Can I ask how everyone feels about food now? Eating alone seems to have taken all the pleasure out of meals for me. Sometimes I make the effort to cook a 'proper' dinner, but I never want it or enjoy it. I seem to live on junk - cereal, crumpets, yogurt, chocolate, anything quick and easy. People tell me to eat properly, but I don't seem to care any more. What do others do?
