Hi firstly you have to get your husband on your side, i know it's hard my husband was the same and it's still hard for him. Good luck 👍

a few ideas...

1. write a list of reasons to lose weight and really describe the awful things in detail, then stick a copy on your fridge and one in your purse- also your desk at work - and your car

2. stick a fat photo on the fridge

3. try on your slim clothes that you cant get into to motivate you

4. ask your husband for his support- and be specific- if he wants to eat junk ask him to do it away from you (just for a couple of weeks) you deserve respect

5. dont keep junk in the house

6. dont go into shops where you habitually buy junk

7. plan alternative snacks for the evening which are pre-planned and try to rope in hubby

8. do some exercise (even a brisk trot up the stairs will do) it seems to motivate us to start doing other things more healthily and gives us the happy endorphins ( i call them happy dolphins lol)

9. find or buy an outfit in the size you want to be and hang it in the bedroom so you can see it at all times.

10.plan, plan and plan but also accept that there will be times when you cant be bothered, or feel crap or something happens in life or the family, or you just stuff your face mindlessly with crappy food/plastic for no apparent reason, but no matter what happens as long as you pick yourself up and dust yourself off (and start from where you left-off) you havent failed- you just encountered a hurdle.

11. whatever happens just get back on the horse

Theres lots more but i dont want to bore the pants off you lol- i hope you find something in there to help : )

Hi Storm4mozza,

Maybe talk to your husband about it, and tell him how it makes you feel when he offers you that extra food outside of your plans - I think it could be vital to get him on board with your plans, rather than offering you extras. I know he probably does it because he wants to cheer you up, or whatever reason he has - but essentially he might not necessarily realise how important it is to you to keep on track with your plans, but if he understands, then he might actually help.

Hope that makes sense.

Hope you have a great weekend.

Husband is being very naughty, he knows what you are trying to do and he seems to want to prevent you from doing it? Sort him out Take control, it is your body after all!

Maybe ask him to give you some lovely healthy treats instead??
