For dinner my parents are making sloppy joes. How can I eat with them without cheating my diet? Would it be ok if I just grabbed a roll and spread a small spoonful on it to just cover the bottom & didn't take any side dishes? I know it would be better without the roll, but I think I would end up eating more bbq/sloppy joe meat if I didn't eat the roll at all. What are your suggestions? Thanks!

If not, I was thinking you could ask them to buy wheat rolls for the sloppy joe's. They are healthier and they fill you up better than regular ones. Also, you can still have sides as long as they are healthy like steam veggetables or a baked potato without all the toppings? I'm worried that if you only have a sloppy joe for dinner you will still be hungry later.

This should make you a little more full, so you would eat less.
