My family never has food. We eat fast food every single night.?
My family never has any food in our house. Like, ever. We used to have cooked dinners every night, money, my mom was very active in me and my siblings lives. My grandma died 5 years ago when I was 12 and ever since then my mom stopped cooking, cleaning, etc. She doesn't ever leave the house. She won't even take me to my boyfriend or friend's house, which used to be a huge problem but my boyfriend has a car now so it's not as much of a problem, but he still uses a lot of gas coming to my house to get me and also having to take me home. She got laid off from her job soon after my grandma died and hasn't taken any type of initiative to get a new job, so my dad is the only one working and after bills and payments, we normally only have about $150 to last us until the next paycheck. My dad is the one that does everything, cleans, works, grocery shops (when it happens... he only does it like once every two months.) Right now we literally have no food in our house. No bread, no milk, no nothing. I eat lunch at school and then for dinner, ever single night, we will have either McDonald's, Burger King, or delivery pizza. It's ridiculous. I have a 6 year old brother who has only known this lifestyle his entire life. Whenever we do eat in, which is always just frozen meals that you put in the oven or microwave and eat, he complains that he wants "real dinner" (meaning fast-food). It's sad. I want a healthy lifestyle but I can't do it because of my family. I am 5'2" and weigh 87 pounds. I've been trying to gain weight for a year now and I can't because I'm not eating the foods I should be. My dad gets mad when I ask for a salad or something from a fastfood place because he wants me eating off the dollar menu, so I normally just get a ten piece nugget and a small fry. I don't know what to do and I'm really getting annoyed with this.
My dad eats fast food everyday for every meal??!! Help?
Hi I'm 13 and my dad is 53. He is a carpet layer so he's out on the job all day and stops at McDonalds burger king Wendy's etc. I'm worried about him. He is only a little overweight . He is 5'11 and weighs 205 lbs. I know he could loose weight but that's not the biggest concern he doesn't look fat. I know all that salt surger and bad stuff will kill him. I tell him to pack a lunch and drink water instead of soda but he rarely does. I just don't want him to die. He's In pretty good shape and went to the doctor a few months ago and said the doctor said he was healthy. Do u think this is hurting him. The rest of my family doesn't eat fast food. (my mom cooks food for us) sometimes tho he does eat dinner with us so that's pretty healthy. But eating fast food will have long term effects!!?? Help?? Thanks:)
My dads eating......?
The bane of my life - bad eaters. Absolutely hate it. I think you're going to have trouble changing him. He's been told already and he hasn't changed. Also, it depends on what age you are and the circumstances in which you find yourself confronted by his appalling table manners. Here are some things I do when faced with a bad eater. 1. Make sure to sit at the table so that you're not directly opposite. 2. Try to sit as far away as possible. 3. Have some background noise such as radio or TV. 4. Think of an excuse to leave the table whilst he gets on with it. 5. Say that you're not inviting anybody to dinner/lunch at yours because you'd be embarassed. 6. Tell him that it makes you feel revolted and you'd rather not be there. (Then it's up to him to make up his own mind about it.... ie. You're not telling him to change...... You're just telling him how his behaviour affects you and what you're going to do about it.) 7. Wear ear plugs. (Puts the message across). 8. Influence the food that is on the table. Eg. If your mother cooks - get her to cook things which are less noisey to eat. 9. Eat in a different room from him. 10. Mention how on adverts they always show ads for foods with people eating decently. 11. When watching bad eaters on TV - sigh and say how gross you think it is. 12. Mention how awful it would be if somebody was so inconsiderate as to pick their nose at the dinner table (whilst he's eating). 13. Ban chewing gum from the house on the grounds that it causes people to chew badly. 14. Next time he eats badly, switch on the tumble dryer/washing machine and stare at it. Say that you're trying to spot the difference. 15. Offer him an apple, but before giving it to him take it into the kitchen and mince it. Bring it back and say 'That's for you'. Of course, only you know how far you can go with him without him accusing you of being cheeky etc. You have my sympathies. Deepest!!!!
Is it unhealthy not to eat for 8 hours straight?
Yes, it is bad to got that long w/o eating. It slows your metabolism down, putting your body into a "starvation state". Especially, if you're not that active...which also doesn't help your metabolism increase. Eat things like fruits/veggies or high fiber stuff like cereal or bars for snacks. You also need protein foods to help support your longer term energy. This is longer sustaining energy to keep you going. You may be burning your breakfast off and having a "crash" before lunch time just because it lacks protein.
My family eats nothing but junk food and it makes me sad?
