[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Bottom line - you have some control over what foods are available to her but she will need to develop good eating habits on her own, or else she will just binge on junk food whenever she gets the chance. [/quote] OP here. I've had a talk with DH trying to get him on board. I think our struggle right now is finding that balance where there is some element of choice/learning self-control but not so much that she can rely on processed snacks instead of eating. I've also said no more buying the econo Costco size Goldfish. Even if it is more expensive, it is better to have packaged portion size at this stage if we want to have a limited amount available as a treat.[/quote]
