I experience the same thing when visiting my family. First there's the stress, which makes you want to eat more. Then, all they've got is junk food, which is always soooooo tempting.
Hang in there.

I understanda your pain! I have dealt with this weight and on and off dieting all my life. Sometimes parents want to be helpful and remind you. Sometimes their means of being encouraging is just "obnoxious" However, I have learned to take it with a grain of salt. You know what is best for you. You know the wrong and right foods. Eventually I just said to my mom " I know what I am eating and it is my choice, thank you for reminding me, but I need to do this myself." Now, whenever I say I am watching what I am eating. She just says, "If you want help, let me know." Its better.
