As a direct result of my healthier cooking my husband has lost 10lbs. The problem with that is that he only weighed 149 lbs to begin with. Now has a BMI of about 21. Just waisting away over there while I struggle with every pound. MEN! lol

    And by that, standing up to pee is using it. AHAHAHAHAH

    Not me! I lost 10lbs "fairly" easy but I'm stuck. But that 10lbs still took many months.

    In my experience building muscle is a lot harder than losing fat.

    I would rather be in your position than your husband's. I guess he may be comfortable at 149lbs though...
  • I know! How frustrating!

    I was starting a new TOPS chapter (take off pounds sensibly) and my hubby joined to help me have enough members for a charter. That was last November. He has lost like 50 pounds! He gets up 2 hours before work and goes to the gym. I can't just leave the house and go to the gym because I have kids at home. It's not fair!

    True. It's not babysitting if they are your kids...

    GG.FUD by GoGirl.Pics, on Flickr
    Simply put, GoGirl is the way to stand up to crowded, disgusting, distant or non-existent bathrooms. It’s a female urination device (sometimes called a FUD) that allows you to urinate while standing up. It’s neat. It’s discreet. It’s hygienic.

    GoGirl is easy to use. Just lower your panties, and put GoGirl against your body, forming a seal. Aim and, well, pee. Pretty simple, huh?

    Not only can men pee standing up, but they also can cook for themselves.

    Don't worry about what your guy is eating. He can feed himself. Unless he's a child, you don't have to worry about what he's eating or not eating.
