I Am Being Sabotaged

Sometimes I think my husband is trying to sabotage my weight loss adventure. He knows I like eating butterscotch pudding and what does he come home with today a 12 pack of butterscotch pudding. I am the only one in my family who likes to eat butterscotch pudding. Now when I mention this to him he always says well I got it in case you wanted something sweet. Well I do not think I became over weight because I have a habit of craving veggies.

I try to explain to him that he is basically setting me up for failure. Every day when I go to the fridge for some cold water I get stared down by butterscotch pudding. This is like a couple times a day temptation. So far so good I have fought off the pudding temptation but he really is making it hard. He keeps telling me that it is low fat so that should make it all ok. Is he kidding me? I should just throw them away but he will just buy more and it is a constant reminder to me that I need to show myself that I can resist the temptation.

So far this I have cut out sodas, candy, fried foods (which I never really eat anyways), chips and puddings. Now I do love my mocha lattes but instead of ordering a large I have switched to a small (cuts calories by about ½) I did try the non-fat version but it tasted like chocolate flavored water to me so I threw it away. Now in the past I have tried to just cut everything out at once and I failed so this time I am trying to cut things out a little at a time so maybe my body won’t go into craving mode.

Hubby just came home and what does he have in his hands a root beer and reeces peanut butter cups. Come on REALLY! Time for another heart to heart.

About Tammy Woolard

My name is Tammy and I am 40 year old mother of 3 wonderful children who came to us through domestic adoption. Although we did not have any fertility issues we chose adoption because there are so many kids that did not ask to be born but truly want a family to love. We did research on adoption choices and decided on domestic adoption through CPS. You would be surprised the differences between each agency. The adoption process is nothing like you see in the movies. I am also a 5 year breast cancer survivor. When I was diagnosed my kids were 3, 5 and 7 I did so much research I may have driven my Dr. a little crazy but that is ok it is my body not his.
