I was soooo Good!!!

  • Well, over the weekend, my DH who sometimes NEVER stops to think about what he's doing brought a Strawberry Cheese Cake into the house. He said to me "After all, You're the one on a diet, why should I have to suffer?". .. OMG... it was hard, but I resisted temptation. NO cheese cake for me until I get down to my goal weight, and THEN I'll have to think hard about it.
  • Oh my Joan - I think I would've definitely given him some cheesecake but not exactly the way he expected it!! But good for you - glad you could say no - that is a wonderful NSV!!!!! I believe sometimes that is exactly what it takes to make us strong and stay that way!!
  • Sometimes DH's are not so dear, huh? Way to say no. I wonder if DH is feeling a little jealous of your weight loss? If he keeps up this kind of stuff, you may need to have a heart to heart with him about your diet, why you want to loose weight, and how much his support would mean to you.
  • My husband did something similar- about a week into this "journey" to my goal weight- he called me at work and told me a few people at work brought their kids Girl Scout Cookie order forms and wanted to know which cookies I wanted! I almost lunged through the phone at him. I said "none- thank you." He then proceeded to read to me all of the choices in detail. I was so mad!! But did not order any- and if he brings the ones he did home I plan on stomping on them and pouring them over his head!!
    Husbands can be so insensative sometimes!!

  • I've never posted here before.. hi, my name is Nicole.

    My hubby has learned to support me, finally, but it's taken almost 2 whole years and accompanying me to the doctor a couple of times. I have to follow a food plan for health reasons in addition to needing to lose weight, because I'm allergic to some things. My hubby now asks me if I can have this or that and if I can't it goes into a special cupboard that is for him and my daughter. I don't have to look at it except when I retreive one treat food that I keep up there.

    Ya'll sound like an awesome group of ladies!
  • Thanks everyone. It wasn't easy, and there were a couple of times that I was REALLY tempted. But then I asked myself...

    "Is that going to taste anywhere near as good as thin feels????"

    That did it for me.

    - So glad your DH has decided to support you - that is wonderful!! Mine does a pretty good job himself - he still enjoys his foods as long as it doesn't bother me -
