Is my mom calling me fat???

Question

So basically. I have bigger thighs and a booty but my stomach is pretty flat. Im not over weight, I’m 5”1 and 130 lbs exactly. At least I don’t look overweight nor think that is overweight? But today my mom said I need to cut down all the sugar in coffee that I drink and that I’m getting my grandmas thighs and booty and that I don’t want and I should start cutting down and that it’s just “food for a thought” . I mean I eat fairly healthy the only thing I really have that has a lot of sugar intake is my coffee?? I mean I’ve eaten super healthy before and I know I can cut down but it kinda hurt my feelings... does it sound like she was calling me fat?

Answer

Yes and it sounds like she is jealous as well

Answer

Sometimes our words can be hurtful, but I’m betting your mom had good intentions. She’s not calling you fat, but she wants you to know what we eat and our habits will have an effect. It was more of a warning— like, ‘be careful or you will BECOME fat.’ 
TBH, the sugar in those drinks IS actually pretty bad for you. All things in moderation tho ❤️

Answer

I totally understand how this can be taken bad, but my mom says the same thing, and she says it because she’s worried about how it will effect me. Definitely tell your mom how you feel

Answer

Wow, your mom doesn't understand how eating disorders start. That's really ignorant, harmful, deeply unhealthy advice... it's very fat phobic. 
Like, you sound completely fine, you shouldn't be concerned about weight or any of that. 
Maybe you should be concerned your mom had an unhealthy view of herself and diet... 
I'd say it doesn't sound like you should change anything. Viewing foods as bad or off limits actually proves more destructive than just eating intuitively, which it sounds like you are doing just fine. 
It's alright to have a big butt & thighs, too, I believe that body type is in style, not that body types should be in style, but hey, that's a plus for you right now lol. I personally think that body type is really gorgeous. (Im your height but thin like a strand of spaghetti. I don't overthink weight or bmi anymore, people are just different.)
It's way healthier to eat intuitively and not fret over weight, than to diet and fuck up your metabolism, your mind & your health.

Answer

I feel like moms project their insecurities on their daughters. I'm at a completely healthy weight and my mother always comments about how I look big or should lose weight to get my high school figure back. Tune your mother out. This is a recent photo of me.
