Partner doesn't understand dieting....

My husband eats whatever he wants and NEVER puts on weight either!!! BUT he never offers me anything, he totally understands how hard I work and the issues I have surrounding food....plus if he did I would donk him over the head!!!

Really it's up to you to just say NO......guy's just don't think sometimes especially when they don't have to worry about these things.....I've been doing a 12 week challenge where I have to eat "clean" and can't drink alcohol....he sits there eating his junk and drinking beer EEEKKKK.....I can't honestly say it doesn't bother me anymore, you just have to get used to it really...:o) But you could let him know offering you things you are trying to elimenate is NOT helpful!!!

Same problem. We had a lot of trouble with this! He is adorable, but knows nothing about dieting. He is skinny as a twig and really muscular due to genetics (his mom and brother are just like him)! So, we have a few things that have really helped: when he gets something naughty, he gets me the mini version or the lower-calorie version. Example: he gets haagen daz ice cream and gets me low fat frozen yogurt or he gets a pizza and he gets me a single-serving pizza. Another thing is having a separate cupboard dedicated to "his" foods. He eats all kinds of crap and as long as I don't peek in there I never want to eat it! the worst stuff though (like snickers and m&ms) that I can't resist, I have him hide. haha sounds bizarre but it really works for us. Good luck! I know how hard boys can be :P

i can relate to this completely. my bf is underweight & eats like a bottomless pit. he has 2 brothers & no sisters, so he can't relate to weight issues at all. when we're together, we eat out constantly because we both still live with our parents & though he's acknowledged i've gained a decent amount of weight & likes me body better smaller- he is awful at giving support, though to his defense he does try. if i whine he'll either advise i just skip lunch or dinner or he'll tell me to go to the gym and in the same breath he'll offer me part of his meal or ask if i want an appetizer wherever we are. he's also the type to try to be sweet & bring me chocolate when i'm pmsing & buy me an extra drink at the bar whenever mine gets low... which would be great things if i wasn't counting every calorie i put in my mouth. how i've coped is that i tell him when i have small victories, like dropping a few more pounds or when something fits me again that he knows was tight & he also has made the effort to comment when he notices parts of me are looking nicer (also a big deal because he isn't the complimenting type) & sometimes his compliments are said with good intentions & come out all wrong & i have to remind myself he means it positively & in his boy mind it sounds good, though my overly sensitive mind isn't thrilled with what actually came out of his mouth. ) i've also begun making him eat the 'naughty' foods he brings for me with a reminder that i can't have them right now.
