Great motivation to lose weight

My mother told me I am fat. To which I wanted to reply 'pot kettle' but didn't know how to say it in Italian.

Well, she did not say it in so many words. I was opening her bedroom window and turning my back to her, and she said 'Don't put on any more weight, you look like your grandfather'. I had to ask what he looked like and was told he was a big man. Next time I'm visiting I'll look for pictures so I can check how fat he was.

In the meantime, I am spending the month of March detoxing. Lots of fresh fruit, vegetables, meat and fish. No alcohol, sugar, dairy or grains. Need a major cleanup. Started on Monday and doing very well so far.
