My diet is absolutely terrible. I hate vegetables, and I know you're probably thinking something along the lines of "Everyone hates vegetables. Get over yourself," but it's not like that. I hate vegetables, as in, the sight of them makes me feel physically sick, worse when I imagine actually eating them.
I mean, I have friends who hate vegetables. But they still eat them. Maybe there's a few they actually like. I refuse to eat them though, especially anything green.
My parents are worried about my diet. I don't eat fruit either, though I do take a vitamin tablet when I remember. As a child, I was always someone who could eat loads and not gain a pound, but not any more, and I've started getting paranoid about my weight and diet - Not to the point of bulimia or whatever, but I do sometimes try and avoid eating one day and then pig out the next.
My parents really are trying to help me. They'll cook vegetables and constantly lecture me about my diet and the food groups and everything. I know what's healthy and what's not, and I know my diet is bad, but when they're watching me and encourging me to eat vegetables at the table at stuff, I feel ... it's hard to describe, but I feel kind of pressured, and that makes me want to try the vegetables less and less. I've tried explaining that feeling to my parents, but they just laugh and say "Yeah, right." They think I'm just being difficult, but it's not like that.
I'm probably overreacting and it's probably nothing. Like I said earlier, you're probably thinking I'm stupid. But ... I don't know. I just want to know for sure...
