I am having issues with my mil concerning my weight. Last year’s pre covid I weighed 156. This year I am 136. I had my daughter four years ago. To me, I have come a long way when it concerns my weight. Just a little history when I made my daughter before I went for my six-week check-up, she told me I was looking like a whale. She doesn’t recognize me. I am not the girl that married her son. There is always snarky comments when it comes to my weight, and it is getting too much now. Now, today she constantly fat-shames me. I am on a diet I rarely ever indulge. But I have to eat a few sweets because I suffer from low blood sugar. My husband tells me I don’t take her on. What should I do.

Your husband should tell her to back the fuck up and respect his wife!! I wouldn’t hesitate to cut her out yall lives! She sounds toxic and mentally abusive! What if she gives your kid a complex?! She is old enougj to know better but assumes cause she older you will let her get away with it!!
Your husband should say something to her.

Another thing, you grew a human! Your body is bound to to change! Love yourself. You are beautiful and you are enough!
Tell her to shut the f*ck up!!! Your weight is none of her concern as long as it isn’t causing health problems. Her bullshit is worse than a few pounds!! My mil did this to me too before we cut her out of our lives. I was 1/3 of her size!! Don’t stress about it, but have your say!!!
You should ask her if she is blind since you have went from 156 to 136, yet she continues to fat shame you. She’s coo coo. You are doing amazing!!!

First off, who tf does she think she is, she needs to stay in her lane!!!
Secondly, 136 is NOT fat, and you have lost 20 pounds! That’s absolutely amazing in its self!
Next time she says something snarky, I’d say something along the lines of your son doesn’t mind or good thing your opinion means squat to me🤷🏻♀️
Also i would maybe talk to your husband about asking her to stop, if you aren’t a confrontational person.
I ABSOLUTELY can’t stand body shaming! I am so sorry you’re having to hear stuff like this

She’s just jealous. Each time she tries shaming you thank her. Because she’s just jealous and you thanking her will get her underwear into knots. Lol sorry I’m crule and at the same time trying to be a positive thinker.

Explain to your husband that when he says nothing to her, it sends the message that he is okay with the things she says to you. He needs to stand up for you. He needs to let his mother know that he won’t tolerate anyone insulting his wife. Good luck!

Sounds like hubby is on your side and giving you green light to put a stop to it yourself.
If she continues to behave like a child treat her as one. Explain to her that it isn’t nice to make fun of or bully people. Do it lovingly tell her that as she matures intellectually it will be easier for her to not make statements that make her look so silly. If she speaks to your husband about it tell him it may be beneficial to tell her not to take you on!

First of all you are beautiful and keep that in mind second I would tell her to fuck off and her opinion isn’t needed nor requested as you should not care what the hell she thinks. When she say mean things like that you can always answer as long as you don’t look at her you are totally fine with it. And as other said ask her if that deep wrinkle is new? 
don’t mind her and don’t let her stupidity and mean behavior get to you. Congrats on losing these 20 lbs girl way to go. And don’t forget you are beautiful
Punch that b!+ch in the face!!! How dare her.

Who is she to talk about your weight?!?! She’s lucky she’s not talking to me because it would probably be the last time she said a word to me. There is no need for anyone to worry about anyone else’s weight at all and nobody needs to explain why they gained weight. I know people look at me and judge me but what they don’t realize is I have health issues also like damage to my heart,lupus,fibromyalgia and they make it hard to get out of bed some days. All that matters is you need to love yourself

What I wouldn’t give to be 136lbs again!! 
Tell her to fuck off.
Your husband needs to put her in her place. Everytime my MIL says anything disrespectful I don’t have to say anything since my husband let’s her know she is wrong and if she continues to act that way she will not be welcomed in OUR house. Good luck.

Tell her to shut up. It’s none of her business what your weight is and if she wants to be in your child’s life she better figure out how to be more positive and less negative. I sure as hell would not let my child be around someone who is a bully

I would tell your mother in law to mind her own dame business.
I bet if you punched your fist down her windpipe it would shut her up:person_shrugging:ask her how she’d like to have a fat lip and a black eye and nobody will notice her. 
what a bitch, some people really do just need a good old fashion ass beatin
I would smile super sweetly and ask her “didn’t your momma ever teach you it’s not polite to comment on someone’s weight because it’s none of your business. Worry about your own weight before you worry about mine.” Remind these woman if they have nothing nice to say then to say nothing at all. Don’t let her do that to you, you’re healthy. Xoxo
Flat out tell her to shut the fuck up
Hell no. You need to confront her next time she says something and create BOUNDRIES. MIL or not, its no ones right to say these things to you.
Your husband needs to tell his mother that she is not allowed to speak to you about anything ever again. She has lost the privilege of your company.

If you’re not supposed to say anything, why isn’t your husband standing up for you. If he won’t, then it’s time for you to say something. If she continues… forbid her from your home.
Tell her to mind her damn business. Your body is your concern, not hers.
All this advice to have your husband “put her in her place” is pointless, he was raised under that malignant psychology and still kneels to it, YOU need to decide if you and your children should continue with the damaging exposure, at her age even aggressive therapy is likely to have little effect on her toxic insights

Why is your husband allowing his mother to talk to you like that!? Also why are you allowing her to talk to you like that!? One of you need to put her in her place. That’s crazy.
136 is not heavy. 156 is not heavy. That’s craziness. I’m sorry she’s being so rude to you. Talk to your husband and ask if he would say something if you’re not comfortable doing so.
Warn her that next time she asks about your weight she will be asked to leave. Then do so, Every. Single. Time. You & hubs grab her arms, carry her out & lock the door. Does she have a key? Change the locks. Since you can’t put her in a time-out corner it’s the next best thing. You can do this at places other than your house too. You can also both refuse to communicate with her at all until she apologizes.
Shut her down she’ll think twice next time
Shes fat shaming you for being 136lbs?? I’d let it rip about any and all of her imperfections next time she says something, that’s ridiculous.

The only way to put a bully in its place to make them realize you’re not taking their shit.
Tell her to go f**k off is she perfect body size. And tell your husband to grow up and act like a man and tell his mom not to treat you that way
