    I don't agree with the majority of the responses. He loves you. For many of us love=food. He knows that sugary sweets are delicious and he is trying to make you happy.

    If I were you, I would tell him, "I love you baby. Thank you for being such an awesome boyfriend! (then kiss him and tell him). I made a list of delicious treats that I would love as rewards or pick-me-ups. If you want to treat me to something special, can you please give me one of the treats on my list? The things that you normally give me are delicious, but I want to try to avoid sugar as much as possible."

    You just need to be open and direct and give him other options. Acknowledge that you love him and appreciate his efforts and want him to continue loving you...just using different "goodies."

    Be happy (hugs)
