I Think my Hubby Has Been Enlightened

My husband and I entered into a weight loss challenge for this month. Weigh-in day was today and while I lost 9 pounds and several inches from eating well and doing the 30 Day Shred, he gained 1 pound. He was completely shocked and I was a little too. I expected him to lose a little but not much with his method. My hubby stopped working out because he didn't want to build muscle and skew the results. I told him that was silly and that doing weights and cardio would still result in a loss. He chose to do nothing.
Not exercising still doesn't explain the gain though. I think he's finally been been enlightened regarding his soda consumption. He ate really well this month. Superb actually with the exception of his soda addiction. He drank 2 cans of Coke every night. That's an additional 320 calories and a ton of sugar.
I feel happy I won because he was being so smug and arrogant thinking he was going to beat me but I'm not happy that he didn't succeed. I really hope this is what it takes for him to realize he needs to give the soda up.
