[quote=Anonymous]This is SO familiar. My mom was weird about food and didn’t serve large enough portions or sufficient fat and protein. I was wild for sugar, probably because I was always a little hungry, and I would sneak cough drops, sugar cubes, sugar for baking, and anything else I could find. I definitely tried flavored lip balm in the hopes that it would taste good. If we had cookies in the house for a holiday but I was caught eating them, I’d be scolded and shamed. My daughter has mostly unlimited access to candy and can have a piece per day of candy from school parties/Halloween/Easter/Valentine’s day, plus random cookies or sweet food. She often forgets about the candy and we throw it out when the next holiday comes around or it becomes stale. There is always enough and she isn’t crazed for it the way I was. On the other hand, I’m 41 and I still can’t eat properly and I’m weird about overshopping for groceries and impulse-buying food.[/quote]
