Sounds like perfect weight for his height. He says he works out 5-6 times a week so I would expect some muscle. He could easily be even heavier and still lean.
To OP, just ignore your wife. You are eating a perfectly healthy diet. And I sympathize with you not being able to fill up on vegan meals. I have the same issue. I can get full but I feel like sh*t and super sluggish from all the carbs.

Idk. My husband works out every day, is the same height, and chubby at 190. His best weight is 175.

He obviously either does not lift or does not know what he is doing. 190 on a guy over 6 feet really is not that much if they carry enough muscle.

You sound fat.

How predictable. Sorry you’re so insecure.

DP, with normal BMI, so don’t bother

Suggest that if she stops nagging you about it, but it will help the animals/planet more than if you are 100% not vegan. I love being a meat eater, but I feel I can do vegan 2x a week (and have when my family members are stricter about their vegetarianism/veganism).

But if she nags or even mentions veganism on your non-vegan days then the next vegan day is off. I really mean that. You should not have to deal with that.

OP here. I can but I need the protein to feel full. I don’t feel full on just a salad or plate of vegetables like she does.

I'm with you. I don't have any long term energy without protein.

OK, OP, what do you actually want from this thread, then? I keep hearing "I can't do that" or "I won't do that" from you. No advice needed if you won't be open to it.

He wanted to get pats on the back for how awesome he is and great his free range egg and Kerrygold butter diet is. I bet his wife isn’t even a vegan and doesn’t give two sh*ts what he eats

Nope PP is right. They are both weirdos.

I’m the PP that accused “gross.” Not fat. And not harping on OP for spending time on DCUM. Clearly, that would be hypocritical. I’m criticizing the amount of energy being consumed by diet journaling, down to the brand of butter and cross referencing with the potential snark based on historical DCUM post data and the fact that this is, in his world, such a source of conflict that it is worthy of crowdsourcing and inner and marital torment. Just eat the damn steak. And maybe keep the highbrow butter selection to yourself.

Yeah, OP is off...

It was entirely unnecessary to go on and on about the minute details of his diet down to the brands and conditions in which the chickens were raised. Saying something like, “I eat well balanced, heathy, minimal processed foods, lots of fruits and vegs, cook from scratch” would have been more than enough. He sounds erratic and perhaps OCD

Again, you must be new to DCUM. Posters are asked very specific questions about their diets and lifestyle by posters. OP was being proactive by supplying the details.
