How tall are you, Nanka? I went from 135 lbs. to 110 in a year and a half all of a sudden and I'm 5'2. Any lower than 110 lbs. and I would have been worried. My mother always bought this really cheap frozen chicken from Wal-Mart and I HATED it, and she always cooked it, even though I said I didn't like it. Anytime she made anything good, my step dad would hog close to everything there was. Whatever was on my plate was what I got for dinner every night. I was left half-hungry sometimes and it was really sickening to watch him down half a pan of lasagna while my stomach was growling an hour later.

For a picky eater, I would start off with snacking. What snacks do you like? If you pick out snacks that you like that are on sale, it would be an affordable start and your mom might get an idea of what you like to snack on. If she doesn't know, make her a list, stuff it into her pocket, and tell her "Don't forget to take a peek at that. I don't need everything on it, but the ones that are on sale would be nice. If there isn't anything on the list that isn't for sale, the ones with stars are the ones I'd like most. Thank you!"
