Default Re: Glad to be here!

I love my husband dearly too and he has always been able to eat anything he wants while I have constantly had to watch everything I even look at!!! Well, we have been married 36 years and about the last five, my wonderful darling has had a metabolism slow down. Now this is a man who considers french fries a vegetable and therefore insists that he is eating his vegetables. Well it is really hard to get him to eat decent. The pounds are starting to creep up on him. For the first time in his life he is having to consider "watching" what he eats. It cracks me up...he had me put him on a fruit only for breakfast diet. He did great the first two weeks and then I started noticing that he would sneak the fruit back into the frig and opt for his usual breakfast burrito instead. What's a wife to do???..anyway, it is ironic that now he has joined the millions of us who have to be conscious about their weight...it's just such a crack-up for me. I'm hoping to reach my goal of 30 lbs lost and hope he'll follow suit! I want him around with me for a long time!
