Oh my god, that just spells eating disorder for your child. Why? Because your child has the “fat” genes coming from you and your mom. If your mom was able to reach such a high weight, a big part of it is genetic (via different mechanisms, including hormones, hunger cues, endorphin release related to food ingestion and many others). It's simply a fact that obesity is a multi-factor disease and “will power” ALONE has little impact. Now if your kid has a very healthy upbringing he or she may be at a healthy weight by 18, but may turn to food at 23 or 30 when they come across real life obstacles and their body and brain reminds them that they can feel better with a bit of food. This mechanism that eventually can lead to food addiction and eating disorders will likely be triggered much earlier if your wife is constantly fat shaming anyone who isn't below a certain restrictive BMI, which your kid likely won't be all the time because children have normal periods when they are pudgier for good reason, like as a baby or in pre-adolescence. You need to understand that your wife's thinking is a very real reason why your kid will most likely end up with low self-esteem, an eating disorder and the kick-off of the food addiction mechanism. The best thing you can do for a child that is genetically predisposed to becoming overweight, which your child will definitely be, is to approach weight from a healthy place psychologically and NOT via fat-shaming. Your wife needs a therapist because her views are very dangerous. Better your kid end up at the limit between normal and overweight BMI by 18, but with a healthy mind and strong self-confidence, than they end up crash-dieting, with a shattered sense of self-worth and on the way to disordered eating. Your wife needs psychological help to process her father's death. Blaming her father for his own death from a multi-factorial disease is a pretty cruel stance and speaks to her lack of empathy, now very apparent in how she sees your mom. What is she going to do when you gain weight because you injure your spine and can't move for 6 months or you have thyroid cancer and her remove your thyroid (invariably leading to weight gain)? She's going to cut you out of your daughter's life too?
We’re together for almost a year.. I know he had asthma cuz of his puffer but not severe allergies like this probably because we were in a different setting near the forest/ beach.
Well part of being in a relationship is making time for each other. Its a good chance for you both to see if the relationship is going to work.
