My mother has recently been diagnosed with hypothyroidism, I was diagnosed with hyperthyroid graves disease a few years earlier. Since finding out she has decided to diligently watch and track all her food and excercise.
I'm really happy that she has decided to be so healthy, I even showed her my favourite food tracking apps. But she is getting obsessive about it. She tracks everything, bought a fitbit, and is constantly checking her stats throughout the day. I want to support her but I'm actually jealous.
She's my mother. She's 50. She's had 4 kids. And right now she is healthier than I am.
I still weigh 10kg less than her, but I know she is going to get skinny soon and I don't know if I can handle the idea of my own mother being better than I am.
I know that makes me a horrible person. I know.
