Help me understand

because I just don't. At all.

 This may seem very petty, and that's fine, but I am at my wits end.

DH is a junk food junkie.  Seriously.  He eats crap all of the time.  He loves cereal, eats it by the tupperware bowlfuls.  Junk. Cocoa Krispies, Cookie Crisp, Cocoa Puffs.  Buys big boxes at Sam's.  I don't eat this stuff.

I am insulin resistant and try very hard to eat low glycemic foods and eat healthy.  I buy cereal for me once in awhile, low glycemic, high fiber stuff. 

 And every freaking time, he eats all of it, while his stash of crap sits in the cupboard.

I'm starving, so I go to have some Fiber one Cereal.  He left me a fricking handful. I am killed him.  It's more of an insult to leave me a handful than to eat it all.

And why he eats the stuff I buy, healthy, why his boatload of heart attack waiting to happen sits in the cupboard is beyond me.

 Help me understand.  Maybe there's a rational reason that I'm not thinking of because all I can see is how plain rude he's being. OMG.

  • I don't buy that bad stuff. He DOES.

  • My H does the same freaking thing. ?He seems to prefer the kids' gluten-free animal crackers to the chips he buys for himself. ?Drives me crazy. ?

  • I cant explain why he does that.....but I would start hiding my stuff, or only buy the healthy stuff.  Then you should always have enough.
  • Ugh.  Thanks. I know how petty this sounds, but it's so hard to live in a junk food house (that he buys) when you are borderline diabetic and try to do the right thing and eat healthy, but what you can eat is gone.  It sucks.  Thanks for listening.

  • that stinks. my dad just eats everything in the house. My mom literally hides boxes of cereal, chips, granola bars, etc in funny places. Nothing like going in the linen closet and finding a box Nilla wafers.  LOL Maybe you should start hiding your cereal
