I've started a low carbs and no sugar diet today. I've managed to get to this time with out caving. Which is good as I've an issue with chocolate and for the past two months I've had it for breakfast!

I'm heavier now than when I gave birth a year ago and dh need to lose weight as well , infact more than me, but I really hate my body at the moment.

I notice the time and remarked how well I'd done, dd (18) said well done .

Dh then went in to the kitchen and brought in the fucking barrel of haribio and stated laughing when he came back in!

Dd said "oh I'll have a packet " so he threw her some.

I said " don't do that, I'm trying really hard"

Dh replied " remember when I was trying to diet and you asked me to bring you a KFC home?"

It was two fucking years ago!

I've stormed off to bed, shouting they were both out of order . Honestly I'm brimming back tears - it's pathetic I know but I can really feel bad sugar cravings and head aches. There is a jar of Nutella down stairs, which I could just take a spoon to.

I heard dh saying to dd " she needs help her! "

I know IBU but it fucking sucks!!!

I don't understand why that make you cry tbh.

It is just some Haribos. Just because you are dieting doesn't they have to.

Plus you did KFC him...

Sirzy · 03/01/2014 21:50

Well done for staying in control, but you can't expect other people to not eat just because you are trying to lose weight

ExitPursuedByABear · 03/01/2014 21:50

Hope you have a better day tomorrow. You need to rise above the others. Try smug.

Joysmum · 03/01/2014 21:51

I used to get angry too, used to think they ought to want things as easy as possible for me. It was only when I changed my opinion and got used to the idea it had to be me and that I was paying the price of past problems that I actually accepted and settled in to my new life.

I lost my weight, went from a size 22 to a size 8. I still struggle now at times but that's my problem. I will go in the bath if I need to wait out the demons.

Cold, I've been doing the 5 2 for a year and on the fasting days, I tend to have a verrry early bedtime. No sense in staying up late feeling you could gnaw the leg off a panda. Grin

yarn33 · 03/01/2014 21:54

Seems rather hypocritical of you if you essentially did the same thing to him, just because it was a couple of years ago doesn't mean it no longer counts.

Besides if you want any diet to work long term you need to learn to be able to watch others eat food without needing to eat yourself, you have to get used to it sometime.

PumpkinPositive · 03/01/2014 21:55

It is just some Haribos.

I don't know. I heard tell of someone who surrendered 20 years of vegetarianism to go back on the fearsome Haribo...

DoYouNeedAWahhmbulance · 03/01/2014 21:56

YABU to expect them not to have things because you are choosing not to

Coldleftoversforme · 03/01/2014 21:57

Regarding the crying- I'm over it. I think it was because I'd been fending off sugar demons and dh went and brought it in and I crumbled.

The rational side if me us creeping back in, I know I can't expect them to diet too Blush

pump what's that???

Cold, it's a fasting diet. Five days of normal (within reason) eating and 2 days of a max 500 calories per day (600 for men). Fast days should not be consecutive. It was the diet of 2013 and actually worked for me, although my head was absolutely splitting for the first few weeks.

SPsWantsCliffInHerStocking · 03/01/2014 22:02

Pumpkin Is that healthy? Genuine question. Wouldn't your body crash out?

Iwilltrythisnamefornow · 03/01/2014 22:04

YABU. Haribos are minging and not worth crying over. But then so is KFC so your husband shouldn't be harping on about that either.

Coldleftoversforme · 03/01/2014 22:06

pump did you lose noticeable weight?
