Why is it I go great for couple days and then when weekend comes and hubby home I go backwards. I seem to go ok during the week because I'm busy at school and running errands. Am I the only one have hard time sticking to diets when there SO or DH home?

This used to be the case, but really decisions are really up to the individual. My husband is kind and will offer to get me some of whatever he is having. I can say no or ask for an alternative and he will gladly get that for me instead. My husband does all the cooking at my house and he likes some high fat things, but he always makes plenty of vegetables and buys plenty of fruit so it really is up to me what I put on my plate.

If it's exercise that's the issue, invite him for a walk or a hike at a local park or bowling. Lots of ways to give yourself movement and be together.

Hope this helps.

I have a similar problem. I don't think for me it's dh per se, it's rather being home LOL. On the weekdays, everything is organized, I'm not home and there is no kitchen. On the weekends, it's the whole winding down mood, everything is relaxed including my willpower.


Also, I think many of our events and "bonding" is around food. We never get to eat together during weekdays, and on the weekend, it's a feast LOL.


But then again,

DH is much more quick to rationalize than I am.
