:roll:My husband is making me crazy! He has decided that he wants to be a Vegan so no meat, no eggs, no yogurt, no oils, no butter, cream milk...ARG!
This is in response to my dad's heart attack and a movie that we saw about cardio health. He is worried about a heart attack--really?! So now Mr Skinny is only eating veggies and tofu and soy milk and rice. And, he doesnt want the Benecalorie any more. Oh but he is eating nuts--piles of them ground up. He ordered like 50 lbs of raw nuts (not peanut--he decided he is allergic to them out of the blue). I think they are clogging up his works too if you know what I mean. The worst is he thinks everyone should become a vegan and he is preaching the benefits to everyone. I asked him what his goal was and he said it could not hurt to be Vegan. I replied that it would make him lose weight and that is serious but he countered with the nuts will put on the weight! He wants me to give him about a cup of them a day!
I really don't know how I am going to keep any weight on him. I am mad because I really felt that I had gotten his weight loss undercontrol with the benecalorie and lots of high cal and high fat foods and had gotten him off daily enemas with Miralax. And now meal prep is taking longer because he wants everything prepared special. he has also decided to come inthe kitchen and watch me cook so I don't slip him anything non vegan and tell me how to do everything. I am his sole caregiver and work full time and have kids living at home -- I don't need this extra crap!:x
Just one more thing to make me feel like his personal slave....
