I've been an incredibly picky eater my entire life. My diet is pretty much chicken, occasional red meat, cheese and bread in different combinations, because even the idea of putting certain foods and textures in my mouth (a lot of vegetables, pasta of any kind, fish) makes me feel physically ill. Like, gag-and-spit it out, ill. It almost SCARES me, as stupid as that sounds, and I've never known why. I'll on the rare occasion try something new if I'm confronted with it, but I'll rarely experiment on my own. It's always the same meals - homemade or frozen pizza, chicken and fries, chicken and potatoes, hot dogs, et cetera. Over and over. If it were just a matter of 'oh, I'm not a fan of salads' I feel like this might be easier, but it's not just that I 'dislike' them - I get this instinctive nausea the moment anything I'm not used to hits my mouth, and I've been like that since I was a toddler.
I'm also definitely a big eater, and an emotional eater.
I can feel my body breaking down. I'm always tired. I went swimsuit shopping today and oh, boy, was that not fun. But I'm just so scared that I don't have the willpower, resources or knowledge to combat this.
Has anyone here ever managed to lose weight, even having bad food pickiness? Meal recommendations? Weight loss shakes/bars, or has anyone been able to get surgery? Part of this is just venting, but if I could see something from someone who's been in my situation, that would be wonderful. Frozen meal ideas, either from the store or make-ahead and store would be great, too. Thanks so much to anyone who can offer advice or even just a friendly ear.
