So, I have posted on the sucess page, as I am almost fully at my goal, and I honestly could not be any happier with my results! I like to brag that I never stop my cravings, I can not live in a world where I can not have a cookie, or some chocolate - I just work it off in the gym :)

I got my husband to start on this site, and he has also lost 51 lbs, and is looking wonderful. I tell him all the time he looks amazing, and again, he eats what he wants in moderation, and works it off. What I am struggling with, is that (TMI) during that cerain week of every month, my cravings so up, and I just want one day to fill it. I will go to the gym, work up enough calories that I dont feel too guilty having some slices of pizza or something, so a couple days ago I asked my hubby. Given, it was late at night, and it was pizza. He kind of guiltied me not to have it, so I didn't and went to bed. He made me feel bad, and even posted on a discussion how he wasn't giving in to my craving - and he didnt, good job.

BUT - I went to compare our food diaries yesterday, and he had 2 cheeseburgers, 1 big mac, a coke, and a side salad! a 1600 calorie meal, more than I get in a day to eat!!! I just couldn;t believe he would judge me on wanting a couple slices of pizza one evening, and then the next day, literally orders a whole day of food in one sitting!

I guess I just don't like to be made to feel so weak sometimes, and then I see what he is eating... errrrr.

Sorry - just needed to vent. :)

    Aww, well he did you a favour in the end if you're so close to your goal weight! Just because he's eating big macs doesn't mean you have to give in to your cravings, although it is okay to have treats every now and again - just stand your ground!

    Isn't that amazing, the cheeseburger thing. I had to give up my beloved Tacos at Taco Bell.

    At least mine's not judgmental, but man, he could stand to lose 80 pounds. Feh, looks like I'm judgmental.. maybe I am.


    And here I am, looking at the Hallowe'en candy that he just gobbles, and I swear he doesn't even taste it! I just can't spare the calories anymore, so if it's chocolate, it'll be the best chocolate money can buy.

    Btw, I can still have a Wendy's Big Bacon Classic, but once in a blue moon, not weekly like I used to and not the combo.

    Complain all you want, you only had 100 calories left for the day. I ended up with over 1100 calories left over. Its called support.

    awww that is so great. well my mom used to say "a few seconds on the lips is a lifetime on the hips" and man do I wish I had listened to her...lol.... so thank your hubby for that friendly taunting. Nothing like a little friendly competition at home. I definitely am happy that my husband comes back home today from deployment for 3 weeks cause he pushes me cause he eats enough for both of us and I tell you he is the smallest thing. Best wishes with your last few pounds to your goal