About last year I noticed I was beginning to gain weight and this past week I finally decided to take control of my health and life by eating right and exercising more. I'm not obese, but I'm not skinny. I've become addicted to bad foods like fast food. My family eats around 10 PM - Midnight every night (they get fast food more night a week than making food) and their bad habits were unfortunately passed down to me. I'm feeling so much better since I've changed and I wish they would too. It makes me extremely sad and upset now to see how much junk they actually consume. Both of my parents are overweight and extremely out of shape..not to mention have serious health problems and have to take medication for high cholesterol, high blood pressure, and some other medicines I'm not really sure about, every day. My mother smokes almost 2 packs of cigarettes a day and drinks nothing but coca cola soda and coffee with tons of sugar-- I haven't seen her drink water in years it seems. My dad quit smoking a year ago, but he eats a lot of bad food. His habits are healthier than my mom's, but they aren't at all great. They never do any physical activity whatsoever and I worry constantly about them. Heart disease and diabetes runs on both of their sides and they don't act like they care. Sure, they take their medicines, but they don't do anything else about it. If I brought my worries up to my parents, my dad would most likely listen and try to change...but my mother, now THAT's another story. She won't change for anything, even if I begged her on my hands and knees. I have the suspicion that she might have lung cancer, too. I keep asking her to get checked but she refuses. She coughs constantly and coughs up stuff all the time...her voice is horrible...she has tons of physical problems..oh, and her father, my grandfather, had lung cancer -.- I'm watching them die right in front of me because of their unhealthy habits and I don't know what to do anymore.
How do I stop my father from drinking too much?
I am facing the same problem. When I started knowing the world I am seeing him drinking before he was drinking day and night all time. Now he drinks at night but he drinks a lot. And now he is not working his mind is and empty box where all the rubbish and shitty things comes. Every day there is fight in my home. He is not a bad human being but alcohol is making him bad. I tried to talk to him when I was in studying, I asked him first why you drink? What makes you feel to drink? He gave a reason that my mom fights with him because of which he gets tension, that’s why he used to drink. It’s not true I know. But, that time I agreed with him and I said that from know in our house no one will shout no one will speak loudly we all love you a lot “Will you stop drinking now because we want you to be with us for long.” He agreed my happiness was on the peak. He stopped drinking after and I was so happy with his effort. One day after 3 months. I got a call from my father. He said I am sorry beta. I drunk today because your uncle has fought with me I got so tensed I could not control myself and I drunk. I cried a lot that day I was in hostel and not with him that day. I felt like I should be there so that it could not been happened. He started again and now the things are more worst than before.I am far away from my parents when they fight I really cry. The only reason is alcohol. I am trying hard to make him stop drinking.Alcohol makes mind shitty. Mind stop analyzing things in the correct way. Mind will be fill with negativity.If the person loves you a lot and you loves him/her than there is a chance he/ she may stop drinking alcohol. But you can not guarantee the consistency. The consistency depends upon the person. You should have to show your love continuously(at least for 1 year) until you are 100 percent sure the person will not drink again.
My dad makes me feel bad about what I eat?
You don't need to feel badly. If you were skipping eating at all, or if you were purchasing food with the intention of eating it then throwing half or more of it away, that would be paranoia and I would be a concerned parent. But since you say you've merely replaced most unhealthy foods with nutritional breakfasts, it sounds as though you're just being healthy and balanced. Is your dad overweight? Does he smoke? Ask him why he is putting undue influence on your decisions to eat normal healthy foods instead of whatever just feels good to him. Remind him that fries are extremely high in fat and sodium and tell him why it's important you've started monitoring them for yourself.
Why do i love letting my dog eat me out?
Im a 16 year old girl. One day i came home from hanging outside I had on very very little booty jean shorts so the lips of my vigina were basically almost visible. So i laid down on my bed and my dog came on the bed and started to snif my vigina area and then he started to lick my upper thighs and it felt amazing the i took my top off then my shorts and my bra and thong he started to eat me out and it felt amazing. He is a black lab so his tong is huge and wet. Also i love letting him eat out my ***, lick my *** and lick my boobs. Not to trying to brag but do you think he likes doing this to me because Im so called thick like you know nices thighs big butt and big boobies and i have a sexy camarl toe told by my old boyfriends. I do this almost everyday and night and when i gave him a bath and when Im tanning in my backyard when no one is home.
My dad drinks alcohol everyday and gets home drunk?
The only person in this world that you can change is YOU. Apparently, your mother feels this behavior is fine, or she is afraid enough to not want to deal with it. Find out what bar you father is frequenting. then, call the police and tell them that he is driving drunk every night. Tell them what his license plate numbers are, and what make, model, and color the car is. Perhaps if he gets a DWI and has to face the consequences, he might change on his own. Alcoholics have a tough time changing, and many cannot stop. I feel sorry for you, but now you will have to change you. Meaning that you will have to challenge your thoughts and keep them from allowing you to be sad or unhappy about the situation. Instead, begin to lean about why you do not want to be like this when you grow up. Find a journal to write in and tell all your feelings to. Someday, you will be on your own, and this will help you. I wish there was something to say that would be of help, but when your father drinks and mom does not want to deal with it... you are at a loss, being the youngest. Stay strong.
