I have to answer a questionaire thing kind of like this for my health class and I wanted to see how other teens would fill it out.
Teens what kind of eater are you?
1) Do you eat healthy?

~ I would like to claim that I do because I%26#039;m a vegan with a love for fruit, nuts and other %26quot;whole foods,%26quot; and I avoid highly processed and empty-substance things like white bread, but in truth, I lead such a fast-paced life I don%26#039;t carve out the time to properly nourish it. I will be so consumed with a painting or dance I%26#039;m working on, or focused on things I need to check off my to-list that I%26#039;ll forget that eating lunch should have been on it. I was very determined to gain weight last year and met with a nutritionist for guidance, but got dismayed when I lost it anyway. I have an absurdly fast metabolism. If I was grading my eating habits honestly, I would give myself a B minus. It%26#039;s not atrocious, but there%26#039;s a definite need for improvement.



2) Do you like to try new things?

~ To an extent. I travel frequently and have a palette open to experimentation, but I%26#039;m cautious about foods that might contain meat. When I%26#039;m abroad I will eat dairy because it%26#039;s practically impossible to go totally vegan in many places, but the thought of eating meat is repulsive to me.



3) What do you eat the most of each week?

~ Avocados, soy milk, bananas, raspberries, blueberries, pineapple, apples, clementines, soy cheese, soy kefir, soy yogurt, walnuts, almonds, kale, green beans, eggplant, agave nectar, whole grain pasta and bread, hummus, pita chips, Weetabix, this insanely awesome vegan brownie mix, coconut milk (I use it to make soup), sweet potatoes, zucchini, acai, lentils and beans.



4) Have you ever had a ED?

~ No. As I explained above, I need to put in more of an effort to gain weight and eat better, but I have never had an ED.



5) Are you a vegetarian or do you eat meat

~ I became a vegetarian at the age of 10 and a vegan just before turning 16.



6) What weird things do you like to eat? Like weird combinations I mean.

~ I love almond butter and banana sandwiches drizzled with agave nectar, avocado, banana and soy cheese crepes, and grilled pineapple topped with powder sugar and nutella. I frequently combine things others find bizarre, but I think are fantastic.



7) What did you eat today?

~ My dad made me scrumptious peanut butter and vegan chocolate pancakes for breakfast and I had them with coffee and a pear. For lunch I had Thai lemongrass soup, a salad, and brown rice topped with zucchini at a tiny hole-in-the-wall gem my friend took me to, and for dinner I had one of my funky combination salads (chopped apples and red onions mixed with avocado, walnuts, dried cranberries, soy cheese, olive oil and balsamic vinaigrette), pita bread with hummus, and a baked potato. I had banana chips and red tea for an evening snack. I actually did a decent job today eating.



8) Are you trying to change your weight?

~ Yes, I would like to gain 20 pounds.



9) What%26#039;s your favorite food?

~ Fresh squeezed pomegranate and orange juice, and grilled pineapple dusted with powder sugar.



10) Do you drink coffee?

~ Yes. I%26#039;m a coffee fiend.



11) Do you have to eat special things because your religion?

~ No.



12) Do you have any allergies?

~ Thankfully I do not. My best friend is allergic to gluten and almonds, and I know how challenging it can for her.



13 ) Age / Gender / Weight / Height?

~ 17 / Female / 110 / 5.9



14) Does the media make you want to change your weight?

~ The media is a scape goat for eating disorders, low self esteem, and body dysmorphic issues, but yet when Jessica Simpson gained weight the general public was far crueler to her. The media portrays stick-thin girls, and the general public attacks them too. Yes, the media has made me want to gain weight because I%26#039;m tired of people thinking that all skinny girls are the victims of it.



~ Peace

14) Does the media make you want to change your weight?

