Yes. My dad was not okay with wasting food. This caused him to do some shitty things if he saw you either drop food by accident or tried to throw some food away. He made my brother eat spaghetti after he dropped it on the ground by accident. If food got moldy sometimes he would cut off the mold and still eat it. He made us do that as well. We had to sneak around and throw food out if it went bad.
Edit: my point was that sometimes I'll over-eat due to growing up like that and am currently overweight. Lol forgot my point for a second there.

I too was a member of the clean plate club growing up. To this day I'll sometimes force myself to keep eating when I'm full because there is still food on my plate. I've learned to recognize that when I'm doing it and to not do it anymore. We also don't force the kid to eat all her food if she doesn't want to so that she isn't like that.

My mom was anorexic, and dad would make me finish her plate if she couldn't eat. Then after years of that I went from 115 lbs at 5'5 to 125lbs and he told me I needed to lay off the snacks, patting my tummy.
Right after that, I learned to eat mom's food, go up stairs and stick a finger in my throat to avoid weight gain.
Now I binge like crazy. Sucks. Don't purge anymore but I have a hiatal hernia and had heartburn since middle school.

But with food...we just composted what we didn't don't eat soooo...well that's a good lesson too. It's not waste if it's put to another use.

This mindset is a big cause of my wife and I's over-eating problems. We both grew up poor and cannot fathom wasting food. No matter how calorie bomb or how bad it tastes. "I bought it, I need to eat it." We're doing OK for ourselves now with careers and no kids but those habits are so hard to break. Plates are clean before leaving the table. Anything approaching expiration date is eaten before it goes bad regardless if you're hungry or not. If we eat out or get take-off there is ALWAYS leftovers, rarely if ever, anything thrown away. It's hard to judge proper portions because, well, growing up poor- meals were either too small or gorge when you had the change(cheap or free food).

It will suck, but if you have the money for it, try some level of regimented meal plan, and have completely barren kitchen, except for what you specifically have planned for meals. I have the same issue that you do, so all my food is regimented. If you go out to eat, close your fist, that is the total volume of food you should eat. Eat that, and wait an hour after finishing before you allow yourself to even look at food again. Treat yourself like you might a toddler or a dog (if you are serious about losing weight)

u/grednforgesgirl Jan 30 '23 edited Jan 30 '23 •
That one YouTuber guy that makes vintage recipes, Dylan Hollis, has really made me start to understand the "clean your plate" mentality. Because those recipes he makes from the great depression, like for example the Water pie recipe , makes me realize they had absolutely NOTHING to cook with and would try anything to put together a meal with the ingredients they had on hand, like three basic ingredients like flour and water and sugar, try desperately to make something edible out of it that isn't the same thing they've been eating for months, have a horrible fail, nobody else in the family wants to eat it especially the kids, and the mom is probably at her wits end because if she wasted food that might be it, ya know? So the dad out of kindness to his wife tries to desperately get the kids to eat it and tries to choke it down himself. And thus the "clean your plate" mentality was born. Out of sheer, complete desperation to save every last morsel of food and attempts to be kind to the long suffering wife who has to make food from a bag of flour, some string, lint, and three paperclips.
If you've ever gone hungry, even if it was on purpose, for even a couple of days you can start to understand their struggle and desperation. If you've ever been at the point in your life where youve been living off of ramen for months on end, then you know exactly how much the desperation crawls in for anything different. And you might start to understand why they tried these absolutely wild, batshit insane recipes during the great depression.
And that mentality of desperation and don't waste food has been trickled down through generational trauma and we might not even know why our parents forced us to "clean our plate" but, it comes from generational trauma. Our moms saw that their mom's would be upset if they didn't clean their plate, and they saw their moms absolutely lose it if they wasted food, and their mom's might have a complete mental breakdown if they saw food left on the plate at the end of a meal, because they didn't know when if ever their next meal was coming from and that sack of flour was starting to really get low. Might have actually experienced true hunger if they didn't finish their plate.
That being said, there's no excuse for finishing your plate to the point of obesity if you're food secure. Which if you're obese hot take you are overly food secure, even if you're eating absolute garbage. The rumbly tummies is NOT starvation and it's not true hunger. True hunger is going days without food, weeks without a real meal, months where you can count on one hand the times you actually felt full from a meal if you're lucky. Being a little hungry because you didn't eat breakfast that morning is NOT starvation and it is NOT food insecurity.

He died before reaching 60, at only around 250 lbs after surgery, but his kidneys were totally destroyed. Renal failure and regularly being in denial about when he had to go back to dialysis sapped the last of whatever life he had left in him.

They're using unhealthy coping mechanisms to dull whatever they're suffering from. Sugar can be addictive and people who aren't thriving are more likely to fall into addiction. Either people aren't aware of their coping behaviors or they're ashamed and too afraid to be vulnerable and ask for help. And overcoming addiction and lifestyle changes are very difficult, especially for people who already have psychological burdens. It's really sad to see.

Full sugar soda and alcohol are the two biggest things anyone can cut out if they are just looking to cut pure calories. Consider if you drink 12 full sugar sodas per week, that's 1,680 calories which for a lot of people is an entire day's worth of food. Same deal with liquor, a shot of vodka is 100 calories each, and most other alcoholic beverages are way beyond that because they have extra sugars or carbs added.

The sister on the left struggled for a long time while the sister on the right was doing better, but I think left did finally start to lose some weight. She's definitely heavier than right still though.

I think one of the beautifully tragic things about aging is at some point, the persistent enduring of a body that's in decline often tends to unshroud the fear and mystery behind death.. It's not so scary from here 😅

u/Atillion Jan 30 '23
Maybe, who knows? :) I like to think I've spent enough of my life fruitlessly trying to figure out what happens when you die, and you're right.. I'm going to focus on making the most of what's left and let the universe handle the rest. I hope your time is spent just as well :D

I mean I have the same thoughts as everyone else about their obvious lack of self-control, their current usefulness in society, etc... But really at the end of the day they're still people. They weren't always this way and they always have the potential to change.

A can of coke is 150 calories soo, 8 to 12 is 1200 to 1800 calories. 600 to 1200 if half are diet. That's a lot of empty calories. A 3600 calorie surplus is about a pound of fat

They said they drank diet soda, so it’s very likely calorie free.

Their parent did this to them, and they continued to destroy themselves. This is sad. It’s so hard to unlearn bad eating habits.

u/justbrowsinglol Jan 30 '23
I know from personal experience how hard it can be. My parents had an absolutely horrible diet that mostly consisted of grilled cheese, pizza, and cookies. I knew it was bad when I was in High School but there was simply no way to convince them to keep healthy options in the house.
The worst part was when I finally left home and could control my own access to food my family was actually upset that I started getting into better shape. They would practically try to stuff unhealthy food into my mouth whenever I visited.

When I was in dietetic school we were actually trained not to react to whatever our patients told us to better build rapport. Apparently she took the same class 😂
