Uggh! I am doing so well..and I know i need to put these things in prospective...but tonight my husband, after eating a filling healthy meal goes out w/ my 8 yr old son and comes home w/ a box of 23 munchkins! Now..he knows i love these freekin things and that i used to eat them all the time. I tried to explain to him that this is showing no respect for me doing this...He could have brought home 1 donut for our son...not 25...and w/ that he is teaching at least some portion control and showing our son that good eating habits are important....instead he brings this box of fat home. I told him that 3 donuts have like 300 cal in them...just 3 of those little buggers. Im not having any..im going to stay strong...but then he sees me working out again tonight doing my evening w/o and says..."wow babe..you are so motivated..your motivating me" and he sits down w/ a bag of chips and salsa... Oooh yeahhh i see just how motivated your fat tush is! At least my fat tush is on the weight bench. Oh well..had to vent. I just hate it when someone does this kind of thing and says..."well, you dont have to eat them." No Sh__ sherlock! but i didnt get where i am today eating carrot sticks either..im a professional :-D
 
i'm so glad that you were able to resist!!! It will be really interesting to see how well i keep this up when i move back home for the summer... I'll be living half time at my boyfriends and have time at my parents (basically, wherever i am, i'll crash for the night) My boyfriend and his brother are both skinny as a rail and eat whatever they want, whenever they want.... my family eats alot and are not skinny at all... Me trying to eat healty and work out might be difficult in both of those situations. I hope that I can have your willpower!!!
 
Good for you for not giving in!! I know how difficult husbands can be. Mine is actually dieting with me now, which is a big help, but for the longest time, when I'd want to talk about loosing weight, or how I feel bad about it, he'd roll his eyes and tell me he doesn't want to hear about it. "Just loose the weight or shut up" is his normal responce. Then when I'd start dieting and talk about cutting calories, or excersizing, I'd see him roll his eyes, and when I'd say "this is important to me!" he'd say "honestly Korrie, its just dieting" Now that I look back, maybe me talking about it made him more consious of his own weight problems and he didn't like it.

ANYWHO...the whole point is I understand and I'm sorry. I know today was a bad night but is he usually supportive of your efforts??
 
LMAO. im starting to think we have the same husband lol mine always says that "you dont have to eat them" well duh! :rolleyes: he actually said that i should stop exercising b/c its making to many changes around here lol as if get used to it buddy. glad you had the will power to stay away from them. and your right its all about how you fuel your body,and it sure doesnt need crap like that. good for you, im so proud :D
 
Thanks to all you ladies out there ...can I get a "hell ya!" I know we all put up w/ the same garbage. the issues I have is I dont want our 8 yr old or our littlest son to have a weight problem...and you only learn what your taught and what you see... I am also sick of watching him just get pudgier and lazier...he works hard at his job but thats it...He never wants to have sex..man Im just tired of it. I work 30 hrs..take care of a house, 2 kids, make all the meals..etc etc..and he just works and comes home to a warm dinner and getting hotter wife..who is about to look into a gigilo if things dont perk up! Anyway..thanks for listening and sharing all of your "work it thru" stories.. I know that my health is worth way more than a freekin munchkin!
Thanks L..I do think we have the same hubby.. scary huh!
