My spouse caught me sneaking cake

I also started a diet last month, and during the first weeks, I had these cravings at night. Eating well during the day makes it easier to resist at night. But when your partner says something like that, it makes you feel worse; I've experienced that too.

Does your partner always talk like this? Or is it just a one-time thing? They should really be supportive.

@kirmizikazak is generally supportive, but seeing this at night while feeling guilty, it seems like they got a little angry. I don't think they meant it with bad intentions.

@soncaykaldi why do you feel bad just because they said something? One should also do a diet for oneself; you shouldn’t care about what your spouse says, it’s over and done with.

If you're not getting enough calories during the day, it's normal to have nighttime cravings like this. The desire for sweets especially increases when there's a lack of carbohydrates. Try having a bit more whole grain, oats, and such. However, if your partner's criticism is constant, it can lower your motivation; this is something you need to talk about.

I laughed a lot at the title, but after reading the content, it seemed sad. Is your spouse's comment passive-aggressive, or am I just interpreting it that way?

Peer pressure is not motivating; it's actually suffocating.

I swear I secretly ate chocolate at night too, my spouse caught me and just laughed it off. Anyone who makes an issue out of this has a problem of their own; you should talk to your partner, I think 😂
