What do u do when your husband is laying nect to u esting everything he can think of. (Juicy apples, cupcakes, candy)

I would put on a sappy romantic movie. That usually sent mine running to another room lol.

Gosh, I was going to ask if you were up for fooling around... but you seem busy.

Happens here every night......usually potato chips, pecan sandies, or Peanut Butter sandwiches. I just make sure that I am already full of my permitted foods so that I am not tempted. I keeped boiled eggs, tuna salad, cheeses, nuts, sometimes meatballs on hand so that I have a

"go to" available. The smell of the potato chips is the hardest to resist, but I do allright. Sometimes at bedtime I will have yogurt with berries or a cup of hot cocoa. That helps to fill me up.

Offer him something he want in return. It's not optimal, you want him to just do it for you, but doing it so you let him skip lunch at your parents, or have a golf outing with his friend, or whatever he wants within reason, might be the best way to show him how important it is to you. And then use positive reinforcement. He eats in the other room, you say thank you and be a sweetheart.

Just my 2 cents.

This is just a test. Resist and remember why you are doing this . Also buy healthier snacks you both can enjoy. Good luck!

it doesn't bother me when someone is eating something that is not the best for me. I don't know if it is because I am still almost only 3 months out and I feel I doing pretty good. I want to work this took that I have been given for all it is worth and get the best bang for my buck (well my insurances buck....lol) as long as I can.

I knew before I went into this that there would be plenty of times that things like this would happen. I told both my husband and my daughter that they could not worry about eating in front of me. I know in the beginning it was hard for both of them. But the changes that I am making have brought positive changes into the house also. My husband we always called the cookie monster, he loves Cookies. Now when we grocery shop he doesn't even pick them up, he says if it is not in the house I won't eat it. Now for one thing he does not have a weight problem, and second he does still get his sweet fix here and there. We as a family have made positive changes. It's funny but both my husband and daughter use the powders?utm_source=BariatricPal&utm_medium=Affiliate&utm_campaign=CommentLink" target="_ad" data-id="1" >unjury Protein to make shakes with on an almost daily basis. LOL I don't even use it anymore, my husband just had me reorder the vanilla and chocolate splendor.

I am only 2 weeks post surgery. I went into this knowing and accepting the reality that I will have to deal with other people getting to have the goodies. My husband would have no problem snacking in the other room. I would rather has his company. This is my choice to make these changes for me. I can deal with the smell... Actually the smell of anything greasy is gross. I even went out for Mexican food with my hubby and my son and his family. I took a big thermal mug of hot beef broth. I enjoyed the company and was proud of myself for not feeling deprived. Who knows, next week I may want to hurt someone for eating goodies in front of me. All I can do is take it one day at a time.

I drink my protein shake close to bed time so I am not so tempted by everything else. It is easier to not want it when your pouch is full!

I can hardly get in my fluid and 5-6 ounces of puree, so nothing tempts me so far.

Have you tried drinking hot or warm liquids? For the first couple of weeks hot decaf tea

Whoops! Didn't mean to send. Anyway, t, and broth were a lot easier to get down.

My mother, a very health-conscious 73 years-old, loves reminding my 74 years-old dad that he can keep on eating crap so long as the very hefty life ins policy is paid up. Lol but that's their sense of humor.

Maybe tell hubby you would like him to start eating healthier because you really do want to grow old with him?

I tell folks that too...to please don't refrain on my behalf. That's because I refuse to be THAT person who judges someone for eating something they enjoy. I grew up with a mother who did exactly that and it greatly contributed to the toxic relationship I had with food. I especially keep my mouth shut because I am the type to say "no one asked you!" and I so I give the same berth to everyone else.

I have cut way back on buying thAt crap. If he wants it he has to buy it.
