My Mother-in-law, father-in-law and 12 year old sister-in-law are moving to live by us from out of state so they are going to stay with us for probably a month or so. My husbands great grandparent are from SIcila so his Mom cooks then best italian food and my husband is so excited for all of his favorites, My mother-in-law has sturggled with her weight before she had a stomach staple and she know that I am trying to lose weight. I have known her since I was 13 so she know that I am so unhappy with my body right now. I am so scared that when they get here my routine and eatting habits are going to be thrown out the door. I am not really going to have a place to exercise and I live in Texas and we are record breaking heat right now so getting outside to exercise is hard. What do I do? I have 2 weeks till they get here with a billion things to do and my husband works nights so I get very little time to do them. HELP!!! Any suggestions with any and everything.
Thank you!

I suggest making it very clear to them that you have set eating habits and that you are trying to lose weight. Just make sure they understand what you are doing and hopefully they will respect that by not tempting you. Good luck, that must be hard!0

Girl, I feel your pain. My parents are both Sicilian and came to visit me and stayed here for 3 weeks, and so did my sister. My parents both cook unbelievable delicious Italian food, and I just had to tell them, that hey, I will be eating my own meals, and they can't be offended because I am trying to do something for myself. They understood. So they made their own things and I ate some on occasion, but for the most part stuck to my guns and ate my own meals.
I still lost weight while they were here, so I am sure you will do just fine!!!!
Ciao bella!0
