So my husband is in the military and he's been gone for the past 4 months! He finally comes back tomorrow and i'm making him his favorite for dinner so yes this will be my first "free day" to indulge since he's left. Now im contemplating making him his favorite dessert (which is pumpkin pie), but i don't know if i should make it since im already making an indulgent meal and i know i will want a piece if i make it. He is actually going to join me on my "healthier lifestyle" , so should i make him his fave dessert, since i wont be making any desserts any time soon? sorry for the rant lol, so what do you guys think?

    You can celebrate with pie when you get your husband home after 4 months! You have my permission.

    I say go for it! You haven't seen him in months so it's a celebration! If you feel you need to, then do some extra exercise during the day so you don't go too far over.

    I'm thinking his favorite dessert will NOT be pumpkin pie. ;-)

    im pretty sure you are supposed to be dessert and that sex should be your biggest priority at this point. I mean, just make him a ridiculously awesome american sandwich afterwards

    Just make a new healthier dessert. You don't need food to celebrate every moment in life.

    Do it or the terrorists have won! j/k. Yes, definitely do it. You both have been through hell and back with him being overseas. You deserve to celebrate in style. :) And thank you for your husband's service!

    Let the healthier lifestyle start tomorrow. It's not everyday that someone comes back from a 4 month military deployment.

    And get a couple gallons of gatorade to address that thirst issue that comes from being away for 4 months.

    Make it.

    You're going to burn it off later anyway :p

    Plus, one 500 calorie desert isn't going to derail your progress.
