Uphill would just be the start of it. *shakes head* And yeah. She did go on that diet with us for some time. And it worked like a charm to! All rejoice! Right? Right. Well. Mom is one of those coffee drinkers. I mean, she almost constantly has a cup of coffee in her hand during the day. That is some serious coffedrinking. And that is fine, really. Neither fat, sugar or carb in it. (She always drinks it black.) BUT! My mom thinks you should have a little something with your coffee now and then. And there is the problem. Because once she started that again, the diet we are on, won't work. You can't eat any carbs or sweets if your on that diet. Mom did. Hence it failed in the end. And of course, it wasn't her fault, she said. *head-desk*

And now she got the help of a dietitian. And that is great! Bloody marvelous, really! BUT! Again. She says she is doing like the dietitian says, but she really isn't. She has this way of reward eating. Like... "Oh, I am done all these things today, I deserve a little something." And she eats for comfort to when she has a bad day. Combine it all, and it is getting bad. :-/ She wants to do one of those surgeries where you make the stomach smaller, hence you can't eat that much. But to be allowed to do this, you have to lose weight first, to show you are serious... Catch 22 really.

Sorry about my rant. :-P
