I'd rather go over in my cals than lose a friend.Can't tell you how many times that happened to me. They know your trying to lose weight but instead of doing what you ask the give you all the stuff you know you shouldent have and then try and make you feel like the bad guy when you say no.0 -

Wow, thank you so much for the judgement. AS for elderly, I meant shes not in her 20s. She celebrated her 45th recently. She has managed to give her husband and one of her kids high cholesterol and sugar. She has plenty of people always around to feed and give obesity to.
Not so much the sweet elderly lady you're imagining but an in control rich woman who will not stop over feeding people.
Check my profile page and check my pics - now come and tell me 45 is elderly. How incredibly ignorant.

cant hear so well now that I am 41
watch it woman! I'll hit you with my walker....if I could only find my reading glasses to see you..
Elderly lady jello wrestle sabotage!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Oh Etoile, I can't lift this spoon AND hold onto my zimmer frame, it's hard work...
Just don't forget your dentures ladies...

I believe that my mother is the main reason why my entire family is severely obese but I am an adult and aware of my
shortcomings and it is entirely on me, now. Yes, she still tries to sabotage me. We have to say no and be firm about it.
We try to be nice and not hurt peoples feelings but by appeasing them, we are hurting ourselves.0 -
Donate the food to a food bank or a low decile school then send your family member a big thank you card saying that the homeless people/poor kids really appreciated the food. Problem solved!0

My husband works in a supermarket and always brings lots of stuff home, if I can fit it in my macros I eat it. No point in depriving myself or I'd be setting myself up to fail.
No-one can sabotage you apart from yourself :flowerforyou:0 -

We can't bust heads like we used to. But we have our ways. One trick is to tell stories that don't go anywhere. Like the time I caught the ferry to Shelbyville. I needed a new heel for m'shoe. So I decided to go to Morganville, which is what they called Shelbyville in those days. So I tied an onion to my belt. Which was the style at the time. Now, to take the ferry cost a nickel, and in those days, nickels had pictures of bumblebees on 'em. Gimme five bees for a quarter, you'd say. Now where was I... oh yeah. The important thing was that I had an onion tied to my belt, which was the style at the time. You couldn't get white onions, because of the war. The only thing you could get was those big yellow ones...0

I think some people are just evil and they will try to entice you with goodies, just to see if you'll cave and eat one. I have a pretty good will power, when I cave it's not because of that particular evil person, but it's because I'm having an off day.
If she sends you anymore, send that crap back!!! 0 -
I agree. My husband is really bad about telling me how "ok" it is for me to have this or to have that. The bottom line is that HE wants what he shouldn't have so he thinks that if he encourages me to cheat, then I don't have a leg to stand on when it comes to telling him what he should or should not eat (he is a diabetic and incredibly obstinate). I blamed my failure with food on him for the longest time. My weaknesses are things that I have had to learn to control. Now when he says "let's go get ice cream" I am able to tell him, either "no" or "wish you had told me earlier, I didn't plan for it in my day." I love him and he wants me to be healthy, but, in his mind, that means HE has to be healthy.
No one can make you feel or do anything you do not want to do.0 -

OP, to be honest, I am my worst saboteur. And if we are truly honest with ourselves, we will find that to be the case every time.0

This guy is kind of a doofus, but I think his quote from another thread applies here:I've been out of work for a month and the office caterers don't visit the house. Funny this is, I've been eating a lot of crap and not exercising very much.
I know that the simple solution is that the problem is not my environment, but the choices I make. I know if I work hard enough, I can come up with some explanations for my choices that will garner support from the forum, and help me focus on some external issue to blame.
Problem is, I'm quite lazy. So I'm stuck with facing the truth of my situation: what I eat, what I do ends up being a result of what I put in my mouth and what actions I take. My environment has as much influence on those decisions as I allow.0 -
