HELPPPPPPPPPP ME PLZ

:frown: I need help I make meals and do grocery shoping for my family. In the house i have potato chips, stuff shells, crackers and other tempting things. I cant make my family suffer and eat healthy because they wouldnt go for that. How do i stop being tempted not to eat the bad stuff. I really tried not to eat them i sit down and i swear they call my name and say " you want me come and eat some of me" And sometimes i give in. I had gastric bypass surgery 3 years ago and lost alot of weight but i ended up gaining it again. when i tried eating some of these bad foods 2 years ago i would get sick and wouldnt eat it again but now im so far out of the surgery i try them again and find i can eat them with out getting sick.

  • who says they cant eat healthy?? dont assume they will hate everything you make. my mom has done wonders on my lil brother and step dad replacing things with tofu and whole wheat. they were resistant at first but they just got used to it. if you buy the food and cook the meals then they can not complain. we live by the rule you cant say you dont like it until you try it and at least 3 bites ^_^ hope that helps stay strong you arent alone

    There is "junk food" I don't like.....that is the only junk food I will buy.
    In reality they shouldn't be eatting that kind of food either. Hate me now for not buying it.....thank me later that you are not morbidly obese.
    If you have to buy it have them hide it or lock it up!

    Have you ever checked out emeals.com ??? I get a weekly recipe list and grocery list with low carb options. You can do low fat, low carb, portion control...etc. They usually have great specials on their subscriptions. Just a thought. Also the biggest loser website and beachbody website (im a coach there so if you have questions please ask me!) those websites also offer recipes and grocery list options.
  • Thank you all for your advice, sorry it took me so long to write back but ive been dealing with alot of stuff at home. And ive been really sick and still not feeling well. As for hubby and son eating all the snacks well my hubby is 6ft and weighs 120 he never gains weight. Im so jealous. He says he has to eat all this stuff with his meals because if he dont he loses weight. He tried to gain weight but nothing works. Now im locking it up and only hubby has the key.:wink:
