Sitting in a room full of McDonalds

Yeah I have. My bf is usually good about it but in this moment we were driving in a rush. Yesterday we went to a Restaurant while on vacation and I could only have the broth of the Soup and my stepson was teasing me saying "aren't you jealous of my chicken tenders? They are so juicy and delicious". My boyfriend' date=' his dad, scolded him and I told him that wasn't nice and he stopped. My boyfriend was with me at every meeting with the surgeon and takes the rules seriously. He scolded me for chewing bubble gum because of the sugar. He reminds me of the doctors orders when I want to cheat. I just wish he ate better too. This man eats fast food 2x a day. I always offer to cook but he likes bad food. How can I judge if I am fat? Idk but this will be a battle. I hope he gets healthy soon [/quote']

Mines the same!! He loves take away and soft drinks. He says he will be much healthier after my surgery but I don't know if he will stick to that. I am going to do heaps more healthy home cooked meals so that should help. I'm out of surgery now so I guess I'll find out soon if he's going to change lol.

Your bf sounds very supportive apart from the bad eating. I'm glad he scolded his son... That is mean!!!

Good luck to us both I guess. Lol. Maybe we can be their motivation to eat at home more. My boyfriend has been amazing and his son has taken care of me too. I am a lucky girl in this house of boys. Good luck on your journey BethXXX!

My husband cooked his own food for several weeks. Even does the shopping.

Look up some of the long list of ingredients that are in a lot of those McDonald's food items and you might quickly lose your appetite for that garbage. That is just about the lowest level of consumable food products that you can get. Its really pretty gross, actually.

I do on occasion get coffee their (plain) or yogurt parfait, and have even tried their oatmeal. As far as the other stuff goes, I haven't been interested since way back in college in the early 1990s. Its crap.

It is good discipline, but I have badgered my daughter so much about fast food, that she doesn't partake very often - may be once or twice a month. When she says she is headed that way I can usually entice her to stay and have a home cooked meal instead. More work for me, but better for her. My husband i no problem. He has always HATED that crap. Says it tastes like chemicals and salt laden sawdust with a side of plastic.

I posted the ingredients for just the bun on another thread and most of it was non-food items. Yeah, once in a while is not going to kill you, but why subject yourself to it? To each his own - different strokes and all that.
