Starting my weight loss journey (6’4 290lbs) and my family is not helping whatsoever. I just bought all my healthy foods and had it stacked neatly in the refrigerator, just for my family to put a bunch of junk food right in front of it. I politely asked them to please not leave it out in the open as it really tempts me when I see that type of food. They constantly order takeout and delivery, and it’s always family-sized. Pizza, Chinese food, tacos etc. When it’s not that, they have large family sized chips, cookies, donuts, soda etc. All the garbage you can think of, they just eat it up. And I’m accustomed to eating like that as well, so it’s very difficult to sit there and watch it.
Now you’re probably going to say, “just don’t eat it”
Yeah, I don’t want to. But I do want to at the same time. There’s a massive mental struggle involved with it. It’s like a drug addict enters rehab but the drugs are just sitting out, right in their faces tempting them. I’ve tried talking to them but I just get the same response. “You don’t have to eat it.” They don’t understand the mental struggle they’re inflicting on me by having all that junk laying everywhere. I don’t mind if they eat their junk food, that’s on them, but they know I’m actively trying to lose weight and I just feel so disrespected when I see a box of cookies just casually sitting on top of my meal prep containers.
