The best part is ever since my mom stopped smoking she gained a shit ton of weight because she's surrounding herself with the food that she would surround me with.
>tfw
She always blamed solely me for my weight without realizing that she influenced horrible habits and her only trump card was smoking being an appetite suppressant. Now she's fatter than me and wondering why shit is happening to her.

I know I sound like a bitch for being so against my mom, but fuck if she doesn't deserve it. Before she moved away I'd always offer to go on walks with her and she always flaked on me.
She thinks most healthy meats like seafood is "gross" and the only way a vegetable appeals to her is if it's iceberg lettuce topped with ranch dressing. No wonder I got so indoctrinated with shitty habits. It just sucks that I have to pay for her fuck ups by having a shit body that isn't going to heal back without major plastic surgery.
