Hi, I am 45 years old and feel like I have tried everything to help my brain be willing to either try new foods or retry old foods. I don't eat any vegetables other than corn or potatoes (which really aren't vegetables at all) and the only fruits that I can stand is bananas and watermelon but the textures have to be just right and I prefer each of them in specific scenarios such as watermelon in the summer.

I am texture sensitive...if it's to mushy or if something that is supposed to be soft has a crunch (like a secret onion in spaghetti) My 16 year old daughter and my 12 year old nephew are very much like me. I started taking supplements that at least make me feel better physically and more confident in my nutrition but I want more than anything to eat a healthy diet. As I get older I have noticed weight gain and I feel defeated when no amount of exercise is enough because a carb and protein only diet makes success a challenge.

I had no idea groups like this existed. I am hoping to find some hope and some answers for myself and my family.
