So it feels a little lose-lose. Has anyone been in a similar situation?
Having a husband is sort of the same.....he like different things and eats at different times. But I've noticed that he hardly notices how much I take. He wants to eat together at least at night. He's a veterinarian and has always had weird hours. Now that we are older and his practice is slowing down he is around more. But he farms, too, so is always busy. He's a semi intuitive eater but is a little overweight. As for drinks, I've read you can drink what you want with other food but don't substitute drinks for food through out the day. The will kill your appetite for other food. But as Rob Stevens says, if you eat sweets and nothing else for 3 days in a row you will crave other things. I don't worry about drinks but really now I prefer water. I've never been a pop drinker but my husband is. I stopped drinking milk much a few years ago when I had a high blood calcium problem. Everyone is different.
