I have been nothing but supportive the whole time and now that they AREN'T going to get a divorce she would like me to find her some clothes that make her look nice despite her weight. so MY BAD for asking advice. I guess I'll look somewhere else.

I may get attacked for this but I honestly dont think you should apologize to anyone here. You will never meet these people so why walk on egg shells around them. As long as your respectfull then Say whats on your mind and take a look at the advice and you judge what you belive is good advice.
If you think the peole here think your a b*tch then why should you care. They dont know how you are except for this 1 post.
I personally think that obese people are typically not healthy. The human Body is not meant to be 300lbs or even 200+ depending on the frame. My mom is overweight too. She has alot of stress and I think really can't and doesn't know how to get herself back in shape. Some people just dont have the will power to help themselves.
Im the one that has pushed her into eating right and trying to get her back in shape working out and running. Most people just accept the way they are and dont want to put in the effort.
I think the fact that your trying to help her shows you love instead of just "accepting it" and let her fall into this downward spiral.
I respect you for doing what your doing. Wish you and your mom the best.
Live laugh and love
