[quote=Anonymous]I grew up in an east coast suburb that was pretty white and middle class. But I'm not sure it really mattered where I lived, because I was raised by what I guess these days would be called an "almond mom" who was always on a diet, which meant that we were all on a diet. She cycled between WW, Jenny Craig, and for a long stretch in the late 80s, Deal-A-Meal. So much cottage cheese, so many "lite" foods, so many portioning cups and scales. At the time I knew we ate differently than most people but it's only as an adult that I really understand how much I was affected by her issues around food and weight. I have worked had to not pass those things on to my own kids.[/quote]
