Debbie Thanks for the heads up, I'll keep an eye for that kind of strategy on her part. I think she is more likely to try and sink us into debt so that we can't afford to separate. I'll be splitting the finances soon, if she doesn't stabilize.
I've tried to tell her I don't care what she eats. She still perceives that I am constantly pressuring her. Sounds like a guilty conscience to me.
carollynne Thanks for the Star McDougaller encouragement. Most of the kids are trying to stay neutral ATM. #2 is doing E2, so he's already come to the
Dark Side. I'll be using my Super Vegan Force Powers tomorrow night in an attempt to corrupt DIL. If I could just get one more child on board, the victory would be mine!
I'm not fond of the idea of going to counselling without her.
toadfood Some people seem to wake up everyday waiting for someone to offend them. I am definitely NOT one of those people.
She says she id proud of me, and doesn't want me to change my diet, but she hates my diet at the same time and thinks it's wrong. Beats the heck out of me....Bitch be crazy!
nicoles One of the things she said she is upset about, is I didn't change my diet after my first two heart attacks. When she wanted me to. Of course she refused to buy anything other than real butter, I would buy the "healthy" margarine and she would throw it away. Also we always used half'n'half and whole milk, and regular cheese. At the time it just seemed silly to me to NOT eat fast food, since it was about the same nutritionally as her healthy choices.
I dunno, that fact that I changed for me, and not for her?
BBC? haha, that's awesome!
VegSexy It's just food, I haven't even gone all ethical vegan on her yet..lol I'm dealing with her one day at a time.
Adrienne She told me Yesterday that at this point is was a matter of pride, and she would NEVER change her diet now.
I know we didn't have a prefect marriage before I started this way of eating. She also seems to be offended that I didn't come to her and discuss it with her. I told her I was desperate and felt this was my only hope, and that I knew she would oppose it, and I didn't want her to talk me out of it.
♥ Amy ♥ Welcome and thanks! I watched "Forks Over Knives" first, and it is available on Netflix. I started watching "Fat Sick and Nearly Dead" but never finished. "Food Inc." Is also pretty good, but not vegan.
The little dog likes mango too!

Went to the gym today, surprisingly I didn't feel as good as I thought I would. Matter of fact getting out of the showers I felt pretty bad. Got out to the car, and wasn't feeling any better. Decided to check my blood pressure, it was 84/53 with a pulse of 100. Grabbed some lunch and drank lots of fluids, started feeling better.
Checked again on the way home, 106/67 Pulse 83. Think maybe it's time to try going off the BP medicine again.
