Extra food

Anyone have problems with food places you frequently go to or used to go to give you extra food? I work night shifts as a nurse and our cafe stays open all night. This all started about 2 years ago when I was pregnant and was there ALL.THE.TIME. I ate whatever whenever and they would frequently give me extra food and of course I didn't mind. Fast forward 60 pounds. Now I"m trying to get rid of the weight but they still give me extra food! I just ordered a caramel latte and asked for a small for which I got a large and I swear he must have squirted half the bottle of caramel into the cup. And then they look at you half crazy if you refuse the extra :huh:

    Yes - the only thing that works for me is to send it back or make a point of leaving the excess, otherwise they still think they're doing me a favour.

    never really exp. this, but i know when i have a large portion of something that i know is going to kill me...i usually just eat the portion i chose, and throw the rest out or give to someone else.

    You don't have to have it all, so just portion to suite your needs no matter what.

    I most definitely wont be drinking it all. I can only drink half of a small before I toss the rest out.
