Mama made her eat it...

The Los Angeles Times posted an article, back in 2000, spilling the beans on how mama influences her daughters eating habits as an adult, in turn also effecting her daughters outlook on body image.  Giving daughters one more thing to blame on mom.  From eating disorders to health conditions, mom gets faulted for it all.

  In an article on momlogic.com the American Dietetic Association states that "when a mother is dissatisfied with her body, daughters will learn to base their self-worth on their appearance. 

 

In fact, a study published by the Association showed that girls as young as five are likely to try dieting simply because Mom has."  Poor mom, she did the best she could but, somehow you were listening the whole time when she was complaining about her waistline, and you just couldn't miss the sideline showing of how a mother pretends to eat the contents of her dinner.  

Today you look in the mirror and you can hardly see yourself through mommy's frumpy old silhouette.  You loath yourself.  You cry yourself to sleep some nights wishing you had another woman's body as your own.  Failed diet attempts lead you back to the infliction your mommy caused once again.

YOU have to start taking responsibility for YOU!  Okay so mom played a role in what you think you look  like, and what you think you should eat.  But now you're you, not just mommy's little girl!  You brush your own teeth, drive your own car, and you darn sure make your own decisions.  You have the power to break your own cycle.  If an old dog can learn new tricks, so can you little girl!  Now get to it, and give mom a break ladies!
