granorexia 

a psychological disorder whereby grandmothers suffer from a distorted body image and pathological fear of acting their age. Granorexics may use dieting, self-induced vomiting, excessive exercise, and dressing in clothes more suitable for their grandchildren to highlight their 'ideal physique'. Granorexics often comment negatively about their children's and grandchildren's weight.

A. "Wow - your mom looks good for 62."

B. "Yeah, but she suffers from granorexia. She eats virtually nothing and spends all day doing situps so she can fit into her Fancy Ass jeans. I wish she would just bake my kids cookies instead of telling them about the grapefruit diet."

Gemmorexia

Definitions:

n. An insatiable, psychological appetite for the physical beauty and refractive properties of finished gemstones.

Pronunciation: /ˌdʒɛməˈrɛksiə/ (JEM-uh-REK-see-uh) Etymology: Derived from Latin gemma (gem, jewel, precious stone) + Greek -orexia (appetite, longing, desire)

Smaug (The Hobbit by J.R.R. Tolkien)

Gollum (The Lord of the Rings by J.R.R. Tolkien)

Edmond Dantès (The Count of Monte Cristo by Alexandre Dumas)

Fafnir (Volsunga Saga / Norse Mythology)

"The dowager’s gemmorexia was such that she would spend hours in a darkened room, illuminated only by the rhythmic flash of her emeralds."

"Unlike the common miser who counts his coins, the dragon’s gemmorexia was fueled by the cold, unyielding brilliance of the diamonds beneath his scales."
