My mom has become a health nut and it’s ruining our relationship. All she talks about is nutrition.She works out all the time and gets upset if anyone is idle. She’s constantly calorie counting everyone in the household. I can’t even enjoy a meal anymore

this is not normal. she needs a therapist. this sounds like severe OCD. she may also have an eating disorder

I have a mom like this and it’s really hard. It wasn’t until I told her to stop obsessing over a body that isn’t her’s in anger that she got the point (I do regret being angry). Now she’s saying behind the disguise of health. I’m really sorry that’s happening to you though. I know how stressful it can be and what it does to you