-No, its for my benefit and me only
1) Do you eat healthy? - For the most part. My usual daily diet is:



Breakfast:

- 1 boiled egg

- 2 pieces of Weight Watchers bread with 1/2 tsp of soy butter

- 1 cup of fat free milk

- 1 serving of fruit

- 1/2 a Genisoy bar (I should replace that with something else)



Lunch:

- 1 banana

- 1 Babybel Light cheese



Dinner:

- 1 piece of tuna

- 2 cups raw baby spinach

- 1 serving of fruit mixed with the baby spinach

- 1 cup fat free milk

- 2 teaspoons flaxseed oil



I also drink a lot of water and green tea (no caffeine, and I drink it plain) every day.



I don%26#039;t eat or drink anything more or less than what I listed.



2) Do you like to try new things? - Yes.



3) What do you eat the most of each week? - Fruits and vegetables.



4) Have you ever had a ED? - No.



5) Are you a vegetarian or do you eat meat - I eat fish and poultry, but no other meats.



6) What weird things do you like to eat? Like weird combinations I mean. - Not sure.



7) What did you eat today? - I let myself go, today. LOL I had a baby spinach and strawberry and blueberry salad, some chocolate stuff, toast, a boiled egg, etc. I ate more than that but I don%26#039;t feel like writing it all down.

14) Does the media make you want to change your weight? - No. I just want to be happy with the way I look for myself. The media is too fake and idealistic. I don%26#039;t expect to look like someone who hires personal chefs and trainers, and has professional make-up artists. Not to mention that pretty much all photos in magazines, ads, etc. are photoshopped.



I actually am also very self-conscious and have low self-esteem because I have social anxiety disorder, but I still wouldn%26#039;t say the media affects me.
I%26#039;m only 13, and I weigh the most out of anyone on here so far. Ha, that really does a lot for my self-esteem.

8) Are you trying to change your weight?

Yes.

16/Female/8st./5ft4





14) Does the media make you want to change your weight?



Not always.
1) Do you eat healthy? I would like to think I eat pretty healthily but if I examined my diet thoroughly I%26#039;m pretty sure that%26#039;s not entirely true. Also, I go through little phases. There will be weeks when I only eat raw vegan food and then the next week I completely binge on dairy-rich, over processed junk food.

2) Do you like to try new things? Yes I love to! Especially food from other countries. Like Skylark said though, I am always weary of my food having meat in it, particularly when I travel overseas.

3) What do you eat the most of each week? Bananas, Apples, Lettuce, Tomatoes, Cheese, Granola Bars, Bread, Chocolate, Nuts, Yogurt.

4) Have you ever had a ED? Never a full fledged eating disorder. I have struggled with border line anorexia for a while though as I%26#039;ve always been very self conscience of my body.

5) Are you a vegetarian or do you eat meat: I%26#039;m a vegetarian.

6) What weird things do you like to eat? Apparently peanut butter and banana sandwiches are strange? I love them though! I can eat hummus and pesto on basically anything, too; like sandwiches, pizza and veggies.

7) What did you eat today? An apple pastry, cheese and pesto sandwich on whole grain role and a banana.

8) Are you trying to change your weight? Not really. I%26#039;ve finally just gotten comfortable with it.

9) What%26#039;s your favorite food? Technically it%26#039;s a spread, but I love hummus to death! I also adore vegetable noodle soups in the winter, raspberry Alpine granola bars, mint chocolate chip ice cream and potato pancakes.

10) Do you drink coffee? Yes but only a couple of times a week, even though I love it.

11) Do you have to eat special things because your religion? No.

12) Do you have any allergies? Thankfully not really. However I%26#039;ve just developed some problems with my stomach acid. It%26#039;s not consistent but usually when I eat a good amount of acidic food or drink (such as tomato soup, tomato sauce, or large portions of orange juice) I%26#039;m up vomiting all night.

13 ) Age / Gender / Weight / Height? 15, female, 106 lb, 5%26#039;5%26#039;%26#039;.

14) Does the media make you want to change your weight? I think the media is a lame scape goat for eating disorders and other self image problems. Even though I have been there before, I know that I only have myself to blame. Although seeing stick thin models in every issue of Vogue doesn%26#039;t help either....did I just contradict myself?

