The Few Times I Love Being A Grown Up

When i was child i was forced to eat anything my mother served me with even if i didn't like it. Sometimes she will even have to feed me just to be sure i ate right. This usually didn't sit well with me as i will cry and often throw up my food. But my mother would not budge till she is sure that i have had enough food in my stomach.  The few times that my feeding wasn't supervised i fed my meal to the dogs and cats at home. At other times i will beg my uncle to eat some of my food when my mum isn't watching. Don't really know what my beef with food was but i knew eating food wasn't a favourite activity of mine.


As a teenager i still didn't like food that much but then my mother couldn't force it down my throat like she would when i was much younger. Most often my excuse is that i didn't  like what i have been served with and since my mother would not give me any money to buy what i want, i would go to bed on an empty stomach. She will say "God knows I offered you food, and if you died of hunger,
don't blame me" lol..


Now as matured young woman, i am a little concerned about my poor  eating habits. There has been  some times in the past that i have excessively eaten  but the times that  i have under fed is more than when i  had too much to eat. I have stirred into the fufu which was served to me about an hour ago with my hands and barely eaten a quarter of it. I am not happy about the fact that i didn't eat for my own well being but i am happy that i have been able to throw it away with my mum watching on with no interest at all. Gone were they days when this  food would have found it's way into my stomach by any means how, regardless of how  i felt about it. Gives me so much satisfaction the many things i can freely do now, especially with my food!!!! Going to get me some chocolate flavoured soy milk  drink (at least i am drinking healthy)  because guess what i have the cash to buy any food i want in this world, only i am not feeling anything right now. She can decide not to sell it to me at her shop and i will gladly buy from another... heheheheehe... Sure you all have stories of your own concerning food...Happy Sunday y'all!!!!!
