We have a new family member (adult) who has finally said she used to be bulimic. I don't know for how long or how long ago that was. She appears to be a normal weight and says she doesn't throw up anymore. I am never sure how to cook for her or how to please her. She says she hates big slabs of meat--chicken, etc. and hates the way it stays in her stomach. But she sometimes loves to go out and eat a steak. But other times she hates beef. And she'll order chicken if we go out.
She isn't into organic or all healthy foods. I honestly can't figure it out. And she is not a vegan. Usually she hates sweets, but sometimes she likes them. When she was pregnant she was terrified of gaining a stomach. She didn't like that she showed or needed maternity pants. By the way, the baby was born healthy.
What can I do to not put pressure on her to eat, but to provide something she might like? It honestly seems to change from day to day. The only thing I know she likes is salad.
