Im trying to loose weight and hubby has decided at 10.30 pm that he is having a B.L.T. Mmmmm. This bugs me for two reasons. Firstly I cant have any. Its not fair. He never used to eat this late- or is that just me never noticing as I could have some. Secondly he will attempt to clean up after his little cooking spree but I will end up having to finish clearing up. Does your man do this.

My husband is usually in bed by 9.30 so he wouldn't cook late snacks. He might make me a cup of tea before he goes and I'd have a biscuit with that. If your husband is making a snack at night, have something too. Maybe just a small bit of a BLT, or else something small and light, just so that you're not feeling too bad.

Who am I to complain. My hubby has just presented me with a chicken sandwich and I am devouring it as I am trying to type. There's not much cleaning up after that, lucky for him, so I don't have to face the mess in the morning. We both need to diet, but as there is still a feast of stuff left over from Christmas, I vowed that we would both start dieting at the beginning of Feb. I know how you must feel. I could never diet while watcing my husband eat, it's just not impossible.

i totally understand how u feel. i tryed to loose some weight a couple of years ago and my boyfriend was eating only my favorite junk food (hamburgers, kebabs, and all kind of pies) !!! and i couldn't. it smelled divine, it looked the same and i bet it tasted heavenly. and i couldn't taste it. at first i was strong about what i wanted to do. then it kept getting more and more difficult. then it was another problem. he kept asking me "are u sure u don't wanna taste it?" and i kept saying no ... until the day i said yes. it was the beggining of the end lol. i tasted once. i tasted the next day, and i started tasting even more than 1 byte the following days. until i quit my diet. now i'm planning to take another one next month and i hope he won't do the same. i already talked to him and he promissed he won't tempt me with anything since i really need this one, both for my figure and for my health. good luck resisting the temptetions lol

Oh yes my man does this too. every time i try to go on a diet, he says well if you aint eating Im not eating. Well for one he does nto even need to lose weight. and sometimes I will eat by myself earlier in the day so I wont have to go to bed on it. Or maybe i will just have a snack so I dont have to eat them high calorie foods he loves to eat. He can eat like a horse and never gain an ounce. Me, I just think about food and seem to gain a ton LOL. And he cannot see very well so fo course I get to clean up the grease splatter and all. He thinks I dont need to diet but when you get down to one pair of pants and feel like a cow in them and dont want to go out of the house, I believe it is time to slim down to get back in them little things that used to show the hips I had.
