well, that's exactly what we're experiencing. we've tried many different types of conversations over the past few decades and it seems like we try and have a constructive conversation and she adds more weight to the problem.

could it be that the weight she adds after talking about it is just some sort of "insulation" from the world?

there are a million answers to this question but i ask it rhetorically, "why are people obese"? hiding from something? trying to heal some sort of internal hurting via food? genetic/physical?
