Help…People Keep Asking Me If I Want Bread, Sweets

Friday, March 20th, 2009

I know family wants to be supportive and they think that in order to do so, you must eat, eat, eat! I told hubby I am on Atkins and that the foods I am not allowed to have on induction or in general. I asked him if he bought cookies, please stash them somewhere out of sight. He has a sweet tooth. He jokingly said he should not have to suffer because of my diet. I get that. He also keeps casually offering me bread, fries, things that are sweet…So I don’t think this is sabotage, I think he just does not realize how important this is to me. I mentioned to my sister I was on Atkins and she said you need to eat, without even knowing what or how much I am eating LOL. The more I say no, the more they persist. I love hubby and we get along great. I feel full and happier with my diet and myself since I started induction last Thursday. Any suggestions on how to get family and co-workers to see in a nice way that you don’t want it without coming off as rude?
