Yes. Mine started throwing tofu in stuff. BLAH!! I no longer get tofu. The soy/protein based stuff is pretty good but doesn't replace real flesh.
On the other hand your wife has a medical issue where stuff you like might be bad for her health. I would say a compromise would be in order. Keep in mind that it will probably be hard for her to eat grass while you chomp down on flesh. I am not saying give it all up but a little consideration might not hurt. |

No, I never pulled that on my hubby. We had to change his diet after back surgery, and I went along with it. I couldn't see eating something in front of him that he couldn't. We changed our diet to an oriental diet and both of us have lost weight, and feel better for it. He eats bran cereal in the morning for breakfast I can't bring myself to eat it. We do give in to our cravings once a week. I like it since it is a lot of veggies and
seafood. Good luck. Hopefully you can find a compromise. |

My mother used to do that ... drove me and my siblings nuts when we were growing up. 1% milk is crap. It's basically blue-tinted white water. The other stuff is just a really bad memory ... this was when low-fat/fat-free absolutely meant TASTES LIKE SHIT.
My gf on the other hand, bless her, she'll cook me whatever I feel like eating, even if she doesn't like to eat it herself. |

My wife is already thin and eats like a bird.
She feeds me whatever I want. We got married I weighed 175 lbs. Then shot up to 220. Now at 190. She snacks on diet yogurt shit and eats a lot of rice. She harps on the spicy food I eat since it is so hot. But that's it when it comes to food. |

My buddy cured his wife of that crap. She tried to pass something off on him at dinner. He didn't say a word, just got up with his plate, went to the trash can and dumped it in, plate and all. Went out and returned with a big bucket of KFC, even offered to share with her.
BTW, his wife is a very nice lady and more than smart enough to not repeat past errors.More than 30 years so far, they must mostly get along real fine! Don in Ohio |

Second, I cannot conceive of how anything this simple (and easily corrected) could lead to divorce unless you were on your way anyhow. Seriously, is your marriage really this tenuous? |

I don't have a wife, but my mom DID the old switcheroo on us kids when we were younger. She pulled the stickers off the milk jugs and slowly worked us down from 2% to 1% to skim. Now I can't stand that filmy 2% crap!
Then my dad had VERY bad cholesterol levels, and had to lower them FAST. THUS the WHOLE FAMILY was then subject to the diet. Dad said, "If I gotta eat this healthy diet crap, then EVERYONE does since I PAY FOR IT." Measuring out our "Serving Sizes" of Fat Free pretzels & other snacks became a regular habit. We ALWAYS cheated when it came to measuring out cereal & stuff. Ooops I spilled WAY too much sugar in my nasty plain double-serving cheerios. Then I got so used to cheating on the diet, I sort of never did it since I was 15. To this day I do all of my laundry the same way, JUST GUESSING PROPORTIONS. Hmmm... I think this clothes washer can fit more... I forget, when pouring detergent should I put in two "Glugs" of the bottle, or 3 "Glugs". Better go with three. Last weekend my mom pointed out how upset she was that the clothes washer was overflowing with foamy soap. My dad was rolling on the floor. Especially when I told him that I was a Yo-Yo child (then I had to explain it to him)... [rolleyes] I forgot what REAL HOME FRIED CHICKEN tastes like. My body got so used to that healthy food that when I asked my mom to cook fried chicken the "old way" for my birthday, I spent the rest of the evening in the bathroom. My body can't take that stuff anymore. One thing that was REALLY GOOD was a PITTSBURG RARE STEAK that I had eaten about a week ago! YUMMY!!! -inuhbad |

I like "real" food too, but... If your wife is doing something to keep her self in shape, that's a good thing in my opinion. My wife likes that "body for life" diet, and I go along with it because 1) I get to eat stuff like eggs, hamburger, chicken, etc. 2) she does almost all the cookin and 3) it makes her feel better about herself, which makes it easier for me to buy guns and ammo. She's 36 now, and I want to keep her as good looking as I can, for as long as I can, because I like sending rounds down range in the bedroom too!

