LOL..well..that happened in our house. My DH..who did/does NOT need to lose weight...said my dinners look healthy and delish...and he wanted me to STOP preparing 2 meals. Since August he eats what I eat. Before the holidays he started hijacking my stash of protein drinks a few days a week instead of a "Real Lunch". His blood glucose has always been in the normal range, but always high normal.. (Over 112 often as high as 117)....and something we kept tabs of. He had a routine physical in late Dec and it was 99. He donated blood last week and it was 93! He went on a modified P1 for a week after Christmas and lost 5 lbs in 8 days! He is converted and now kneels at the alter of lo carb living. Most of the time.
He is on board. Boy is he ever. Now ..he can snack, and have wine and it does not affect him the way it affects me...but he is quite happy with grilled protein, a salad and a fresh veggie for dinner. Tuna for lunch or a protein drink and a salad. No rice and not so many starchy things in his salads...and he has cut was back on wine. (Tired of drinking alone I guess!!)
So...this diet and the new lifestyle may actually look pretty good...even to those who don't think they need it!!!
