I dont usually live with my partner of 18 months but we decided to lock down together so we have been living together for the past however many weeks. (I have known him for years it wasnt a case of moving a stranger in with the kids).
During the first 12 months of our relationship I gained just over 2 stone. It was a mix of socialising more in the pub, then getting take away when hung over and the fact that he snacks a lot so I was joining in.
Anyway since January I have worked really hard and lost the stone and an extra half going from 11st 3lbs to 8st 10lbs. Mostly it was through exercise and the gym but being careful what I ate too.
Well since he has moved in I have gained 3lbs, I know its not a huge amount but I was losing every week before hand and now this 3lb I just can't budge.
I work out and he will say oh you're a fitness freak, have a day off. He won't come on walks with me and DS but then I feel guilty just abandoning him.
I do all of the cooking, I am much better at it than him and make tasty meals and make more for him and extra sides so he's not hungry but we will end up snacking in bed still.
If I ever say what shall we have for dinner he says chippy or takeaway. So i wnd up having it too. I dont have the strength to sit there with a salad whilst every one eats papa johns.
He always encourages me to just have a gin whilst he has a drink, I mostly decline to be honest but I don't drink at home at all when he's not there.
If I say anything about not losing weight he says - well Its not ny fault, I dont force you to eat it.
And he's right, he doesn't force me too at all but if he wasn't there neither would the unhealthy food be there and I would be lovely and slim.
If I suggest he might want to jon me in a diet (he is 14st 8lb and 5ft 9ish) he just says ohhhh lost a bit of weight have you, are you calling me a fatty.
So basically how have you managed to stay focused and eat healthily if you have an unhealthy partner.
