Hi Lynne

I'm in denial myself really, as I don't particularly want to admit

that DH has been lying to me for 3 years.

My own problems aside, do you have any thoughts on how NOT to enable

him? I have told him that I think one of his issues with food is his

sub-conscious telling him " if I don't cook it, it's not my

responsibility if I get fat " . However, I don't think he really

accepts it.

What helped you admit to being a secret eater? Should I try to find

a stash of " forbidden " foods? Should I quiz his sister (who works

with him every day) whether he goes out for food? Should I confront

him and force him to tell me? Threaten to leave if he doesn't lose

weight (I don't want to go there - I have no intention of leaving

him).

Thanks for any help

Jo
