Sneaky, making you order from one of your favorite places.... Just waving it around <smh>, they're getting desperate. 

you are really focused. some day soon you will have the last Laugh. 

That's not nice of them to make you order. At least you were able to refrain yourself. Great job! 

I know what you mean about not being tempted. My family gets what ever they want and I enjoy my meal that is much healthier. When they do get pizza, I will scrape all the toppings off and throw the crust away, lol. Of course I also make sure I did good during the day, since the sauce is not great for low carbs. 

I would have gone on strike if DH made me order anything ! good for you for being solid and sticking to your plan. One old schooler here once told me , nothing taste as good as skinny.  

I love my pizza and never gave it up. I only eat the toppings and throw the crust away. That has served me well for a few years now. Good for you for standing your ground. They will all eventually see the changes in you and get interested in eating healthy too! Keep it up! 

You're great! 

I'm used to that sort of stuff, my wife is a fast food junkie and I'm indifferent to it. The biggest part of this game is psychological, once you've got the mental aspect of it under control the rest will fall in line. These days when my wife is eating some of her garbage food I envy her about as much as if she were eating out of a can of Alpo. I don't want to eat her poor choices. Now days I'll order for her and go pick the stuff up. I know it will give me the opportunity to pick up some guacamole or hot wings or any number of other great things that are on my diet.  

yes mahjohn.... I don't know if he is actually doing it on purpose but i do think it's funny when he was on my case about my weight for so long and then doesn't see that having me call was pushing it. I'm trying not to be annoyed and just accept that this is my life now. I can't change anyone else but myself. I can't make others be considerate .... but its like asking a recovering heroine addict to go make a deal and be sure not to use. lol why even put someone in that position? again... I don't think he's doing it on purpose ... he's just used to me taking care of things. lol go on strike HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA my pork loin I made was simple but actually really good. I cooked it in mushroom broth so it would go with sautéed mushrooms ... but i just wanted to eat and go upstairs so I didn't bother with mushrooms. mmmmmmmmmmmmmm guacamole. psychological indeed!!! it really is a mind game and re training how you think and behave. I became a counselor hoping to learn behavior modification to help myself in life.... but it's hard when you do it yourself. I've never really shown this much hope for my eating habits. even when I went vegan I had such little support from my family and I spent so much time trying to change THEM that I wasn't working on my inner strength like i should have been. this time around. .. I don't care what they do. I can advise when asked but i can't change anyone and I have no intention of trying. for once this is just about me. if people want to come along they are welcome ... but if they try and screw me up I'll have to put up a mental block and carry on with blinders.  

When I'm deep in my low carb "zone," pizza, cookies, chips, etc. all just look like cardboard to me. Even the smell doesn't matter, though at times can be more of a threat. So I can see how you weren't bothered in terms of temptation but yes, it would be nice if your husband was being more supportive. Hopefully he compliments you on your progress? I am single now but I understand that partners can subconsciously feel threatened when the other half makes a change, even if it's one they have been campaigning for.  

Well durring a conversation he said I was doing well. he isn't one to complement much... he just slaps your ass ... those are his complements LOL
