danie0708 47 Posted February 15, 2013 Maybe we should just fill the house with only foods we can eat- buy enough for everybody. That way everybody is on the new eating plan. After weeks of going to the kitchen to find my healthier choices gone and the junk left that is exactly what I did. And no one has complained about the lack of junk food.

melissa130 135 Posted February 15, 2013 Most people do like their Protein Shakes. They are healthy powerful drinks. Those who use them long term to maintain weight loss are not lazy!!! They are very smart and most likely will have the most success with sustained weight loss. Some of the negativity on this forum gets to me sometimes. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
fluffylibra30 323 Posted February 15, 2013 I cleaned out all the "bad" food and filled it with healthy stuff we could all enjoy, just be glad they are eating the healthier stuff and trying to do it with you. Just don't let them eat the last one or make it known they must fill it back up. Nothing like thinking about a granola bar all day and getting an EMPTY BOX! Grrr throw the dang box away please!!

SMO 193 Posted February 15, 2013 I think Grammy is just poking at the Protein Shake container with a sharp stick, Melissa. They can be difficult to deal with when you can't have anything else. I am sitting here queasy from my eleven millionth freaking Protein shake so I am in total sympathy with her. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Sharon's last chance 88 Posted February 16, 2013 Maybe you need your own frig shelf and cupboard space that is off limits to the rest of the gang. Or buy some red yard sale stickers and mark your food with the stickers. Make it clear that when there is a red sticker, it means STOP, don't eat this it's moms. Your husband and children can learn to respect that these special foods are what you need to continue to improve your health. I love the idea of them eating healthier but still think you should be able to have what you need clearly marked or in a special area that you can count on to be there when you want/need it. Good luck! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
