OKay now.....you have an apartment of your own and are attending
culinary classes.neither of which is cheap........sacrifice them both
for a while and use the money to help your mom! I know I said this in a
past post, but you said you are doing everything you can think of to
help.....if you still have the apartment and haven't taken a break from
college to help her, you haven't done everything.

Also, there is another diet/fitness program I would like to suggest, and
it can be done by people with health issues - it's called Body For Life.
It involves changing your diet, weight training, and aerobic activity.
Now, I used it to lose weight after my first child and for aerobic
activity, I walked for 15 minutes to start with. For weights, I used
anything that I could find that was equal weight for each hand. The
food is healthy, but you don't eat 3 meals a day, you eat 6 small
meals....it works, it really works...something that you might want ot
think of.

Thanks for the comments... My mom has done some research and looked
into her insuarnce... they specifically DONT cover anything related
with Weight problems... regardless if she is deathly sick or not. She
hardly eats sometimes, I think she is to the point she will starve
herself because she is just desperate. She doesnt over eat or under
eat. I am a culinary student in college right now, and I have studied
nutrition and just cant help her, from metabolife, to fen phen, to
aiken's, gym classes, dance classes everything. My mom is superwomen
and never sits for more than two minutes, she exausts her whole body
just to keep her mind off her weight and she cant help herself.
Watching her go up and down stairs horrifies me... She cant even come
up to see my apartment on the second floor because she cant get up the
flight of stairs... Nothing has made me sadder knowing my mom cant
come see me. I worry about her, I worry about being away from her and
I just want to help.
