Help my family keeps eating all of my food!!!
I know the feeling. I'm trying to gain weight because I'm only like 87lbs but every time I get food or my husband gets food his family gobbles it down. It's 3 other people in our house and 20+ hot dogs and hamburgers will be gone in a night... :-\ I don't understand do they think all the food is going to disappear or get stolen?
I can relate to this myself... I am still pre-op but am making changes for the journey ahead of me.
But danged if yah dont just wanna wring their cotton picking necks sometimes. Especially when they go to the store with you and pick out something for themselves, then they eat up the yogurt you picked out for yourself, and they save their chocolate to eat in front of you when you have nothing left. LOL
This has happened to me more than once, so I began taking my neice and nephews goodies and hiding them everytime I see them in my yogurt or other snacks.
That slowed the consumption on my snacks a little, but not completely.
Therefore next trip to the store for healthy snacks I made... I came back with a bag full of yogurts, and no chocolate for them. They got theirs and I got mine.
So I guess the best deal all around is to buy enough of what you like so everyone can have some wonderfully healthy snacks.
