    Everyone should take a healthy meal everyday, this is the only thing which leads to get good health. Junk foods are OK to save time or for taste but its not good for health if eaten all time again and again.

    Make stuff he likes and you eat a smaller portion to make it healthy/less caloric. If you want to eat the same things, someone has got to budge - is he on a diet? If not, then you should budge, imo, or just eat different things at dinner time.

    why should she be the one to budge? that sounds ridiculous. she is the one putting the effort in to make the meals. it doesnt sound like hes giving her any input to help her make something he would enjoy when she asks. if he doesn't like the food, he can make his own.

    It sounds ridiculous because you ignored a major premise:

    Desires husband to like what she makes for dinner. (i.e. not doctor her cooked meal with salt, turn it into a sandwich, etc.)

    Presumably she doesn't want to prepare 2 meals. She wants her husband to like what she cooks.

    She didn't ask for marital advice or for anyone's opinions on her husband and her marital roles.




    Pot..meet kettle?

    That is what I was thinking, too. My husband needs more calories than I do and he gets them both through extra servings of what I make and several bowls of cereal at night. Turning what you make into a sandwich sounds like a great option.

    ^This...
    OP, you are overweight and want/need to make a change. Your husband is thin and does not feel the want/need to change anything. Would it be better if he was more supportive? Yes... that said, he is not. If he wants a sandwich, let him have a sandwich. You are his wife, not his mother...

    I have a feeling that this thread on the forums is just gonna keep going downhill because some people (men) must be bitter af.

    Ladies thank you for the constructive answers and ideas. And some healthy venting. The healthy sirracha meatloaf was a hit that I got the idea from the turkey one posted on here was a great success and I will try some of the others too.

    And you're not bitter all right...

    and I got flagged for that...
