Ask them to stop buying it first. Or give them a list of things you would like. Fruit, veggies, low fat things. I've learned that changing just my choice of drink help a little, any amount loss is good even if it is small. I started drinking Crystal Light. I use the drink packs and add them to water. Its great! Try it.

Dont TRY diets - you have to change your lifestyle to lose weight and be healthy.
find daily calorie intake calculator, enter your stats and find maintenance intake- take off 400-600cal and you will lose eating that much a day.
use fitday.com to track your intake
eat 5-6 small meals a day -make healthy food choices - complex carbs, lean protein, healthy fats, dietary fiber (5-8 servings of fruit and veggies a day) etc.
cardio is the only fat burning exercise, 4-6 times a week for average of 45min, light weight training a few times a week
at least 8 glasses of water a day
no candy, junk/fast food, fried food, nothing made out of white flower, no processed foods, no sodas
