[quote=Anonymous]My mother had an eating disorder and she cooked meals like she was taking revenge on us. Food was mostly inedible -- things like an omelet that had been cooked so long that it was brown, everything cooked on extremely high heat, meat cooked until it was dry and hard as leather. We were also forced to finish food that was inedible. Food and eating felt like punitive activities in our family. It was all about control but it was also control being wielded by someone who believed that food was the enemy. We hid food and took all the junk food from the cupboards because we were always starving. We were also looking for comfort, I think, because meals were so unpleasant at our house. Today, I have a lot of issues around food and eating and what I feel I deserve to eat and about caring enough to make myself healthy food. I wonder if the OP is also serving inedible food. [/quote]
