I actually am with her about 15 hours a day most days, if not more... so I can pretty much guarantee that's her regular diet. She mostly spends a lot of time in bed and only ever drives places. I refuse to drive anywhere within walking distance, I do most of the house work and I go to the gym 3/4 times a week. I'm also a…

Hehe thanks for the support :) Perhaps I was being a little dramatic... I'm definitely not starving myself... but oh how I wish I could eat that amount of food and not put on weight. I think I'm better to look at it from a health perspective... if one of us is going to get heart disease later in life, it probably won't be…

Glad to hear someone is in a similar position! I do think it must be a combination of psychological and physiological factors as you suggest. I remember just a few months ago polishing off a whole pizza, a six pack of beer and maybe a dessert no worries. The other day I ordered a pizza and could only manage two slices. I…

I wouldn't say I gained weight by overeating, I'd say the move from waiting tables to a desk job and not adjusting my intake accordingly was the issue there! This aversion to food has only been happening for 4ish days, so it's very unlikely to be anything permanent. It's just very unlike me, especially because I want to…

Hahaha. This is a very good point. For the amount of cruciferous vegetables and beans I eat, I don't think it would be possible for me to not fart in front of him in the four years we've been together. I take no responsibility for the digestive side effects that he is so often subjected to.

Thanks for your support everyone, it's nice to know that others have been in a similar situation. Perhaps bland wasn't the right word, I really should have said rich. I love to cook and I'm pretty well equipped with delicious and healthy Asian and Middle Eastern recipes, it's just when I really feel like something stodgy…

I like this idea. I'm going to try this as I often eat hard-boiled eggs, so this is combining the best of both worlds. :) I find carb-y snacks less satisfying so I end up eating a zillion corn chips so this is a really good alternative. Thank!

Thanks for your help guys. You've reassured me that I'm doing the right thing. There's just so much differing information out there, but the main thing is I'm not feeling overly hungry between meals. My problem in the past has been an inability to know when I'm full, so I've always eaten until I'm stuffed. Now that I'm…
