[quote=Anonymous]My in-laws aren't really junk food people, but whenever we stay there they do stuff like order pizza (no salad) or make lasagna (no salad, no bread, no sides). It's tasty enough, but there are 0 veggies or fruits, and it's often just not much food. I've taken to being proactive and when they say "Do you want to have lasagna or order pizza" I'll say "We need some veggies today - let us order pizza and salad from Pizza Barn and we can do lasagna tomorrow?" And if I can get to the store to get salad stuff I'll offer to make it. "MIL is it cool if I make a salad? We've been loving this one salad lately and I think you might like it toO. I'm going to the store at 11, do you need anything while I'm there?" Other alternative is to pay for takeout and order ta a place they like, where you can also get something you like. Otherwise, plan to load up on nutrients at lunch or stock shelf-stable snacks. [/quote]
