In light of our discussion on scheduled feeds, I wonder how many of us on Lactnet (a) have issues with food -- either we eat too much, or eat too little, or are consistently concerned about weight. And (b) how many of us that have issues with food a la (a) above, were fed on a schedule, and had food used as either reward or punishment...."If you are good, I'll get you an ice cream cone." OR, "You've been bad. You'll go to bed without any supper." I bet there are a lot of us that fall into either or both categories -- particularly those of us that were born in the 40's & 50's. And I would hypothesize that those of us that fit into either A or B have issues w/ weight. Anorexia &/or bulemia fit here too.... Let's not do that to our children.
