years ago, I gained almost 100lbs…pounds that I’m, thankfully, starting to lose to get back to my appropriate weight. This subreddit focuses on the "SHAYTARDS" family, who have been putting their life on the Internet for more than 5 years.
In spite of two incomes we lived on a shoestring budget, so we had a huge garden that supplied much of our produce for the year via freezing. I remember eating cold pasta directly out of the fridge, and so quickly that it gave me hiccups, well into my late adolescent years. It was also the mindset that helped me abandon anorexia in favor of being more active and learning to love food so much that I professionally cooked to pay for college! We would all sit down to eat, but some days it was almost like torture knowing I would be forced to eat everything. I know that especially little girls, they learn to eat by what they are seeing in their parents, so I want to teach my kids a respectful love of food and their bodies.I did watch my dad struggle with dieting all of his life and I was on the receiving end of many a “well meaning”, but not quite kind, comments from my mom about what I should/should not be doing to lose weight.
Despite all this, I did not struggle with my weight as a child because the majority of the time my mother restricted my eating and by restricted, I mean she did not allow us to eat junk.

I was discussing this with a co-worker recently and she told me that I needed to take responsibility for being overweight and I do. My aha moment with your post is that I’ve realized I need to look back and wade through the past to face some of the issues that contributed to my lack of self esteem.
Right now I am trying to not binge and to stay away from anything sugary or processed but it’s hard.In the last 3 years, homelessness has increased by 128% meaning people will struggle to access good, nutritious food. I first met Stefano in the UK when I was studying there and attended one of his kettlebell classes, he is the only person that has helped me lose weight and change my mentality when it comes to living a high quality life. On the flip side, I have a friend who I think has an obsession to not gain her weight back so she exercises incessantly and I think that’s just as damaging for her little girl to see that as well.
Where there are adult conversations, and nice lunches, and people who understand that vomiting down your top six times a day is considered poor etiquette. She’s still at it-and now she looks great having lost 60lbs or so in the last 2years-but not sure it will stick since she did it by restricting to 500calories per day. My mom was overweight while I was growing up…my father was active and passionate, but as he changed jobs and introduced more stress into his life, he bgan to pick up my mom’s eating habits and he is now overweight as well.
I started turning a critcal eye to myself after my mom lost 200 lbs (she’s gain back most it in the last 10 years). Those parents who struggle with their weight, what do you do to try to make sure your children have a more healthy relationship with food?
