Frequently hosting friends for the weekend, yikes
I've lost 27 lbs this year, with another 15 to go. I'm not sure if this is too niche, but I have a family cabin that we use in the spring and summer. We frequently (2 or 3x a month) host groups of 5-7 friends and people take turns cooking. They bring special treats and drinks as this is their big holiday for the year. Chips , cookies, pancake breakfast, bacon, etc! This is food I don't even keep in my house because of the temptation. It's really hard to track or avoid all the treats, it's a small place and we all eat together. It's not just for one meal, but all weekend long. What's a good approach here? I don't want to ruin everyone else's fun but I'm worried I will go backwards with my progress. It's hard not to participate in the social fun when appetizers and drinks are coming around on a tray. When it's my turn to cook I try to make something that works for my goals, but it's a drop in the bucket of a weekend overload. Anyone have any tips or a balanced approach to being a good host?
