Answer 14

I have 4 in the family 2 of us joined. The 3rd person desperately need to lose weight and the forth is fit and trim and works out at the gym I decided that everyone will eat what i cook If the ones not on the program want to eat unhealthy they do. But when we all come together as a family to eat dinners its ww.  

Answer 15

Yeah, if he eats what you eat, he’ll probably lose weight

Answer 16

Yes concentrate on you and what u want - if he eats what you cook he will also do well.  

Answer 17

Sounds like a good idea to me

Answer 18

Tell him to count calories

Answer 19

Yes and HE can add or subtract the food(s) whatever he wants to make himself happy.  

Answer 20

I actually joined bc my husband joined first and I saw all the progress he was making. I would focus on you. Make those low point meals and maybe he’ll just start seeing the results and want to get more from the program. It’s different for everyone and you can’t force him to track, it’s his decision.  

Answer 21

Must be related to my husband. Drives me crazy because he seems to always ask me about the point value of something right when I’m tracking mine. Like a 7-yr-old, wanting his answer now.  

Answer 22

My fiancé and I we are doing it together

Answer 23

Absolutely. If he is dependent on you for his food, cook for yourself. I did this with my husband. Rather than cook for himself, he eats what I cook. He is eating a lot healthier now.  

Answer 24

Have him eat what you eat! When he starts looking he will understand.  

Answer 25

My husband eats what I eat and then has 8 extra points.  

Answer 26

If he eats what you eat he'll probably lose faster than you, it seems to be the case with men. We have two couples at our workshop, they are on the same plan and the men are losing more.  

Answer 27

My husband did not want to join, but because of how I am eating he is losing weight.  

Answer 28

My husband is getting skinny via osmosis  

Answer 29

My son was like that a first, he hates tracking but he took my free membership invite to try it for a month, turns out he loves it, is on purple and is down 40 pounds in 2 months. Tell him to try the free first month, the only thing he has to lose is weight, my son says the app being so user friendly is what sold him.  

Answer 30

My husband eats whatever I make and just from me making better choices in his presence it’s making him follow suit without even thinking about it.  

Answer 31

Yep focus on your self and let him eat what he likes

Answer 32

My husband and son eat what I eat and have for years. If they don't like it then they can make themselves a turkey sandwich.  

Answer 33

Halve his meals.  

Answer 34

My husband so skinny and eats whatever. I eat so much more healthy foods so unfair.  

Answer 35

Do it for yourself then. too frustrating if he won't count points as men get more points.  

Answer 36

Cook for two. He will eat. .  

Answer 37

Do fat secret app & have him log his food, it holds you accountable !  

Answer 38

My husband doesn't track and he loses weight because I changed our food in the house which helps

Answer 39

I hate tracking too! Weighing, measuring, counting. ugh! Just serve what you eat and he should lose right along with you

Answer 40

Just cook the way you want to cook. He will start losing and be amazed. That is how it is with my husband is and he is losing faster than me. But men always do. He has even started making some meals

Answer 41

I just switched to blue, with that said I have been fixing WW recipes. My husband has been raving about them. Get your recipes from the web site and go for it. He will be happy.  

Answer 42

Don't tell him it is a WW recipe. My significant other is very thin if it four servings he can have seconds and I can still have leftovers just measure yours first.  

Answer 43

Yep just do you he will be motivated I have been doing weight watchers for over a year my husband is not doing it he eats pretty good he is diabetic . He always ask me what I can eat when we go out he is very mindful of my points. Now he is joining a program through the VA . You keep doing you . I have had friends and family join WW in other states people are watching and being inspired. Which keeps me motivated and going. I only joined WW for ME. that is why it is working and not because I did not feel pretty heavier but I wanted to have more energy get out of plus size clothes that’s it.
