Obsessive/Compulsive

I had to laugh at the suggestion hubby use "portion control" in his diet. He really is an obsessive/compulisive type of guy. He will sit and eat an entire bag of potato chips. Or a whole bag of cookies. He buys a new train bed, all the buildings, the grass and trees, and new trains and it all still sits in the original box. He will have 5 new suits tailor made and not wear a one of them. He will go out on the ATV for 5 days in a row and then not go again for a year.

It's an interesting thing to watch and I do know it must have an impact on his diabetes. He goest through phases where he will be 100% religious about meds/shots/exercise/diet.....and then not even take his shots per schedule for days on end.

Portion control is just not going to work with this guy.

We are back home and we will do more research on nutri systems today. He did diet and exercise 5 years ago and I've been trying to convince him that it's as good as time as any to do it all again. We will see what today brings. He did confess last night that he needs to lose 50 pounds. Hmmm....probably closer to 100, but we can start with 50!
