I gained the freshman 15 so I'm trying to lose it. I a week ago I saw I had lost 8 lbs (in 2 months) when I tried to be excited about it with my mom, she said I shouldn't celebrate it bc she thought it was rooted in the patriarchy or smth 🫩

I'm not overweight but I was getting close to it after coming home, and my dad has weight issues so I was working really hard (not starving, just lots of walking and intermittent fasting and stuff) to try to get back to my baseline. I'm not doing it for a man, I'm doing it so I don't let it get out of control.

No she's really shinny I think she'll like 125/130, she genuinely thinks I'm a fatass though I think (I'm 5'6, about 142)

Like maybe not seriously but she gets annoyed when I want a snack sometimes
