About 18 months ago I lost 8kg and I did a good job of keeping it off until my city went into lockdown and then all my partner did was cook big dinners and bake cakes.
I’ve put on 11kg. I joined an 8 week challenge run by the PT that helped me lose the 8kg in the first place. And I was really excited to be given a diet and gym plan and the diet was quite similar to what I ate the first time I lost weight.
But my partner is just not supportive whatsoever. He says that he wants to eat what I will eat while following this diet but then he will suggest changes to make dishes more tasty but thi par changes will add calories which is what I’m trying to avoid. Or he will order take away food or say we should go out for dinner and then I can’t help myself and I just go with him. I feel like he doesn’t realise how hard it is to stick to the diet.
The funny thing is last time I lost the 8kg, I was living at home with my parents. So I didn’t have the constant temptation from him to eat things other than what’s on my diet. This time, we’re living together and the temptation is constant.
How can I get him to see that this is really important to me and I really want to stick to this diet. I’m not trying to entirely blame him for my not sticking to the diet but I want him to be a little more supportive and not provide me with that temptation.
