I just don’t get it

Posted by: Kathy on: February 14, 2008

My husband is wanting to lose weight. Great! I’ll make healthy stuff for you to eat. Nope. He wants to eat the same stuff, just less of it. Okay, that’ll work–I’ll dish out less for you. So he gets seconds, or he starts snacking an hour later. Fine, so I’ll pack you healthy stuff for [...]
