Why does my mom think that I am the spitting image of her?

She thinks that we have all the same good and bad qualities. She has anxiety and depression issues, so she automatically assumes that I do. She is generally a nice person, so she automatically assumes that I am.
And worst of all, she thinks that I have the same issues with being overweight. Her constant encouragement to stay on a healthy diet caused me to become obessed. Anorexic. Then I gained the weight all back and even now, at my heaviest weight ever, I'm still aparently not fat (see my other question. http://answers.yahoo.com/question/index;_ylt=AsSCiHiaIi2cnvA6RZE8FHDsy6IX;_ylv=3?qid=20090920092219AA0B5WS)
I don't think she realizes just how much this affects me. Everytime I try to talk to her about it, she agrees to stop, but then she just starts it up again. I hate it.
Help me?
