    I can totally relate to everything you guys are saying here. My hubbys family also equates food with love, or so it seems. It's sad really. His dad is 64 and is having health problems currently. He has gained a lot of weight recently around the middle & has had pains in his arms and chest for awhile. It's horrible, but somehow, they don't understand it's because of the FOOD you're ingesting. She continues to cook for him like that every single night. The guy is doomed. I won't let her take down my husband though. It just feels like a lost cause because I TELL HER not to bring cake, cookies, muffins etc. and she totally disregards it. It doesn't matter what i want IN MY OWN HOUSE, she brings it over anyways and says its "for the kids and my husband" aka it's "not my business". We've worked HARD to keep our home junk free. We don't buy junk food at all. IF we have a little cheat treat, it's something small that is gone that night. We don't keep bags of chips etc. I'm so frustrated with her. Argh. I don't care what she does with her husband, but I'm tired of her sabotaging mine. He obviously had a food addiction to gain up to 450lbs. He is finally HAPPY with where he is at, and she's trying to push him back over the edge. I don't know what else to tell this woman. I've already asked her to stop countless times. She ignores me. I don't matter. My husband has also told her to stop sending food, but everyday we'll go home and something has been put into our fridge. KILL ME NOW!!!!!! lol

    Change the locks, she has to much access to your life.

    Oh and as far as his eating in front of you and her bringing the treats over, they're definitely trying to sabatoge you LOL. When I began my weight loss journey, my husband was bad about offering pizza and icecream even though he knew I was trying to lose weight. I completely ignored it and kept up with my own healthy living and after a time, he stopped. I'm not sure why husbands do this, maybe they're afraid of change. He is proud of me though and takes every opportunity to tell me how good I look. It just took awhile for him to realize I wasn't trying to turn into a health nut or trying to become anorexically skinny.
