Have your parents ever been disappointed in you for how much weight you’ve gained? my mom is going to be upset with me when I come home and i feel ashamed

I’ve been yoyo-ing with my weight for a while now and its time for me to stop. I’ve been lazy with time management and i need to get back to being active and healthy. I plan on doing that though.

I’m in college, and i go home over the breaks (spring break, summer break, etc) and i’m going home in a week. And i’ll admit it. I’ve gained.

I used to be smaller in high school (around 170) so i need to get back there. I feel so ashamed of myself and whats worse is that my mom is going to be so disappointed in me. I lost like 35 lbs last year and now i think i’m back up around 15 lbs. I’m a 5’4 girl and i’m about 220 lbs right now. So as you can imagine, i’m on the chubby side. Anyways, when i get home next week my mom is going to give me “the talk”.

The talk is the talk she has with me every time I gain weight (like i said, i’ve been yoyo-ing with my weight) and she says stuff like “this is not okay. Its not right, your health is the most important thing because if you don’t have control over your own health, then what do you even really have? Health is one of the most important things and you can’t take it lightly. I’m nervous because of this and you have to get back to your diet ASAP. You need to lose weight. You’ve gotten bigger and this is not okay.”

I feel horrible and embarrassed that my mom is going to see me in the body i’m in now. I don’t mean to categorize her or paint the picture that she’s this terrible person. She’s awesome, but you know how people have their “quirks” ? Well my mom’s quirk is this: she doesn’t bite her tongue when it comes to her children. Ever. If she has something to say, she’ll say it. Especially when it comes to something that we need to hear. Which I appreciate a lot, even though it can he harsh, the truth hurts and I know she has good intensions when she’s telling me I need to lose weight.

I’m so scared for spring break. Does this ever happen to anyone else, when you were embarrassed to go back to your family bc they can see how fat you are? If so how did u deal with it?
