This may seem like a really daft question but is there anyone else that worries about what effect your diet will have on your children?
My little girl has just turned 4 and started school, so she at the age where she starts to actaully process and understand the more complicated things, like why Mummy wont eat her sweets when she trying to share!
I worry that my constant dieting will have a profound effect on her in later life. I know the main thing i can remember of my mum is her constant battle with weight!
I worry that me talking about my weight will make her more body aware before she needs to be, and will start worring needlessly about her body because of me.
Does anyone consiously make the effort to hide the fact their on a diet from their children to try and shield them from the body concious thoughts it may prevoke?
Im probably being either very paranoid, or having bubble wrap syndrome (just want to wrap her up till she turns 30!) but I'm been really worried about it today.
