    Ok so my fiancé knows I feel abit self conscious recently because I’ve gained afew lbs, not lots but enough for me to really watch what I’m eating recently.
    Today he comes home from work with a “surprise” for me, I’m thinking ‘oh maybe a new piece of clothing or something’ but no instead he has brought me a huge salted caramel cheesecake 😕, I love the fact he’s thought about me but he knows I didn’t want crap in the house as I have no willpower. Now he is trying to say it’s not just for me but for him aswell...in 9years being with him I know he HATES cheesecake so I know he won’t touch it. I’ve discussed the whole bringing crap home for me sooo many times, if it was for him fair enough I know not to touch it.
    Each slice (8slices in total) is 384calories 😳😳😳 I can eat a whole tub of healthy icream for less then that!!!
    I know I sound like a b***h and really ungrateful but I hate hate hate when he brings crap home for me cuz I’m really trying to watch my weight as we have a holiday in September and we are getting married in two years (yes I know two years is a long way away but I want to get my dress soon so I can use it as motivation to stay in shape).
    I just want to hear from people who struggle with their other half’s and food issues

    Thanks for the reminder. I have cheese cake in the freezer!

    My hubby has a much bigger sweet tooth than I do so he tends to buy cookies, ice cream, various snacks such as those that I would never bring home and have in the house. He knows I'm struggling with my weight, so sometimes he "hides" stuff in the back of the pantry (just out of plain sight) for me. But I'm partially to blame for not sticking to any kind of diet plan and always giving in eventually. Although maybe he's to blame for that? lol.. Who knows. All I know is he is his own person and I can't change him. It's enough for me to try to change myself. So I've just joined WW in hopes that will help give me the willpower I need to get this weight off.

    Good luck!

    I’ve spoken to him and said I only want treats on MY TERMS WHEN I WANT, I’ve also stated that if he ever brings crap home like that again it’s going in the bin. I wasn’t horrible but I was stern! He apologised profusely and said he was stupid and didn’t think and will only bring home treats if I ask him, otherwise if he wants to treat me he is going to get me a piece of clothing lol hopefully he gets it now as I’ve never had to be that stern with him about food

    That's awesome! You go!

    You need a reminder? It is burned into my memory that there is a bag of chips in the cupboard, next to some chocolate bars, and ice cream in the freezer. I am ALWAYS aware that they are there WAiTING FOR ME. 😆(sobs)
