Both OH and I are carrying a little bit too much weight around the middle. DH has borderline blood sugars that will nudge him into type 2 diabetes before too long. We both agreed that we should do the usual-eat less, exercise more etc. I have made meal plans that will accommodate our new healthy lifestyle. Definitely five a day, lean meats, caution around sugar and salt. I buy a minimal amount of snack type food as DH can not do without a snack sometimes. We do shopping on line in an effort to keep out of the supermarket.
So far, so good.
As far as meals are concerned, we eat well and we should be loosing weight.
But, since lock down DH will rummage around the cupboards in the evening for snacks. The snacks I have ordered disappear within a day or two. So then he will eat toast, cheese, cereal, anything he can get his hands on. Yesterday he went into the shop and bought crisps and biscuits-because, he says, I never order snacks for him on line. Problem is, no matter how many snacks there are, he will eat them pronto
I despair. He will crunch his way through whatever snack in the house then moan and grumble cos the weight isn't going down. Worse, I sometimes find myself snacking too.
Any suggestions on how to resolve this would be welcome, but I dont think he will agree to me stitching his lips together!
