Do I have an eating disorder?

Question

It all started when I was young and I was my moms only daughter..she let me away with everything..including not eating healthy foods..so i've grow up and am 16 now and still don't eat hardly any fruits ever..maybe an apple once in a blue moon..and for veggies its corn and potatoes..sometimes carrots if there cooked..I hate eating infront of people because I eat so slow..and not alot of veggies or fruits..I try to try new foods..I also don't eat stuff like salad or macaroni salad..I am short and think its b/c I never ate really healthy..im about 5"1 and weigh about 97 pounds..not 2 skinny i guess..and am trying to gain weight..I eat a lot of food most of the time...Am I short because I didn't eat health, do i have an eating disorder, and how do I start to like new foods??

Answer 1

You are thin now even though you don't eat right, but that will catch up with you. Your eating habits will cause you to be unhealthy and overweight possibly in the future.

Just slowly start to change one habit at a time.

Some people just don't like to eat. If you want to get your full serving of fruits and vegetables in one sitting - the juice! Not boughten juice. get a juicer and juice carrots, cucumber, oranges, pears - everything! It takes about 10 seconds to drink all the enzymes and vitamins in a pound of fruit and veggies.

This is disease curing stuff as well.

From what I'm getting, it does sound like you have an eating disorder. Instead of trying to gain weight, just accept yourself for you. Eat you veggies. Eating junk foods, your not only producing fat into your body, you're also opening yourself up and diagnosing to diseases from disorderly eating. And because you're so old and you're in the habit for having bad eating habits, it's going to be harder for you to stop and slow down.Try accepting healthier foods by keeping an open mind, just know that this is beneficial to you and your life. eating the way you do, you're basically slowly killing yourself, and you don't want that. Just accept the fact you probably have a fast metabolism no matter how much you eat. Live your life in a good healthy way and don't worry about your weight.
Also, don't worry about how slow or how fast you eat, eat comfortably at your own pace don't worry about what others may think, you don't want to choke. Do you?

Answer 4

You're short because it's in your genetics, You don't have an eating disorder, you're just very picky, which isn't a disorder, and really you just have to get past the mental block that you have in order to start eating new foods.

Answer 5

I don't think you have an eating disorder. I don't eat alot of fruits and veggies either.
As long as you are eating and not purging or starving yourself you are fine.
If you want to put more fruit in your diet try making fruit smoothies in a blender. They are yummy and refreashing.

Answer 6

You seem like you have a fast matabolism, not an eating disorder. Jut try eating more snaks during the day. You DON'T have to try to force yourself to eat either- cus you'll make yourself sick. You sound like you are healthy- are you happy? Like I said, try to eat snacks if you feel like you wanna gain weight. good luck hun.