14) Does the media make you want to change your weight?

A little, but no one likes a fat girl.
1) Do you eat healthy?

hmm i would give myself a 6/10. During my junior year of high school i almost never ate during school hours because i was at a new school and was absolutely miserable but now I do try to make an effort to eat healthily. Usually I%26#039;m too preoccupied too even think about food and when i do eat, i eat like a bird. I have come to the conclusion that my stomach is the size of my thumb. Perhaps the result of my severe pickiness and distaste for food throughout my childhood. People seriously thought I had an ED when I was like 6



2) Do you like to try new things?

Yes! I am passionate about travel and enjoy the foods that other cultures have to offer. You can%26#039;t experience the complete difference in worlds unless you have tried their cuisine. I am a vegetarian and have dabbled in veganism so still, I have to be cautious about what%26#039;s actually in my food and that is a challenge.



3) What do you eat the most of each week?

Nutella, cashews, pistachios, almonds, whatever they%26#039;re selling at this delicious bakery by my house, pasta, strawberry jam, white honey, bananas, strawberries, blueberries, carrots, blood oranges, larabars, pomegranate juice, green tea, dark chocolate, brie, hummus, pesto



4) Have you ever had a ED?

I may have been borderline at some point (at a young age I heard one of my relatives mentioning it but I didn%26#039;t know what an ED was at the time) but apparently not so severe that I had to be taken to a doctor



5) Are you a vegetarian or do you eat meat

I am a vegetarian. I don%26#039;t miss meat because compared to normal eaters I ate little to nothing of meat



6) What weird things do you like to eat? Like weird combinations I mean.

I like soy chorizo on pita chips with sun-dried tomato pesto and I too, love banana and peanut butter sandwiches mmm. I also like unusual salads and pastas



7) What did you eat today?

a to-die-for chocolate chip cookie from this charming bakery by my house, greek yogurt with strawberry jam, 2 oranges, an apple, thai red curry with fried rice, and pomegranate seeds



8) Are you trying to change your weight?

Yes, I%26#039;ve been trying to gain 10-15 pounds and stay that way. Sometimes my goal is nearly accomplished but it never remains. Also, after gaining more than 12lbs, I still looked the same



9) What%26#039;s your favorite food?

that%26#039;s a hard one. Maybe an amazing inari they make at this hidden gem korean restaurant. Or just nutella if that counts



10) Do you drink coffee?

I love coffee. I try not to drink it too much but I%26#039;m probably already addicted anyway



11) Do you have to eat special things because your religion?

I don%26#039;t have to eat special things but when I was 12 (I became a vegetarian when I was 14) I decided to eliminate red meat from my diet when my grandmother told me a story about her grandfather who was a travel enthusiast. He had embarked on a spiritual journey in the jungles of India when he was bitten by a cobra (apologies if I make it sound unreal or comical. This is, in fact, a completely true story) and a hindu who was passing, healed him with an herbal remedy. My gg-grandfather %26quot;repayed%26quot; him by promising no consumption of beef in his household because the cow is symbolic of life in the religion. His family and his grandchildren continued the tradition but it for some reason came to a halt afterwards so I chose to continue it.



12) Do you have any allergies?

I don%26#039;t think so but I always sneeze when I eat chocolate. It%26#039;s inevitable



13 ) Age / Gender / Weight / Height?

18, female, 110+, 5.10



14) Does the media make you want to change your weight?

Of course it does. There is no understanding of the concept %26quot;healthy%26quot; to tabloids and gossip sites. Have you ever read or heard: %26quot;she%26#039;s looking quite healthy these days%26quot;? No, probably not. There is an intangible bar set for perfection; it cannot be reached and no one is good enough or for that matter, no one is criticized enough. I thinks it%26#039;s absolutely absurb and wonder if it is ever possible to simply not have a standard for beauty. You%26#039;re either the target of scrutiny or the one scrutinizing. Nevertheless, it does affect me
