[quote=Anonymous]I don't think making her feel self-conscious about everything she eats is the right way to go about it, but I would perhaps put a few things in a bag in the pantry - not hidden, mind you - but labeled "for family pizza night" or something else indicating that it's not for every day consumption by family members. That way it's clear that you really want some sodas for a specific time period. I remember being 20 years old and it would never have occurred to me to not eat things every day if I wanted them but to parcel them out for my family or hold off on consuming them, when I was visiting home from college. If things were in the pantry or the fridge they were "meant" to be eaten. Also, it is reasonable to ask her to put things on the grocery list if she finishes them.[/quote]
