Unhealthy Food Habits

it is not possible to change your MIl and forcing her to cook , so only other way is try and reduce frequency ... however much you cook veg special dishes , for people used to non veg , it’s appeal is different ... don’t know what else you could ... can your husband cook non veg at home ?

 

apollo fish ? Thanks. I've never heard of that. I shall have to look into that.

 

Its a hyderabadi starter recipe with fish.

 

watched the vahchef video of that.
Your version of substituting baking for deep-frying is obviously less fat-some.

 

Take him for a complete health check up and let him realise.. there is no point in fight and it deviates the issue..

 

You are not at all overreacting.

What you feel is absolutely right..

Your mom in law wants tasty dishes and spoils her son also.Your husband could be a foodie and after coming back from a tired day is asking for tasty food.

It must be tough for you to manage the kid,being pregnant and cooking three times..

Your mil is so unreasonable and your hubby can be more understanding when it comes to
Food..

Can you hire a cook for sometime?
Or order from a healthy mess..

Else can you cook all those items they crave?

Infact try to sit and communicate with your husband and tell him how worried you are..

Try to give him home cooked food from home to office..

 

If the guy is tall enough, he could carry a 100Kg. and look ok.

It is likely that the MIL could suffer something debilitating and not be able to get up to the feeding trough, or do the other bodily functions. The OP ought to extract the promise that when the MIL ends up so, it would be the 100 Kg husband who would do those heavy-lifting services. And that could be the warning shot/red flag to educate the husband.

What happened to the FIL ?

 

OP,

This is not the time to stress out about eating habits of your husband or MIL. You need to take care of yourself first. Maybe you can try talking to your husband to start eating healthy but you can't change him. He is the one who needs to do it not you.

 

Vandhena,

I converted 107 kg to lbs to get better idea. 235 lbs is definitely a lot of weight unless he is over 6 ft, so you do have a point. Your concern is valid. That said, it could be your pregnancy hormones and nesting instinct which is giving such an urgency to this problem. You can’t ‘make’ him lose weight it will take time and it will be a process. So don’t take tension about this. be little patient and keep plugging away at it. Instead of nagging at the time of food when he is hungry no one is ready to listen anyway or trying the logically argue with him maybe change your approach. Let him see how upset you are. Don’t hide your frustration and your emotions. And when he asks y tell him you are worried. With 2 little kids to take care of what will happen if he also gets health issue blah blah?Mil is old lady and we can’t change her eating but what about him? And you? And the kids? Etc etc. I may sound cynical but sometimes tears work where arguments and nagging fail.
