Angry with Husband

You could poison your next batch of muffins...Problem solved!

I was practically crying from laughing so hard over these gummi bear reviews... You guys gotta read them:laugh:

Hilarious, right??? I was sore from laughing!!!!! "My poor little starfish..." Ha!!!

I use to hate when family members only bought regular ice tea/soda but would drink my diet ice tea/soda when they ran out.

This is the issue really. Runs out of regular soda, drinks my diet stuff. Runs out of muffins, eats mine. Runs out of gelato, eats the slow churned vanilla. These are things he would normally never consider bu all of a sudden he's on them like A. They're the only thing around (not true) B. He can't drive to the store and C. He doesn't know how to cook his own food. Which he does. He makes his own breakfast every morning (I generally am against waking up at 4am to attempt to cook, so he's gotta fend for himself)

I mean, it's bad enough I can't have the 400 calorie muffins he eats, but then he has to nom all of mine too. He clearly doesn't appreciate the large TDEE he's been graced with.

Doesn't this seem like the problem. I understand your frustration and yes the eating the food you put on a plate for yourself is a bit much but it sounds like you do the cooking and shopping (it's called a relationship). Maybe he just needs to know where he *can* go for food. Maybe having a dedicated snack/food cabinet for him (and maybe one that's just your food and you ask him not to eat from it).

Seems like he doesn't realize what the ok to eat snacks are or what the ok to eat food is. My hubby doesn't make food (unless it's hotdogs - because i refuse). But i need to make sure, easy to eat food is available for him. That looks like cereal with milk, tuna fish and bread, hot dogs, cottage cheese, granola bars etc. If you have a bunch of food easily available for him, and he eats yours different story. If he's running out, then maybe buy more. Stock up on non-perishables.

if the worst thing he does is eat food you earmarked for diet, you're doing pretty good.

Does he have a tapeworm?!

I don't know how to post a link, but here is a 5 lb bag of sugar free gummy bears that will solve allllll your problems (read the product reviews... They're awesome!)

At first I was like 'how the hell is this gonna help' and then I started reading and it allll became clear.

BRB, placing an order. He actually happens to love gummy bears.

That'll do the trick. True story. :blushing:

Oh GOD. I ate 2 handfuls of sugar free gummy bears once. WORST PAIN OF MY LIFE.

I was curled up in the fetal position and moaning FOR HOURS.

The dirty rat. Can you talk to him? Clearly he has some passive aggressive issues with your nice food.

WOW! First I just gotta say you sound like an awesome cook! Second, wow, wth? A few months ago we were at my daughters house and my hubby went to the grocery store and bought a bunch of stuff. He clearly told everyone at the house that the almonds were not to be touched by anyone but me because they were my before bed time snack and he did not want me to run out. I was upset with him because I thought he was being rude. After reading your post, he is off the hook on that one! wow.

There is nothing worse than people who eat your food. All these people on MFP complain about people bringing them food.

No. True anger can be felt when someone EATS ALL YOUR FOOD.

I think you should eat him.

Giggity.

Actually laughing aloud!!

OMG..my husband would be DEAD!!! I am not sure why yours has survived this long....I say leave a milk on the table for him with some nice laxatives for him to steal..I guarantee he would not pull that crap again. As it is, I have to deal with two begging dogs at home and my boss's dog at work that constant hound me for MY food! I try to tell them I don't get alot to eat so I can't give it up...they aren't gettin' it...lol

Seriously though, I'd be mad too. Food is sacred. Do not touch my food unless I have given you permission.

Knowing you, you wouldn't have married a *totally* unreasonable guy. I vote you simply tell him to stop touching your food, or you will delete his most prized WoW character.

This is the type of woman I need in my life. One that will keep you on track. No holds barred, take no prisoners, and sacrifice all that is sacred. Why did you wake up Saran Wrapped to the bed?! Probably, shouldn't have eaten the last Vanilla Fudge Drumstick... QQ

Sounds like he loves food more than you. Some dudes just aren't marriage material.

Have you talked to him about it and let him know how you feel. Forgive me if you answered this already, but I don't have time to read the entire thread, I have a second workout waiting for me before i go to work.

lol i'm not the OP
