[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I have a boomer mother and I relate to this so hard. Both she and my former mother in law, both in their 70s, are obsessed with weight and being thin. my mom has been scary skinny her whole life and it's a big point of pride for her. It's a life achievement that she still manages to bring up on a daily basis. Never misses a way to work in to the conversation that she is "still the same weight she was in high school". I hope when I am in my 70s I have other things to reflect back on than "staying thin."[/quote] Being the same weight as high school is a big thing in East Asia, we have people immigrated for over 30 years, weight train and eat mostly western diet and still boast about wearing t shirt from high school.[/quote] That's interesting! My mom is a white midwestern lady. [/quote]
