My husband is going to rebel!

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

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.
