My husband is going to rebel!



Recommended Posts

Last night we watched a movie and my hubby said " anything good to eat in this house?" I got up and got him a snack brown rice chips. 20 chips for 80 calories. only 1 gm of Protein and too much sodium. But it is better then lays chips by far.

I have been getting him lentil chips and hummas chips etc. He told me last night that if he eats one more healthy snack he is going to rebel. Not totally healthy I said. There is a lot of salt in them. And no taste he added. I asked him to please eat better. Your getting older and health becomes an issue even for you skinny guys.

He replied that he has eaten enough legumes and seeds to last him a life time..Laughing I told him that is because they are better for you then beef.

He ate them but he was not happy. I told him he will get used to them...He said fine!!!!! I won't complain much!

He is such a hoot!!!! LOL

the salt in Snacks is horrific. have you ever tried roasting chickpeas and seasoning them yourself? i used to make those for my kids. not sure if your husband would go for it though, lol.

I know they have a lot of salt. I am trying to win him over slowly by starting this way...I love chickpeas. LOL It's not about me it is about him. He loves salt and oil and bad stuff. I at least give him lentils...It's a start but he is not taking it well..

You know those guys who miss a meal and loses 10 lbs. That is my hubby!!! :(

I am SLOWLY proceeding in the husband arena too. My DH has some serious weight to lose, and as I lose more I hear him complaining more and more about his own weight. His eating is out of control, much as mine once was. Serving size is my major challenge with him. A box of triscuits, Snacks for the kiddos, everything is gone in 1 day.

      I have my final approval from my insurance, only thing holding up things is one last x-ray needed, which I have scheduled for the fourth of next month, which is my birthday.

      Hi, I’m new here. I’m currently on the liver shrinking diet. So far so good, but I have to say I haven’t found a protein shake I like. Anyone have any suggestions please? My surgery date is September 17th.

        Fairlife Core are by far the best. They taste just as they are - chocolate milk. You can either get the 26 grams or the 42 grams (harder to find and more expensive). For straight protein look at Bulksuppliments.com ..they have really good whey proteins and offer auto ship plus they test for purity. No taste or smell...

      2. BlondePatriotInCDA

        Fairlife has strawberry, vanilla and of course chocolate. No more calories than other protein drinks. Stay away from Premiere, they're dealing with lawsuits due to not being honest about protein content.
