Silly Husband

My husband is completely nutritional ignorant! He wouldn't know a protein from a simple sugar if it smaked him in the face! You would think after being married to an obsessive compulsive dieter he would finally be able to read a nutritional label...but Oh No! I just have so much trouble understanding how someone can eat anything and just stay the same weight for 25+ years. He weighs the same as he did out of high school...go figure! He is supportive of me simply because I look better but he really doesnt get it! I will never understand people who don't spend hours on end reading nutritional labels and calculating calories grams and serving sizes!! Jen 243/181/140

That's funny, Jen, I feel the same way. Aaron, bless his heart, is clueless. I don't send him to the store alone anymore to pick stuff up for me because no-matter how explicit I am, he NEVER knows what to get, and then he stresses. In a way, that's good, because now we shop together. I get a lot of "Can you eat this or that?" and I always tell him, "I can eat whatever I WANT, but I choose not to because..." It's funny how our compulsion about what we put in our mouth never really goes away, just manifests itself differently.
