Your MIL sounds just like mine. I don't hink she's intentionally trying to sabotage you, but just doesn't get it! My MIL is always going on about how hard it is for her to lose weight and she just doesn't have the time, patience, money etc....She always has some excuse as to why she just can't lose weight. It gets aggrivating cause I know that if she really wanted to do it she could make the time, she would make herself have the patience and if she would just stop eating out ALL THE TIME she would have the money to do it! Another aggrivation of mine is the way she will comment on my eating "Good for you!...I wish I had your will power" and then 10 minutes later she ask's me if I want a brownie! Grrrrrr the woman drives me nuts! She is also under the impression that if she buys everything "light" or "low fat" then she will lose weight...Uhhh that lite sour cream isn't doing you any good when you are dipping deep fried taquitos in it! Just stand your ground! I would tell her "sure, go ahead and buy the groceries if you insist, but we are still going to go buy our own. And if the scale bothers you that much then don't look at it!" Good luck with the visit and let us know how it goes!
