Ok, here is my situation. My hubby and kids and I live with my parents. I am trying really, really hard not to buy crap food so it is not in the house. I have accepted the fact that if I buy it, I will probably eat it. I try to cook healthier meals (I usually cook dinner), and I usually do the main grocery shopping. Here is the problem: my mom also goes to the store, and she brings home cakes and cookies and biscuits and ice cream. She says my dad likes them (well, he does, but that is another issue), so she will keep buying them. And then my hubby, trying to be sweet brings me a Milky Way or an icee. I want to strangle him, but he is just trying to do something nice for me. And my kids... I don't even know where to start. My oldest is tall and thin, no matter what she eats. My little one has a tendency to be heavier, and we have recently started talking about how much sugar she eats, and I make her make choices between two things instead of having both. I got off track... So I cook a healthy dinner - fish, green beans, roasted potatoes, something like that, and my mom comes in and makes a big pot of spaghetti because she doesn't feel like eating what I have prepared.

This is so frustrating! Everybody says they support me, and are willing to eat healthier too (we are ALL overweight, except my daughter), but constantly undermine the things I do. Nobody will go with me to work out, even if it is just to the pool in the backyard, and the fridge is constantly full of stuff we shouldn't eat. Right now, there is a box of eclaires. I actually got fussed at this morning for putting an ice cream container back in the freezer with "a tablespoon" of ice cream left in it. It was actually about a cup, more than ample for a normal serving.

So, this is really frustrating for me. Do you guys have problems with this kind of thing? How do you fight it?
