Do you have a family member who is struggling with their weight? I have some suggestions on how you can help based on my experiences of the last few days.
Don’t make pizza at home. If you do, don’t ask if they want some. This is a double-whammy. On one side it is hard to say “no” to the smell and appearance. Strong will power is not a part of the personality of overweight people. On the other side you don’t want to hurt the cook’s feelings by rejecting their effort and offering. Rationalization never runs out of kinks.
Don’t make lemon-blueberry layer cake and text, with a picture, that you are bring some by the next day.
Don’t buy bags of chips and such and leave them around, open, on the counter.
Who knows? Perhaps if you are a little more careful in removing temptation from the dieter you might find yourself losing a few inches too. Not that you need to, I’m just saying.
