[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Calmly accept it and choose cheaper places if paying for the extra entrée and appetizer are outside your budget. It’s not up to you to regulate how much he eats or what he orders. It is up to you to decide where you go for dinner and if you eat out at all.

Dad has food issues big time, but I think OP does as well. Adults don’t tell other adults how much to eat. [/quote]

Do you really not think it’s bizarre and rude to upfront order two entrees?  This is how it goes:

Dh: hi I’ll take the burger, medium well thanks

Me: hi I’ll take the chicken wrap, fries on the side, thank you.

Kids: we will both have the chicken tenders, with fries. Thanks.

FIL: Everything looks so delicious. To begin I’ll have the calamari. Then I’ll have the chefs salad. Then as an entree I’ll take the burger with a side of sweet potato fries, yes the extra cost is fine. I’ll also have the chicken pasta as well with the soup of the day. And please don’t forget to come back for dessert!

At this juncture, sometimes my husband will say like “you sure you need two entrees dad?”  He will say I’m just so hungry for everything we did earlier and having such a great day!!  And no he won’t change his order.

I’m thinking the only way we could get him to stop is to say, we have tons back home- any way we can get you to get one entree and have a snack at home? He might still say no. [/quote]
