Hey now. Don't go hatin. It just seems like I eat everything in sight. I hardly eat anything during the week.0
-
Yup! He's eating again right now too.:noway:0
-
Mhm. Mhm. Mhmmmm. To make matters a little worse, I eat frequently at his place and (he lives with his grandmother) his grandmother cooks whatever the hell he wants. And I've told her how I'm dieting, and she either forgets, or she doesn't understand that vegetarians don't eat pork chops.
Yes, dieting is very difficult.0 -
yup. And it shows...0

YES :noway:0

Yes... we logged my BF's ffod for the last month and he averages 6000 cals a day.... thats a light day. If he's really being a pig its more like 10,000. He is 6'4" and weighs 220....skinny as a rail. Kinda makes you want to hurt him!0

yup. And it shows...

ouch!0 -
yep - grossly under estimates caloric intake and then wonders why he can't loose weight.....0

How about friends that bring over homemade carrot cake with cream cheese frosting... for the kids!?!?! Really? WTH.
And, yes I did have a small slice and it was delicious but that just sucks!0 -

Holy crap! Mines like that too, except he's about 5'9 or 6'0 and 160 something -____-;;0 -
He is trying to eat better. But it definitley helps me make better choices when he makes them too.0
-
Yep! And when he cooks it is usually fried and always potatoes involved.
At least he has finally gotten the hint that I won't eat that and started cooking something grilled/baked for me and unless the potato is baked, he will make brown rice for me.....but that doesn't really help in trying to teach the kids what a balanced meal is.
Oh and yeah, he also pisses me off that he can eat like that, eat every sweet in the house and weigh what he does.0 -
yup... chips, icecream by the gallon, sugary sodas, cakes, cookies.. etc. and yes.. he is very overweight.. and has no intention of changing.0

Oh myy I would do the same

Mine is trying to build mass, so he eats a lot. He doesn't even have to give up everything I do. Sigh0

That's what I'm sayinnn! Damn men with high metabolism0 -
Yes, she eats whatever she wants and all the time. But she is 9 months pregnant.0

hahahaha thats exactly my hubby too. he is 6'4" and 230lbs and he can eat anything and get away with it and he drinks coke like there is no tomorrow or if he has no coke its anything with sugar in it. he doesnt really ever drink water unless its the only thing around and he needs a drink.lol. i wished i could do that but i know where that got me.lol. but its ok i have done great with my will power of saying no and telling him its ok your eating about 1000 cals in one meal or snack. better him then me i guess. lol my sister is the same she is a skinny mini and eats junk all the time and yet she doesnt gain anything but they both are a great support to me and tells me how proud they are of my choice to make me happy and they make sure if they offer something to me that i can eat it.0

I feel your pain!! My hubby is about 6"1 and 180, eats hotdogs, hamburgers, fries, onion rings, brownies, pound cakes and anything else filled with sugar or fried. Then he will get stressed out and not eat and end up losing 5 pounds instantly. Kills me.0
-
Yep! Totally unfair! Drinks soda like it's going out of style and plays video games all day. Biggest pet peeve is the fact that when he just stops drinking the soda he drops like 10-15lbs so not fair! I stop drinking soda almost completely and nothing happens! Grr.0
-
Thankfully, no. He has a bit of an obsessive personality, therefore all he eats is healthy because he is obsessed with it (and the occasional splurge if we find ourselves at a buffet style restaurant, he can't seem to help himself with those, lol). The only difference he does eat A LOT of food, even if it is healthy, so that can be difficult sometimes.0
-
Yeah and his favourite food is Potato! Dinner can be a nightmare sometimes :-D0
-
mine....and he's thin, has no problem with anything. He goes to the doctor and all his blood work is low & perfect!!
I'm happy for him....but jealous!!0 -

Same I'm much better will power now! But sometimes it's so hard... he'll be like "want a chip?" and we all know you can't just have one! hahaha xD At least he's proud of me too for losing some weight lol 0 -
Oh yeah. My hubby can drink regular soft drinks and energy drinks all day long, eat whatever he wants, and sits around on his butt all day. He swears he doesn't need to eat healthy, even though my cooking put 20 pounds on him during my pregnancy. Of course, I put on about 50 pounds because of my gestational diabetes and being on light duty the entire pregnancy. But since I do all the cooking, he's eating healthier about 50% of the time at least now.0
