I have been married to this guy for over 30 years. He used to love to bring me any type of chocolate if I "needed" it: peanut M & M's, Hershey bars with almonds, and he was always very willing to make a run to buy more if the moon was right. I guess in a way he was an enabler, but I would never hold that against him. I never said "no" to the chocolate either! He lost his own 60 pounds this past year. He asked me for help, so I provided it. You see, I knew I could not do it for him. He could only do it when he was ready, so I waited. Until January. That was when he found out his blood glucose levels were a bit high, and that was that. Now, he's totally on board with me whenever we make meals together, go grocery shopping, or are eating out.
It was really cool in Target. And it was even more wonderful when we got home, unpacked and realized there were no voices calling to us from any of those bags of candies!
And that's why I only buy Reese's peanut butter cups for Halloween. No one in our family likes them!
ReplyDeleteWay to go! You already know how much this helps. If it isn't in your house, it's hard to lose control over it!
