Relate family to eating

I eat great most of the time, but lose control when my family is around. I tell myself over and over not to, and yet I still do. I never really noticed until my dad pointed it out that I associate spending time with my family with eating. Its a pretty simple concept and makes a lot of sense; I feel dumb for never noticing it before. I do not want to stuff my face just because I'm with them, but it seems to be a psychological thing that I just can't get control of. Anyone else have this problem?

Ultimately, I'm looking for some advice to break this habit. Any suggestions?

    I think this was my biggest hurdle... I just dont partake and find ways to add walks and video games (like wii sports) to get people up and moving
