Today, I walked downstairs in a new outfit, after dieting for 3 months, and losing just over 20 pounds. My mom took one look at me and said "You'd better keep going." FML

Halloween
A failed costume, stolen candy and a very real scare: Halloween, the one night when fear is allowed.
Today, I told my mom I lost 30 pounds because of an eating disorder. She told me to keep up the good work. FML
Today, I proudly told my family I lost 15 pounds. My dad looked me up and down and said, "Well, you've got a looooong way to go." FML
Today, I complimented my mom with "Hey, I think you lost some weight." She replied with "Yeah, I think you found it." FML
Today, I hung out with some old friends for the first time since losing about 50 pounds, going from clinically obese to a healthy weight. I even bought a cute new dress for the occasion to show off my new body. No one noticed the change. FML
Today, I went to my parents' house. I recently lost about 30 lbs. My mom hugged me and said, "Aww, you're not my chubby baby girl anymore." She then said she wished I were still fat because she missed it. She's the reason I lost the weight; she used to tease and taunt me. Thanks Mom. FML
Today, after losing 20 pounds, I decided to purchase new clothes. All of the clothes at the store were still too small for me. FML
Today, I told my mom I was finally going on a diet. She let me know how proud she is of me fighting temptation, by making my favorite cookies and dinner. FML
Today, I’ve worked hard to lose ten kilos. It took daily workouts and walking 10 kms a day to make the weight finally move, and I’m the fittest I’ve been in years. My mum, after having not seen me for a while, says in front of everyone during the holidays, “Wow, those injections have worked for you!” FML
Today, my boyfriend suggested I try on some old clothes, after weeks of eating better and exercising. The good news: they fit again, and are even a little bit loose. The bad news: somehow, I look fatter now than I did before I started trying to lose weight. FML
Today, I'd finally reached my goal weight. I went into the office where my husband was, to show him the new size 8 jeans I'd bought. He responded with "I wouldn't buy any more clothes, you'll be putting the weight back on again soon." FML
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?

20 pounds is a lot, esp. in just 3 months. don't let the success stop you from maintaining it, but ignore what your mother says. she's just jealous she can't lose that much that quickly.

Good for you for losing the weight! I don't know what your moms got stuck up her butt, it sad that she can't be happy for you.

Congrats on your weight loss!! I don't know your goal but it certainly is a great achievement :) ignore the negativity and focus on you. Keep dieting the healthy way and you will get to your goal (if you haven't gotten there yet) and you will be at your ideal weight in no time. Best wishes :) -Heather

Why is it looked at as just a negative comment.. You could look at is as OPs mom wants them to live healthier.

I lost 40lbs in 4 months once, I just fasted and drank enough water to make you think that I was pre-diabetic, chewed juicy fruit, and ate a fruit roll up every day at school and thats how I did my weight loss. Anyone wanna comment on this with theirs?
