Mum-of-three only eats chicken nuggets and crisps due to eating disorder – even though it might make her BLIND

A MUM who survives on a diet of only chicken nuggets and crisps becaue of her restrictive eating disorder says she fears she might go BLIND unless she recovers.

Michaela Harris, 26, from Middlesbrough, can't stomach anything other than the two junk foods - and she fears her kids might copy her picky eating habits.

The mum-of-three has avoidant restrictive food intake disorder (ARFID), which she developed following a difficult breakup in 2016.

Michaela confessed: "I went through a tough breakup and I stopped eating anything at all, I'd just have a can of Monster for breakfast. There were a few other things I ate but only really small amounts.

"Before, there wasn't anything I didn't like and I'd eat pretty much anything.

"I'd eat three slices of bacon, two eggs, four sausages, two pieces of fried toast, three hash browns and beans in one sitting. I could really put some food away."

"He's a superhero in my eyes and I imagine I frustrate him half to death sometimes but he won't show me that and he stays patient.

"He's done more to help me than any doctor, specialist or hospital that I've ever been under and without him I simply wouldn't be here.

"To be blunt, if going out involves food, I don't go out.

"I am trying to break that when I go out with John but no luck so far."
