I agree, I don't think they really realize what they are doing. My sister is bad at that. She will offer me something or want to go out and eat knowing that if I go to that place I will be not only falling off the wagon but THROWN off!
She isn't doing it to hurt me or to sabatage me she just doesn't think about it and she loves me and doesn't look at me the same way I look at myself!
I just told her that if she wants me to meet her for lunch or to go out with her then she has to try harder to understand and be more helpful. Ever since then she is a great help.

MtaTjac~~ Hope I did not offend you by thinking they were rude,, I was not going for that... however, I am in a better understanding now that they were not, they just was going about there normal routine,, You have changed your life not everyone around you,, I tend to tell my family this alot,, as they are not eating healthy and sometimes they seem to want to be apologetic for eating brownies, cakes or what not.. and I just remind them , the "I CHANGED MY LIFE , NOT THERES.

My family is terrible about this as well! THey are all overweight and I really am not, but I have to work HARD at it. I finally stopped it by just not eating anything at all and leaving to get something else when they did this to me. I tell them before hand...no salt, no fat. If they can't provide something healthy for me to eat, I leave. It is SO hard!!! But they will stop after a while if they ever want you to come over again! My family even goes as far as to tell me I NEED to eat b/c I am looking sickly skinny! I am 5 foot 6 and 142 lbs....not sickly skinny! I have found that they subconsciously don't want me to lose the weight b/c they can't do it themselves. If you can find the willpower to just say no and leave, you will feel so good about yourself. I also started cooking a healthy dish to bring for dinner for everyone to try. A couple of times my family liked it so much that they would make it each time I would come over! As for the sweets, they probably won't change that. Just ask them not to offer them to you. It's will power, baby! Hang in there! You can do it!

Thank you everyone for sharing!!

I've talked with my dad, as he is truly my inspiration. He had a big advantage over me though, he was told if he didn't lose 70+ pounds he would be inelligiable for a transplant, and thusly die within the year. So that was a pretty big motivation to lose the weight, no matter what. Unfortunately for me I just can't get to that...

Think of it this way. If you don't lose the weight now - when you get to your dads age that could be you. So why not change the future?

I'm definately changing it! But I just don't think I can change with all the temptation around me, so I am removing myself from those situations. At least for now
