[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I have the reverse problem, my MIL's house has a huge walk-in pantry filled to the hilt with every type of juice box and junk food imaginable. Fortunately, my MIL has learned to get Sensible Sippers and other no sugar added juices, she has started buying organic snacks and potato chips fried in avocado oil, more fruit.... But man, once your kid has a Gusher, there is like no turning back. Family meals are like 7 sides and 4 types of protein on the grill with enough leftovers to feed us twice over.

When they visit us it's 3 giant meals out to eat everyday, I feel like I'm rolling around by the end of the week. I love them, and I love going out to eat with them, but they definitely overdo it EVERY time not just once in a while.  [/quote]

I don't understand why YOU feel like you're "rolling around." You control how much actually goes in your mouth. Just becasue there are seven sides available doesn't mean you have to take them all. If others want to overeat, OK. If your kids get a few extra treats, OK. But no one is shoveling food in your mouth. Even if they have it stocked/around/available, you are the only one responsible for how much you eat, and what you eat.[/quote]

I'm rolling around because it's excessive. Even if I just eat salads it feels overly-decadent. I don't normally eat breakfast and I always have a small lunch. It's just not the way I am![/quote]

Then don't eat when you're not hungry, dum-dum![/quote]
