My sister Isabella has, because both of our parents are just complete dumpster fires, been like a mom to me as we were growing up. She's 24, I'm 22. Now, sometimes, she can be really helpful, really motivating, and it's awesome, other times it seems like she's just out to obliterate and demolish my self-esteem.

I was over at her apartment visiting. I started venting that I wasn't happy with my job or my co-workers, just wishing I'd get promoted or something. Told her it seemed unfair that I do the work, my numbers are good, but nobody seems to recognize it and that's what discourages me from doing the extra work.

She goes, " That sounds like laziness to me. Sounds like your lazy".

It got me really angry and I told her that she( who is obese) needs to look in the mirror if she wants to take a look at laziness. She got angry, asked me to have some self-control. I told her that she needs to learn a bit of it herself so she can prevent packing on more pounds. Told her that rather than bashing me she should be getting a jog in. She said I was weight-shaming her. I made the case that she should've actually tried to help me with my issue instead of labeling me as lazy.

AITA?
