Thanks Lift & Red, it helps my guilt.
The only time I feel guilty about not eating what's prepared is at my MIL's place. My mom tries to send me my favorite foods too, but at least I've made her understand that I really need to lose this stubborn weight and she respects that.
I love my MIL dearly and she spends ALL of her life cooking with a family that don't appreciate her as much as they should. She was always so disappointed in me when I wouldn't eat what she'd prepared in my LF days, like it's an insult to her cooking. So I've come to feel guilty about it, knowing how happy it makes her when I eat her food.
It sounds silly, but I know that one day soon, she won't be around for me to enjoy her wonderful cooking. So I do the best I can when I go. At least I got her to stop putting out appetizers/junk food before dinner. That helps a bit.
