Hi,
I'm so sorry you are feeling so miserable right now.
Your mother sounds like an insenstive clod.
I think enlisting your ex's aid in helping your d lose weight in a very good idea. Also, have you tried getting her involved with a gym?
Your mother said and did a lot of insensitive things last night... that doesn't prove you are crazy, it proves the people that raised you (HER!) are crazy.
I hope you are hanging in there. It was nice chatting with you last night.
