Guest guest Posted January 19, 2003 Report Share Posted January 19, 2003 Amen. If I coulda eaten (and stayed alive) on as little calories as this body can burn in a day, we'd not be hear discussing this. But, til the day I die, I will always wonder.. which came first--the disease or the odd eating habits? I'm betting that for me, the disease came first. I had weight issues before I was able to make my own food choices. My mom was a 3 meals, no snacks kinda lady. Normal food, balanced, sugar a rare event. So, I was raised into good habits, yet was already chunky by 6. Thanks, Vitalady, Inc.

Guest guest Posted January 19, 2003 Report Share Posted January 19, 2003 With me, it would more likely be potatoes. But just a whole one, because my mom would put it on my plate, cut in half and take half away. Sigh. Thanks, Vitalady, Inc.

Guest guest Posted January 20, 2003 Report Share Posted January 20, 2003 Same here........my Dad spent his whole life trying to blame my weight on some kind of something (parents divorce, mother's bad parenting).....I always wondered why he couldn't just accept that this is the way my body was designed....albeit flawed, but a reality none the less!! I have pictures of me at 2 1/2.....serios thighs already......I don't know how anyone could look at pictures of my youth and not see how I was going to be built. Now I think the problem arose when I became old enough (age 9) and was told that " sturdy " was not an acceptable build......that is where the dieting started.......along with the MO!!

Guest guest Posted January 20, 2003 Report Share Posted January 20, 2003 I second this My mother was a type 1 diabetic...sweets were almost unheard of in my family (except for birthdays and holidays) We were always fed healthy meals, fruit and cheese for snacks, yet I was an overweight child. I went on my first 2 week fast when I was 8 years old (with my mothers approval - she didn't want a fat child (she was slim)) I think the disease came first. I am also a type 2 diabetic (controlled currently thank you (grin) Terri in Temecula > Amen. > > If I coulda eaten (and stayed alive) on as little calories as this body can > burn in a day, we'd not be hear discussing this. > > But, til the day I die, I will always wonder.. which came first-- the disease > or the odd eating habits? > > I'm betting that for me, the disease came first.
