It’s also not rocket science to figure out, how much you need to eat and plan your groceries accordingly. I seldom throw away food or let it go to waste and I really dislike, if others do.
Same. I also don’t get the people saying it’s because they’re conditioned to clean their plate. Why are you putting so much on your plate in the first place? I get if you’re 7 and your mom’s doing it but an adult should be able to manage their portion sizes.
Yea that’s why I said that I could understand if you’re a kid. As an adult you have access to all the information you could possibly need to figure this shit out for yourself. It’s not complicated. I say that having grown up in a “clean your plate” household with my parents who gave very little thought to the nutritional composition of our meals. As soon as I got out of there I worked out a better meal plan and started collecting recipes. It wasn’t hard at all. You don’t even have to be perfect just keeping an eye on the amount of calories you’re consuming is 90% of it. You can do this even if you’re eating fast food all the time.

Because a LOT of people, parents included- have disordered eating habits and pass those on to their children.

My point was, I don’t think a lot of folk realize just how many people have disordered eating, not just eating disorders that can be diagnosed.
