A 21-year-old woman has only eaten junk food for the past 16 years - and she weighs just 9st 12lb
despite her diet of cheeseburgers, pizza, crisps and chips.
Faye Campbell, from Stowmarket, Suffolk, will always choose McDonald's over any homemade meal and has never eaten a green vegetable or a piece of fruit.
Miss Campbell, who works as a carer, has been an extremely picky eater since she was a baby and up to the age of 15 she ate nothing but chips.

She said: 'The thought of eating vegetables or any sort of fruit just makes me feel physically sick.
‘Even putting them near my mouth terrifies me.’
Miss Campbell's diet now consists of toast for breakfast, a large pizza from Dominos for lunch and cheeseburgers for dinner.


She eats potatoes - if they’re served as chips or waffles - and she can handle fruit - if it comes in fizzy drink form - but just the smell of any other vegetable is enough to turn her stomach.
She said: 'If mum is cooking a roast dinner with vegetables I have go in to a different room because I can’t stand the smell. Sometimes I have to open all the windows to get rid of it.
‘It’s got to the point where I’d be happy to sit in the lounge with a pizza, while they sit in the kitchen with their roast - it has become a normal routine for us now.
Scared of fruit and veg! The woman who only eats junk food

Miss Campbell (pictured with her sister, Lauren) developed a phobia of food because of a painful digestive disorder she suffered from as a child. Until she was 15 she only ate chips

‘My family wish I could sit with them and have a meal together, but I just can’t.’
Miss Campbell has been a fussy eater since she was a child and when she was 12 the cause of her problems was discovered - she was diagnosed with a digestive disorder called gastroesophageal reflux.
The condition, which causes chronic indigestion and heartburn, meant she was left in agony after eating.
She discovered that the only thing she could eat that would not leave her in agony was chips.

Although doctors were able to cure her of her medical problem, she was left with a phobia of food.
It is only after seeing a child psychologist that she has started eating foods like pizza, burgers and cheese.
She said: 'My parents would put something in front of me and the plate would go half way across the room. That would be how bad it was. They’d try and try and try, but it just wouldn’t take it.
'It was really frustrating for them not knowing what was wrong with me but I couldn’t help it - the very thought of biting a piece of fruit or vegetable made me feel ill.
'If anyone put them near me I would just run away.'

Her mother, Carolyn, 42, said: ‘We tried to hide vegetables in her dinner, but she always found out and refused to eat them.
'When walking around the supermarket I would say to Faye that she could pick anything she wanted, but she just wasn’t interested in anything else.'
Miss Campbell explained that it took years of counselling to allow her to eat anything other than chips but that she is still fussy.
She said: ‘I still can’t bring myself to eat a roast dinner or a home-made lasagne.
‘It took me a good couple of years to get used to the other foods and I’m still fussy with that.

'There’s just something in my brain that says "ugh" whenever I’m faced with new food and I go in to panic mode.
'As soon as the phobia kicks in I just can’t bring myself to eat - I can’t even think about taking a bite.'
Miss Campbell even admits her eating habits are so strange they have had an affect on her love life.
Men have tried to woo her with fancy meals out - but their romantic dates always end up in fast-food chains.
She said: 'Once a guy booked a lovely Italian place but we ended up in McDonald's because I couldn’t face eating anything on the menu.

'I would love to go into a restaurant and eat normally, but in my mind I have this phobia and I have to really get myself together first to be able to do that.'
Incredibly, 5ft 8 Miss Campbell has suffered no health problems after more than a decade of gorging on junk food.
And she’s managed to keep an enviable size ten figure.
Her sister, Lauren, 23, said: 'Faye hates going to the gym, so I get a little jealous when she eats all this junk food every day and doesn’t exercise, but still stays super skinny.'
Miss Campbell added: 'I would like to eat like a normal person, but until I can overcome my phobia of food, then that day won’t happen for a long time.'
