How do you handle it

Hi all I have been dieting since February and have lost 47 pounds (28 more to go) and have had to create a "willpower of steel". Here is my problem, my husband (who is so good to me) has no weight issues and can pretty much eat whatever he wants, is so hard to diet around. On road trips he will ask, do you mind if i go through a drive thru and grab something, and then i have to sit there and smell the food, while i have one of my shakes, it is so hard. Or when he wants to have pizza or snacks at night it is a killer. I have only slipped with him a couple of times but it is so hard and i am worried about what will happen once i attain my goal. I have discussed with him a couple of times and he is so apologetic and then he slips back into the same routines. Should I just let it go and deal? I try to remove myself from the room when there is pizza and other items that are not a part of my life anymore. Or maybe i am being to critical because i cannot expect everyone else to change for my lifestyle changes? Anyway I adore him and do not want to hurt his feelings just not sure how to handle it as it is an everyday struggle.

I know that my husband would stop if I asked him, maybe remind him how much you appreciate his support (when he's being "good").

Maybe when he has those cravings you can try to find a healthy option on the menu. Maybe get a salad.
