I see a direct correlation to eating out = gaining weight. When I prepare my own food in my own home it's definitely better for me. But, it also means staying away from junk food -- chips, crackers, pretzels, candy, cookies, etc. Some people may be able to handle these in moderation. I have to admit I do have these on occasion, but I haven't been that successful either. This is a radical change and if you are committed to it, then you have to stick to whatever your plan is... even if you think it's not working, give it some time.
One thing I will say is, it's great that your fiance is going to work on this with you, however, make a commitment for yourself... it's hard enough for one person to do this let alone two people. I hope you are both successful but if he is not ready, keep moving forward. Don't make it an excuse. It is SO easy to do that! My husband is average weight, and we do exercise together, but I have noticed that I tend to put things on him. We'll exercise if he says to do it. It's not good for me, and so I'm warning you... if he doesn't want to do it, do it anyway. I'm telling myself the same thing I'm telling you.
It's a long, hard journey... but we can do it if we set our minds to it!
