Anyone trying to lose weight with a partner who is effortlessly slim?

And how fucking annoying is it 😭

I'm trying to lose weight after having our baby a year ago, I'm not massively overweight but definitely bigger than I've been before.

My husband on the other hand is just effortlessly fit & slim and always has been, he doesn't exercise any more than the next person or eat healthily he is just a slim build. He can scoff all sorts day in day out and never an ounce goes on him.

I'm finding it so hard to stick to a diet at the moment. If it were up to me id just not buy any junk from the shop so I couldn't be tempted but with DH he likes having it in so it's always in the cupboards and I have to sit at night watching him eat all the lovely things that I want whilst I eat bloody rice cakes or fruit 🤣

Anyone else got a partner who is like this?

Yes, highly annoying. I found low carb was easiest as we could have the same meals but DH hd potatoes/rice etc and I didn't.

DH is one of those irritating people who can eat one biscuit and then put the packet away Confused

Personally I'd opt for not buying the sodding biscuits at all as I'm no biscuits or the whole packet Blush

Yep, DH is 6 ft and under 11 St. I'm very much heavier so after 25 years, I'm finally accepting that I need to eat half what he can put away.
