[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]This is just a vent. My girlfriend is very strict with her eating habits. She used to suffer from pcos and weight issues a couple do years before we met. She reversed it and lossy the weight by eating very healthy and exercise. I’m a fit guy who loves being healthy and active, but she takes it to the extreme, and it’s really hard keeping up with her standards. Every eeekdn it’s a batttle do where to eat because she can’t eat this or that. I am happy that she is taking care of herself, but I don’t know how long I can deal with this. She does have a gluten allergy but doesn’t eat dairy ( or very little), anything processed, and no meat besides chicken. I bought her candy for Halloween and she refused to eat because of the unhealthy fats, sugar, and chemicals. I suggest pizza, but no because too much diary and tomatoes are very inflammatory to the body. I suggest going out the bar with friends, and we go, but I know she won’t have a good time because she rarely drinks ( maybe a glass of red wine once a month). I wonder if anyone else can relate. [/quote] Dear OP - This may be a true case of "it's not you, it's me." I don't think either of your are "wrong" but if you can't accept this about her, you aren't right for her. Science is close to proving - or has proven - that our gut health determines MANY illnesses and disease states that were never considered in the past ... including many those that lead to clinical depression, cancers, metabolic disorders, etic. They are real conditions and when there is an imbalance, your brain struggles to maintain balance. She is trying to create balance. And I GET IT. It can be SUPER annoying. I have a friend who is gluten-free and sometimes I want to shut her in a closet because she finds away to steer conversations towards her gluten-free life style, even if we're discussing something completely unrelated, HA! So with this is mind, perhaps you could meet your GF halfway. If she's like my friend and talks about it too much than tell her... it doesn't mean you can't accommodate her needs but maybe it's having to hear about it all the time. If I'm correct, you need to make it clear that you're not trying to sabotage her efforts or discounting her health - that you're more than willing to support her if it isn't the center of conversation all the time.
