一生只能吃奶酪三明治的女人

A diet some could only dream of has turned into a cheesy nightmare for one British woman.

對于一位英國女性來說，一些節(jié)食的人夢寐以求的美食，已經(jīng)變成了一場俗氣的噩夢。

Her whole life, April Griffiths, 29, has eaten only cheese sandwiches — and on the rare occasion, potato chips — for breakfast, lunch and dinner, due to a severe anxiety condition that propels her into a panic attack every time she attempts to munch something new.

29歲的阿普里爾·格里菲斯(April Griffiths)一生的早餐、午餐和晚餐中，只吃過奶酪三明治，偶爾吃薯條，因為她患有嚴重的焦慮癥，每次嘗試咀嚼新東西時都會引發(fā)恐慌。

“The fear of choking and experiencing a different texture of food scares me,” the bubbly mother of two children tells Caters News Agency. “And even though I have tried to eat pea-size portions of rice, pasta or vegetables, I have never been able to swallow it without throwing up.”

“害怕窒息和體驗不同質(zhì)地的食物，讓我感到害怕，”這位有兩個孩子的母親告訴caters新聞社。“盡管我試過吃豌豆大小的米飯、意大利面或蔬菜，但沒有一次不吐的。”

So it’s purely grated cheese on bread, she says — preferably Mature Cheddar or Red Leicester. Griffiths can sometimes stomach basic sliced cheese or sour cream and onion Pringles on special occasions.

因此，她說，只有純磨碎的奶酪面包，最好是成熟的切達干酪或萊斯特紅奶酪。格里菲思有時會在特殊場合吃一些基本的切片奶酪、酸奶油和洋蔥品客薯片。

“I would love to eat a roast dinner, but I couldn’t face it — the vegetables, potatoes and meat all touching makes me feel sick,” she says.

她說：“我很想吃一頓烤肉晚餐，但我無法面對——蔬菜、土豆和肉類都讓我感到惡心。”

The phobia began when she was a baby, she says. Her parents tried to transition her from milk to solid food but she would become extremely anxious or vomit immediately. They took her to the doctor, who said at the time there wasn’t anything medically wrong with her.

她說，這種恐懼癥開始于她還是個小孩子的時候。她的父母試圖把她從牛奶變成固體食物，但她很快就會變得極度焦慮或嘔吐。他們帶她去看醫(yī)生，醫(yī)生當時說她沒有任何醫(yī)學上的問題。

For the record, she says doctors tell her she’s otherwise healthy.

據(jù)記錄，醫(yī)生告訴她她在其他方面很健康。
