Thanks be and sky for your input ...and yes I think the problem is she has her own issues with eating as well.

She has put on weight and isn't happy with herself at the moment.

It's just at this time in my life I can't handle her issues...well actually I can't handle those kinds period.

I think she should know better ..and in fact I think she does, and that's where she crosses the line.

I guess it's good I can vent here and maybe I should just tune her out.

My mom is not one you can reason too easily with. She doesn't ever see herself as being "wrong" or doing anything that isn't right ... lol i guess she's in a win win for herself... huh

Thanks tho for your help. ..I appreciate you listening and writing me back.
