She always does things and than says she never did. She never does try to poison me, but she so does not get the diet. I keep trying to keep her away from that nasty, nasty Atkins diet but she won't do it. The funny thing is that she doesn't even realize what a carb is! SHe looked at a pack of swedish fish one day and said, oh , there are carbs in this? And I was like, duh mom, what do you think sugar is? That is the carb you are SUPPOSED to avoid! She thinks she skips the bread and potatoes and is automatically low carb. ARgh.
As much as I have in detail explained the way I eat to her, she always asks stupid questions. "You can eat bread?" "Pumpkin is ok for you?" "What is the name of a cake that is preprepared I can buy for your birthday?"
or says things like, "Well you can't eat anything!"
"Yes, I can mom, I eat more variety and more nutritious than ever before."
and my favorite...
"You need to make sure you don't get a protein deficiency!"
"mom, I will get sick from a protein deficiency LONG after you get sick and die from eating McDonalds and KFC every day."
SHe has never tried to posion me though! Except on easter I saw soymilk in her fridge and assumed that she used it in the mashed potatoes... I was wrong!
Enough mom complaining from me!
I just found out BFs mom was scrambling last minute to make things for me, but he didn't know exactly what I eat to tell her. He should know by now, but he is too lazy to try and understand, but I don't blame him. Poor guy, I am his second long term relationship with an IBSer. Atleast I do something about it, so he is ok with it.
