Thanks so much for reading and sharing your experience on fat shaming. Unfortunately our parents are the number 1 fat shamers. At some point you'll need to have a conversation with your mum about how her words affect you. I had to do the same with my dad and as an adult too... he no longer talks about my weight. Pls don't wait as long as I did because it turns into resentment. I also think our parents fat shame us because of their own insecurities. My dad was also heavier in his younger years and he lost the weight as part of his desire to ne to be healthier. I think you're just fine and please enjoy your teens ... I love that you like your weight as it is. I wish I could say the same when I was 17 too.