She hasn't yet, but after she gets home from the hospital she will.
She has been having chest pains for the past 2 weeks or so, so she went to the Dr. She went in for a stress test and after being on the tread mill for less than 5 minutes they had her stop. Today she went in for a heart cath, everything looked ok but they wanted to have her stay the night. I guess it was a wake up call to both of us to start eating better and to do that awful thing called exercise. |

I'd have her buy 1/2 gal of 1% and 1/2 gal of 2% and quit your whining. She can only buy one box of cereal?
My mom started to buy 1% instead of whole milk when I was a kid. I hated it and refused to drink it. She started refilling the "whole milk" jugs with the 1% crap. I could tell the difference and just stop drinking milk. |

This is a normal part of marriage. I'm sure she's made or will make sacrifics for you. Shok Well to clarify a few things: 1. I am the only one who drinks milk. She rarely drinks skim and hates milk (all kinds). So my drinking evil 2% isn't tempting her or sabotaging her diet. 2. What the doc told her is that cookies, cake and candy are NOT 3 of the 4 food groups. I don't eat cookies, cake and candy...she does. So again I am not the temptation factor or undermining her health. What this is about is this: SHE has to change her eating habits not me. If she ate the things I ate, she would be fine. BUT because SHE has to sacrifice she thinks I do too and THAT is what I object to. It is like someone who is trying to quit smoking and they tell you you can't have your daily beer anymore because it is not healthy. She thinks if I start drinking 1% milk somehow by osmosis she will be able to keep eating shit. And this is also part of misery loves company. I'm not about to give up pizza for salad because she is no longer aloud to eat pop tarts. |

My wife made some gasslie substance one night. When I asked what it was she said "Hamburger Helper".
I explained to her that the only thing that helps hamburger is: 1)Form it into a round shape commonly called a "pattie". 2)Cook said "pattie" on grill or in a skillet until no more pink inside. 3)Place said "pattie" or "patties" on round slices of bread called "buns". 4)Add ketchup, mustard, mayo, and anything else as long as it doesn't say "Hamburger Helper". 5)Placing cheese on "pattie" to melt is optional".

Well 3 years ago, my wife found out she was diabetic. It runs in her family. So the doc sends us both to the ADA "eating school" at the local hospital. By strictly paying attention to her diet, she has stayed off of medication & insulin so far. None of that "diabetic food" either. Subsiquently, my diet changed. It was a tough adaptation at first but I feel alot better for it. About 6 months ago, I apply for life insurance. They won't insure me because of my high blood pressure. Runs on my side of the family 140/96, not extreme. Now, no salt, no caffeine, no tobacco etc. Have to check sodium levels on everything that I eat. I take one BP pill a day. Neither of us are over weight, we both exercise pretty regularly, I do weights, she does aerobics. Don't know how old your are Steyer, but when you hit your mid to late 30's stuff starts to happen and a little preventative maintenance can keep you going alot longer. So try a little compromise on the diet thing, when the wife peaks at 40, you better be in shape for submarine races and something other than your back better be stiff.

That "Low-Fat No-Fat" stuff is a crock of shit. The body produces 75% to 80% of your cholesterol IN YOUR LIVER! That means that if you cut out ALL fat in your diet, you still would only lower your cholesterol count by 20%MAX! The liver is incited to produce cholesterol by insulin that is produced in response to SUGAR, and all breads, rice, grains, potatos, ie starch is turned straight to sugar immediately upon ingestion, thus raising your cholesterol. I'm not saying cut out all starches, just go easy on them and enjoy good healthy fats. Get a copy of "Protein Power" by Michael Eades, MD and it explains it all. This is not the Atkins diet! But the book also explains how the so-called "Food Pyramid" has been foisted upon sheeple as one of the biggest lies ever fabricated by the politically correct. We are PREDATORS and predators EAT PREY.
I am 41 years old and have been following this book for the past 7 months. I'm 6'01" and weigh 180 lbs. I just got done with my annual department physical including treadmill test. I ran their treadmill into the ground and my overall cholesterol was 170 TOTAL and of that number 51 was my GOOD cholesterol making my BAD cholesterol less than 120! I eat red meat like a vampire, drink whole milk, and I love it. I did NOT claw my way to the top of the food-chain to be a vegetarian. Get the book "Protein Power" by Michael Eades, MD. It explains how the politically-correct DU's are killing us all with this low-fat crap while trying to force their misplaced morality on us! |

Also probably plays hell with her blood pressure, etc. And again, I'm not eating that crap in front of her. I'm not a cookie, cake and candy junkie. But this girl would put pancake syrup on Pop Tarts if the idea occured to her. Just watching her eat makes my teeth hurt. |
