What NOT to say to your wife...

his 'cracker' would be stale for at LEAST a week if it were me!

:laugh: :laugh:

:laugh: :laugh: :laugh:



That wasn't from a personal experience was it LosingIt?:embarassed:

How about this.

Me" Do you like my new jeans?'
DH "Yes, you look great"
Me "They are a size 10!"
Dh" Oh, so are you done or gonna lose another 20???":noway:

His 'crackers' are STILL waitin'!!:laugh:

:laugh: :laugh:
I sat him down and explained to him one night. The commercial on TV for Relcort is true, men lose weight easier than woman.

He will say, I wanna lose weight, stop eating and drop 20 pounds in 1 month.
I am eating fruit, veggies, water, chicken and it took me 6 months to lose 25.

SOOOOOO each pound is to be celebrated!
Every INCH to be rewarded by great big WOW HONEY YOU LOOK GREAT!!!

Now, he just smiles and asks me.....What should I say!!
:laugh: :laugh: :laugh:

How about..........

when you decide to reward yourself with something that may not be considered "diet" food he says "should you really be eating that?" (he knows not to say that anymore :bigsmile: he learned the hard way...they usually do.)

or when you're looking in the mirror to see the differences and the progress you've made and he says "so, are you still losing weight and dieting?" (he's learned not to say that anymore too...now he just asks how much further til I reach my goal and when I tell him he says...good job :drinker: :laugh: )

or you're excited that you can can zip up a pair of size 6's (even if they are pretty tight at the top) and you show him and he says "you have fat rolls hanging over the top of the jeans...hope you're not buying those ones" (now he knows to just no say stupid stuff like that anymore....:bigsmile: )

Or you put on a nighty that you think is kind of sexy and he looks at you with a :ohwell: look

Or........when I do my workout video and I just get done eating something other than vegetables or chicken breasts and he looks at the skinny people in the video says something like "I bet they don't eat the type of stuff you just ate"

Stupid stupid men...lie darn it just lie and say something nice

I will say that when I told him I couldn't even pull the size 6's over my hips before he did finally say "that's awesome babe, I'm proud of you...you worked hard for this" He was forgiven He says alot of nice things to me about it and is very proud of the progress I've made he said when he said those things it was his way of pushing me to keep at it and not throw away the hard work I put into this. He said he just wanted me to think about what I ate before I did it and then complained about feeling guilty for doing it. He thinks of diet as.....well what most people think of diets.....none of this or that and eat salads and chicken and stuff. So when he sees me eat things other than "diet food" he gets confused. But I explained it to him and he gets it.....well a little bit more than he did, anyway. :drinker: :laugh:

Sorry that was long........but I feel better now :bigsmile: :laugh:

I wanted to summarize Kelch's post with out smileys

"men are schtoopid"

My crackers are stale?! Seriously?!!?!? Yep. I agree with AWTY...it would be a long time before he had fresh "crackers". :noway: SO sorry, Becky! I would have had many words for him...none of which would be very nice. :bigsmile:
