[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Are you talking about it constantly? "Oh, I'd love to eat that but I can't because of x diet" etc? If so, tone it done as it's probably annoying. 
Autoimmune diseases, like all chronic diseases, suck. I have one, my sister has one, my mother has about 5 and she has reached the stage of being quite sick on a periodic basis. But there is still a limit to how much anyone wants to hear the same things over and over.

If you aren't talking about it constantly, then tell him you'd like him to keep his comments to himself. If this is something you're doing for you, and doesn't require his involvement, then do you really need his support anyway? I mean what would that look like, so long as he isn't interfering or buying food he knows you can't resist and that aren't on the diet? Tell him this is how you're eating and if he doesn't like it, he doesn't have to talk about it.

I am not talking about it. He keeps bringing it up, though.  It will be things like "Mmmm this ice cream is delicious. Too bad you can't have any because of your new diet.", or "I can't wait until you stop with this stupid diet and go back to eating normal food." I'm not making it a problem for him by talking about it all the time. I just go about my business eating the food I can eat. It's not actually all that different than what I had been eating before---but I've cut a few things out and have added in some new foods. It's not like I made a 180 in terms of what I eat. -OP [/quote]

He sounds like a d OP and I'd tell him that. [/quote]
