Great ideas Pauline!! My sister-in-law is a big one for criticizing my food when I try to eat healthy... of course she's plus-size and orders deep-fried cheesy dinner most of the time, then tells me not everyone has the "luxury" of working out (I work f/t and have kids - hello!?!?)...
Ok - slightly off-track there
... I do like the idea though - a loaded plate might shut her up if she doesn't pay too close attention. Although if we eat at her house, the ONLY healthy option is whatever I bring
