Today was dh's first day ...
Today was dh's first day off in a month. He spent two hours cooking a meal for tonight. I just woke up from a nap to find that I can't eat the meal!!!!!!!!! And I'm very MAD about it.
He made corn muffins from a mix that he didn't bother to even read the package!!! Of course, there it too much sugar in them. I'm so sick and tired of having to fight for every freakin' meal!!!!!!!! Every time he wants to go out to eat, every time he wants to cook!! He always wants to make crap that I can't have. It's so hard not to think that he's doing it on purpose!
To make the whole thing worse, he came to me and said, "you can't eat it, why not??" DUH - this is not new anymore. It's been almost five months!!!!
So now, they all are enjoying the nice meal and I'm sitting at the computer trying very hard NOT to cry!!!

Awww... Laurie, I'm sorry. I'm sure you're really frustrated with him. What else did he make -isn't there anything you can eat?
Sometimes the people we love just need a good ker-thunk on the head. Try to wait until you're less likely to cry and yell, maybe later tonight, and explain your frustration to him. More than likely he has no idea - just thought he was being helpful.
Hugs,

You're right... he has no idea. I've tried to tell him over and over what I can and can't eat. He's been with me in the grocery store while I read label after label. He knows my sugar limit. He just didn't bother to read the label and see if I could have it. (hence, the reason I shop and only buy things I can eat!!!)
He's sorry, and he wants to cook something else for me, but I asked him not to. I'm just heating up a sweedish meatball frozen dinner for myself instead. It's just too much work with him doing it - that's why I always do it myself!!
I should have NOT taken the nap and did the cooking. Guess, I've learned my lessson.
Aww Laurie, I am sorry that you feel this way but I can empathize. Tonight my DH wanted breakfast for dinner. Bacon, sausage, Fried Balogna, gravy, grits, hashbrowns, eggs, biscuits, fruit and about 40 pounds of fat. Just the smell of it all cooking was enough to make me 
(And I did just from the smell) To say the least I did not eat but I did sit at the table with them while they ate. I will eat a protein bar in a little while and that will be my dinner. There is no way I could have done all that grease.
My hubby tries to understand but he is clueless most of the time. That is why I normally do the cooking. Some times I feel it is easier to do it myself than to try to explain it to him again.
Don't cry, go find you something to eat and go on with life. It is one meal. There will be millions of others now.

Sorry Laurie {{{HUGS}}}
I know what you mean by trying hard not to cry. You dont want to give him the satisaction of knowing that he hurt you.... Men just dont get it... If it was reverse and you cooked something he couldnt eat, I'm sure he would have commented, or at least my DH would.... I would tell him how you feel and tell him that he is hurting you by not listening to you. I make my own food because I was sick of explaining things that I can and cant have.... Hope you cheer up!
