I'm trying to exercise daily. I was doing fairly well until I sprained my ankle 2 weeks ago but now I'm getting back on the horse. Today I walked over a mile with my arm weights that are about 22lbs total. I was out of shape and it was hard on my arms. I also did my 30 situps. I'm also going to drink a lot of water and try to eat healthy. I do tend to have a sweet tooth but I'm cutting...
Lots of love

I'd suggest writting your mum a letter, doesn't matter how long winded it is, doesn't need to be a work of art, just spill everything you're feeling onto the paper and keep writting till you have nothing more to say. Be careful though, i know your feeling hurt, but don't tell her you hate her or anything like that, don't just spill words of anger because anger doesn't get us anywhere. Dig deeper, and speak your emotions, your hurt. Remember that in this life, family is the most precious gift we are given, if we turn our backs on them, we have nothing. Your mum needs your help to get through this problem with you, i'm sure she wants nothing more than to have a healthy relationship with you and though it will take work, it will make your life soooo much better knowing your mum is always there for you.
I hope something i said might help you and your mum a little bit?
Love and best. xox
Do you have any close friends that you can talk to about the problem - on an ongoing basis? Have you tried writing it all down in a journal on a regular basis? I know this doesn't change the way your mum reacts, but getting it out and off your chest can really make a difference.
Think of it this way - you only have a couple more years at school. Can you tough it out until you leave home? Sometimes, when things got really bad for me, the knowledge that in less than a year or two I would out of my so-called "home" was a real comfort.
Stay strong, kia kaha as we say in NZ. :)
