yeah, Becca, I didn't tell my mom that I was working on losing weight and when I saw her recently (after 20 lbs and 22 inches) she didn't say a word all day. I finally couldn't stand it and asked her if she'd noticed anything, and she said yes she had, but that was it. Didn't really ask what I was doing or encourage me. I was surprised at this, but have to shrug it off.

Cinnamo: Could this be a carry-over from a 'competition' for your father's attention? Maybe you were daddy's little girl and she felt left out, like she had to compete with you? For whatever reason, it's not very nice. Try to remind youself that it's not your shortcoming, your fault, but hers.

Hey, maybe you could use it as fuel for your willpower??
