Welcome...and CONGRATULATIONS on the weight loss you accomplished! You should be very proud of yourself.And I hope regardless if you have some backsliding or not, you realize that you can get back to where you want to be again.
I know it hurts when your spouse won't acknowledge an accomplishment like that...from my own personal experience. I don't think they have it in them to be happy for anyone else, let alone tell someone they've accomplished something great..not when they're not happy themselves. They see someone actually doing something with hard work, and they realize they're not where THEY want to be in life. Besides, WAS usually blame the LBS for everything wrong in their life, so why would they (WAS) be happy for us or any accomplishment we made to better our own life.
But believe me....he noticed...big time.
And as far as him and the suggestions of food, and eating, and ice cream, etc. Beware. I would imagine that it's his way of trying to get you back to where you once were...so that he doesn't feel bad about himself and his health issues. He could be trying to sabotage what you've done. I'm not saying don't eat with him...just make sure you do it in moderation, and only when you really feel like you want to eat what he's suggesting.
I agree with the others....take it day by day. It's hard telling whats in his head right now. But if it's MLC, you're in for a long haul, and there's no reason to try to guess what will happen next. As others have told you, protect your own interests (I'm glad you already made some moves in that respect), and your daughters....continue to listen if he talks, remember to not put too much weight on what he might say, but more on his actions, and if he's consistent.
This is a great place for support and understanding. And the faith you have will certainly get you through whatever the future may hold for you and your family.
Women are angels. And when someone breaks our wings, we simply continue to fly...on a broomstick. We are flexible
