The Hardest Part

Well first off, congratulations that you've decided to live a healthier life!

Do you guys live together?
Try to talk to him about how it's giving you a hard time when he eats all that junk while you're trying to stick to something healthy. Cook something nice for you both & you might convince him to join in with you.
If he doesn't want to, I guess it's up to you to be strong and just say "No, I'll stick to my healthy stuff". Remind yourself why you're doing this & how bad junk is & what it does with your body.
It will be all worth it in the end!

But remember to have a treat every now & then. You shouldn't feel like you're missing out on something. It's not that bad if you over your calorie goal every now & then, as long as your weekly average is saved you'll be fine!

Tis just life i'm afraid, you are doing this for you, not to change your other half. What he eats is of no concern for you. If you want to change your body and lose weight ignore the stuff he snaffling and concentrate on yourself.

aye!
just becomes more frustrating when he says he's unhappy with his current appearance and I am such a helping kind of person by nature

::shrug::

Besides, I have noticed that I feel better in the days and my fidgety habit of picking at my fingernails has become nearly non existent since I started....I know I will make it

PS: thanks XD

Hmmm if he's a little fluffy round the belly then maybe when he sees you looking all foxy and shizz after losing a bit of tubbiness he might start wanting to cut out the crap anyway....

I think my biggest thing is the "I'm not happy with my weight/appearance/size/health" but doing nothing to change it...

I have no qualms about turning down an oreo!
I actually have like 6 boxes of GS cookies I haven't even touched yet .

I allow myself the little things (i gorged on french fries yesterday because i wanted them that badly)

But I REALLY DO appreciate all the input and support

Ah yes that must be annoying, if he's moaning but not willing to change anything. Stoopid men!!

You can't change other people, only yourself. There will always be "naughty" food around you. You have to find a way to deal with it. If your partner is complaining about his appearance, but doing nothing to change it, you may just have to do nothing and let him see some more real life consequences before he'll be ready to change. Some people react to support and encouragement, some react better to seeing what really happens if they stay on the path they're on. I think it links into practical learning. Allowing him to see those consequences could be the kind of support he needs.

It's the same at my house, been doing this for just over a year, and I have to watch my g/f eat chocolate bars / icecream / cream cakes / fast food and she herself says she not happy with herself and how she looks.

Its hard but in a way, I do feed of her weakness (not to sound nasty here) as in I can do this and you cant (ok that sounds childish)

I also find it hard because I'm the cook in this house cooking for a family of 5 and only me on a diet and to not put anything in my mouth as I'm cooking for them when it smells so nice.

I do get mad sometimes, mainly at night when I cant eat (no cals left or just to late), and all I can see is wrappers on the sofa arm or the smell of bacon cooking in the kicken, not so bad in day if they grab a chocolate bar I can grab a apple.

And now I've lost some weight she got it into her head that I'm going to leave here for someone better (her words not mine), after watching a diet show on UK tv and the husband left his wife after losing weight.

So like you, my main support is MFP, but o my what a support system it is

In the same boat.

I don't expect him to change... but I do secretly hold out a little hope that he will decide to live a healthier lifestyle :flowerforyou:
The only frustrating part is when he criticizes others that complain about not being able to lose weight, talking about how it's not rocket science, calories in/out, move more, eat better, etc... which is not untrue, but I don't like that he criticizes others for not making a change that he himself isn't willing to put the effort into.

I eat completely differently than my husband. I do cook one protein and I put mine on a huge salad with balsamic vinegar and other veggies. I make him a starch, give him bread and he eats whatever veggie I am having with my salad. I also started doing this at my parents and in -laws. I do go out every now and then and make sure to order healthy.
