[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Is trying to control your food intake immediately a diet or a food disorder? I watch what I eat and teach my kids to do the same because overeating on a regular basis is not healthy and also makes your body less nimble which makes it harder to have physical fun. Are we supposed to just shovel unlimited amounts of food in our mouth at the expense of everything else?[/quote] I don't know if you're being obtuse on purpose or what. There is a big difference between teaching your kids healthy eating and an almond mom [/quote] I think the line can be finer than you think, and a lot of moms really do think they’re just trying to instill healthy habits. It’s often related to the kid’s natural body type, too. My older sister could eat whatever she wanted and was naturally thin and inherited zero food issues from our mom. I, on the other hand, loved to eat and was naturally pudgy and it was a central focus of my relationship with my mom. Eating disorder, the whole nine yards. [/quote]
