Hello! I am 20 years old, and I have been a picky eater for about as long as I can remember. I remember getting into trouble with my mom for not eating all of my dinner when I was younger. I only ate a specific list of things, and that list hasn't changed much to this day. It's frustrating because I explain to people that I want to eat other things, but I just can't. I get picked on by my family a lot about it, and every relationship I've been in, they always tell me, "oh ok sure, you'll get over it." And of course, never do. I refuse to eat salads, fruits, and all that, but I will drink veggie juice, or eat apple sauce. I can't do the textures of fruits/ veggies, I just can't chew them, it makes me sick, and it makes me gag. It's pretty embarrassing, and going to new food restaurants is always stressful, because what if they don't have chicken tenders? Or simple things like that? I've skipped dinner while eating out because I was too embarrassed to order off the children's menu, or even they didn't have anything I would eat. My weight fluctuates, and currently I am expecting my first child, and I really don't want them to have these issues too. They're really frustrating and I just don't know what to do, I've always been told I'll grow out of it, but that hasn't happened.
