(((katie)))) I understand the mom thing. =( You're right - you gotta do what is good for you (what your body is REALLY telling you). If you can learn to eat proper balanced meals and get off the caffiene pills your body will feel better and come into balance. Hard to do - i know well - but it is worth it. If you continue on like this you will set yourself up for *serious* health issues later in life. Try to tune out your mom - ignore her. Can you see a nutritonalist???
Thinking of you and really hoping you can come into balance.
