or do you just do what you can, no matter how big or little that is?
or are you possibly somewhere in-between, maybe you struggle with eating/ meals at times and other times you don't?
are you at peace with how you are handling this struggle?
or are you surrounded by people constantly telling you "you need to do better" (by doing this or that...) ???
do you have to do everything yourself (from grocery shopping to food preparation to dishes and clean up)?
or are there people 'in the building' that help you out??

I have a lot of issues around food:
first one is, I am very picky- to the point where I feel like a child who has just come home from school looking for junkfood. I don't eat fish, I don't eat veg, very rarely eat fruit (though I do like grapes), and this leads to a lot of eating of snacks.. candy, chips, chocolate, etc.
I don't eat 3 meals a day. I eat 2- breakfast and dinner, and in between times just snack.
I do all my own shopping once a week
I have had people tell me that I need to try other foods and get more variety in my diet, but I honestly don't listen. I've learned that I like what I like, and honestly if I don't like something, it isn't my problem.
I also find that I'm going off food, too. I'm just filling up a body that is grros and looks all wrong so why should I bother
