I'm kind of disgusted by what Robin eats. I mentally calculate the calories. He killed a gallon of ice cream in 2 days, and when I said something about it he called me a nag. Last night, he ate 2 bananas and a granola bar before dinner, what was probably 3 servings of pasta during dinner, and then about 2 hours later he had grapes and a HUGE cup of Cheerios. And he fussed because we were out of ice cream! He does stuff like this all of the time, and it's driving me insane. Not only do I buy the groceries (and maybe I wanted some f-ing ice cream!), but I also worry that he's going to be obese and diabetic by the time we're 50. But I can't even say anything to him about it. Grrr.

That's how I felt about Chris before he started WW with me... he would just eat and eat and eat, without regard to what he was putting into his system, and I finally had to pull the "think about Sami" card for him to stop and realize what he was doing, go to the doctor, and open his eyes.  Now we actually share the food, rather than it being a first come first serve free-for-all!

DD, you are not alone. Glen eats whatever he wants and it's 90% junk. Last night for dinner he suggested hot dogs & mac&cheese or burger king. Ugh! He's also gained about 25 pounds since we net which doesn't seem like a lot but he was a bit overweight to begin with (and he's only 5'6"). It doesn't bother me, I'm still attracted to him but it's extremely unhealthy and I'm not going to lie, if he lost that weight I'd probably be much more attracted to him.

Jamie eats like crap all the time too.

I try to change his eating habits, but he refuses to try anything new.

And the thing that p!sses me off is that no matter what he eats, he loses weight. AND he skips the gym. All while I watch what I eat and exercise 4 times a week minimum. It's frustrating.

Wow, this could have been me talking.  I think my primary concern is his longterm health, like, hello, I want you to be around to experience our kids lives!  We both just got bloodwork done for new life insurance policies, and his cholesterol and some other numbers are horrible.  We are recently ttc, and I keep nudging him to go get a physical because he hasn't had one since I've known him.  And, yeah,  I would be lying if I said that the physical attraction piece has not affected me at all....
