[quote=Anonymous]This will sound horrible, but I let me kids eat the excessive amount that their Gma offered until the point where they got sick and puked.

Nothing else worked.  Not telling them no after she'd given them something, not lectures about healthy habits, not saying we'd eat it later after a meal, not lecturing her about too much junk.

After a few times of eating so much junk that they puked or got stomach aches, they started declining her offered food/saving it for later.

An example of a visit to Grandma's house would be... arrive early that morning to a prepared breakfast of french toast, chocolate chip pancakes, muffins, eggs & bacon.  She'd always have some kind of baked good made that they could have "as a snack" before lunch.  Then we'd have lunch and dessert.  Then she'd give more baked goods later in the afternoon and dessert after dinner, of course.  My MIL's food is awesome because she's a retired pastry chef, but no one needs that amount of baked goods she provides for one family visit of just 4 people.    [/quote]
