Is there no way i can help my mother if she wont take my opinions seriously?!


Question: Is there no way i can help my mother if she wont take my opinions seriously!?
she is obese, and blames it on her genes and from her age

then i see her sitting in her leather chair all day, in her "control center" where she has the remote on hand, her laptop open, and often a snack on the side!.

when she thinks she's dieting, she'll go buy a bunch of health food and eat it in 2-3 days

her idea of a healthy snack is multigrain chips instead of the normal kind!. she thinks that just because they're mutigrain that they're less fat and she can eat as much as she wants!.

she never takes me seriously when i try to help her, what can i do!!?Www@Answer-Health@Com


Answers:
that's a major issue to her health! i know what you're talking about though!. i have a friend whose house is chocked full of junk food!. she has a separate fridge for sodas!. and her idea of healthy is diet instead of regular soda, or sunchips

go out for a walk with her in the mornings!. sign both of you up for a local gym membership!. or go to the gym in the library!.

but first and foremost teach her the art of moderation!. tell her the price of food is going up and she can save $ doing this!

YOU buy the groceries!. and make sure the food is all healthy!. no more twinkies or krispy creme!. teach her that fruits are her friends!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

Yes, genes play a part -- a small part!. However, choices we make are much more responsible!. What you can do is continue serving as a positive role model for her!. Eat healthy, get sufficient exercise, and if you have any control of the food brought into house, make smart decisions!.

Remember also that metabolism does slow as we age, so losing weight will take longer for your mom than for you!. Be supportive and encouraging:)Www@Answer-Health@Com
