Is what my mother doing unhealthy?

Almost every day she will eat nothing, or maybe one meal, but she drinks coffee all day from the moment she wakes and says that she is never hungry. She is a little overweight for her height, 6’0” and weighs a 193lbs so is she starving herself and should she try to eat more or is it alright that she does eat like that?

Answer #1

That is very unhealthy for her body. Even if she wants to loose weight she should eat a salad and healthy items. If she keeps eating like this her stomach will keep shrinking and then she won’t be hungry at all.

Answer #2

Well she doesnt want to loose weight, she just leads a really busy lifestyle and says she doesnt have time to eat.

Answer #3

Yea she def has to make time to eat their esp if she leads a busy life she needs healthy foods to keep her energy up and also should be taking vitamins

Answer #4

alright thank you, i will recommended it to her, she seems very healthy though is the weird part.

Answer #5

Your welcome and From the outside but you don’t know what’s going on or happening within the stomach. and I would assume her stomach alrdy has shrunk, that’s why she’s not hungry, which can be very very harmful

Answer #6

That is a very bad diet. What she is doing is crashing on caffeine. I would def suggest at least having small meals in between her coffee breaks. Like an apple, a yogurt, a salad, perhaps even some soup for lunch. I had a hectic day at work when I had my own business but I found 30 mins for lunch! I would get some soup or some salad at the salad bar or some rice & mixed vegi’s to make sure i wouldnt leave work with the hugest migraine on the train ride back home. Talk to your mom, explain that to her…if she doesnt eat proper 3 square meals what she is doing is causing the inner lining of her stomach to eat itself. That is right…it will cause her more damage & have her wind up in the ER for medical attention. Not only will she lose time at work, but she might lose her health in the process as well. If she doesnt stop starving herself now, she will wind up with an ulcer and begin to vomit when she does want to eat! I strongly suggest you make her listen. Work or no work, she has got to change her eating habits.

Good luck, hope this helps!

Answer #7

That’s a lot of caffeine for a mostly empty stomach! She should drink more water than any other liquid. But slooowwwwwllllyyyyy because I stopped drinking coffee in the morning and got a bad headache for a week

Answer #8
