[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]This OP again, for those saying to only to serve healthy meals and not keep processed foods or sweets in the house how will that not lead to binging when she does have the opportunity to eat them, such as at friends’ houses, birthday parties, etc?

Again, our focus has been on balance - have the goldfish but also some berries if you are still hungry, or a string cheese or whatever.

And yes half a can of beans isn’t crazy, but the quesadilla was very large - a burrito size tortilla filled with chicken and cheese. I was full after just that and had no beans. Yes she is a growing kid and may be hungrier which is fine, but it’s definitely a large volume of food.[/quote]

I’m a PP. i don’t keep a ton of sweets in the house, but I also don’t care about what they eat at parties or friends’ houses. Either they’re not going to bday parties that much, so it’s not really an issue, or they’re going a lot so the food won’t be forbidden and binge worthy anymore.[/quote]
