Recently about two years ago, I reconnected with my father and step mother. I had been abused physically, and emotionally when I was a child. My father and mother divorced when I was two. (which was a good thing). My father was abusive in many ways. My father and step mother were here for Thanksgiving Holiday and we were having a great time. I had Gastric Bypass and my father is constantly commenting on my food intake, and commenting on if I should have this or that. Well, at the dinner table in front of several people he did it again. He said, "You better watch it!!" as I was serving myself. I felt embarrassed, I felt as though I can't eat in front of him because he will constantly watch me, and I don't need a babysitter. I know what I can eat, what my body can tolerate, and how much. Granted my eyes may be bigger than my stomach but it doesn't necessarily mean that I'm going to eat everything on my plate. And I have expressed this before when he would make comments and take food away
