It sounds weird, but I'm almost terrified at the idea of trying "new" foods. I've been growing up in a household with two parents who didn't know where their next meal was coming from when they were my age, so the nutritional value of food has never been a big thing in my house, so as long as I'm fed. Fast forward 16 years and I'm 5' 3" weighing roughly 140 lbs, 30-35ish of which is fat. It might not sound like a lot, but it's enough to where it's damaged my mental health at times (but I'm getting better :) ). I know most of the things I need to do to safely and healthily lose the weight I don't need, but the problem for me is starting. For whatever reason I am completely and utterly repulsed by fruits and can hardly stand even two kinds of vegetables, and I rarely eat them. I'm not quite sure why I haven't had issues with scurvy or other physical health problems. Does anyone have any tips or strategies for starting? Easing into it is easier said than done and quite frankly I'm afraid I don't have much mental strength to force myself to eat them. Advice much appreciated :)
