[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Impulse eater spouse and oldest kid. We have to keep snacks hidden. Spouse will INHALE a months worth of sports or lunch box snacks in a couple days and his mini me sneaks them to her room and gorges on candy, baking items, snacks.

MIL told me long ago she never had snacks except fruit in the house. It wasn’t because they’re all healthy, it’s because they have no self control and cannot stop. Same with soda, desserts, cake, etc. The kid gots sick at buffet picnic school things gorging only on the dessert table. And we do eat dessert 1-2x a week...[/quote]

My ex husband was the same way. Last time I saw his pantry it had nothing but oatmeal and grapenuts, but he looked healthier!! :) when he has our daughter she comes with snacks or they’ll shop together. Me? I rarely finish an entire bag of anything. Cookies, chips, candy. I was an intermittent faster before it was a “thing”, I fed myself on demand because I got tired of wasting food when I didn’t have the appetite others did at lunch. Now I’m my 40s it is helping be not become overweight. I did this with my child too — made sweets ALWAYS available and letting her eat to her hearts content. She did that one time, then the excitement was gone.

Oversupply always reduces demand! ;) but I understand engrained habits are not easy to break. Now she craves healthy things and sometimes junk food too but she does everything in moderation. [/quote]
