[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP, just out of curiosity, what explanation/defense would your husband have to his attitude about the diet and also about not wanting you to cut back at work for your health? Does he say he doesn't believe you're sick? Or does he think the diet is quackery and you need the money from working FT?

Either way he sounds like an ass. You deserve someone who has your back in sickness and in health![/quote]

I think he thinks it means less "fun" for him. Like now I can't just get Chipotle on a whim when we don't feel like cooking. I'm not saying HE can't have Chipotle--I make something for myself that I can eat. But maybe it's because I'm no longer indulging with him in that way. I don't think he'd articulate it in that way though, but knowing him that's probably a part of it. He's thinking more about how it impacts him negatively than how it may impact me positively.

The not cutting back at work thing is money driven. DH's income is variable and he feels that we need my full income to provide stability for us. DH makes more than I do, but it comes in ebbs and flows. -OP[/quote]
