. texts you'll regret until noon. Cheers.
Today, I decided to go on a diet to lose some weight before summer. This was followed by the arrival of a giant parcel full of candy from my mother. FML
Today, I received a package. When my mom asked what I had bought, I had told her that I had ordered dumbbells and was going to start lifting. She laughed her way into the kitchen. FML
Today, my mom signed me up for Weight Watchers as a surprise birthday present. FML
Today, I found out that I've been using a "Trick Scale" that my family bought to boost my self esteem so I'd think I was losing weight. I found this out at my physical, where I learned I have actually gained ten pounds. FML
Today, I received an email with a link to a story about a man who lost 650 pounds. I ignored it, until I saw who sent it. My mom, with the message "Maybe there's hope for you." FML
Today, after several months of eating right, exercising, and weight loss, my mother has yet again arrived at my house, unannounced and with a very sugary cake. She's been doing this most weeks since I lost 50 pounds. FML
Today, I bought myself a Crumbl cookie as a treat for losing 20lbs. Upon seeing it, my mom screamed at me for cheating on my diet and how I was going to "gain all the weight back" and insisted she eat some of it to "help me out." She left behind a tiny morsel of the cookie with a chocolate chip chunk. FML
Today, I finally got the wedding dress I've been waiting months to see. It turns out that my mom ordered the dress 2 sizes smaller than my size, this way it will be "an incentive to lose weight". FML
Today, for my birthday, my friend bought me a book on how to lose weight. FML
Today, my mother offered to give my overweight girlfriend the workout DVDs that she no longer needs. FML

Free stuff from mom, why are you complaining? Motive is irrelevant. Free stuff.

shes concerned about you. probably more than you are your self. it's not a bad thing that your mother cares about you. I know it's not the best way telling someone that they need to lose weight by sending them a scale, but the least you can do is try, and she's your mother, so she gets a free pass to say what she likes. even if it means sending a scale...... I hope you took the positive way of this outcome.
