If your wife wont cook?

She should consider herself lucky that her husband knows how to and wants to cook!

COOK TOGETHER AND MAKE IT FUN

why not get her involved in the choices of the meals that you make. if you are cooking lite, you can make just about anything just control the ingredients you use.. you can even cook mexican food and still watch the calories, carbs and fats..

kimmer727

You can cook for me anytime!

tls

Maybe she doesn't like to cook. It is not just the womens job to do the cooking. You do it. I'm sure there are some things that you don't like to do that she does. But anyway maybe if you talk to her about it you could work something out that maybe you cook one night and she will cook the next.

sunflowergal

if you cook, you're a keeper. She's a lucky woman!

Do as much cooking as you would if she cooked too. The rest of the meals consider a snack or eating out healthy.

Lizabethe

Control her? My, someone thinks the world revolves around them, eh? If you have medical conditions that require you to regulate your diet, then that's what you should do. As your friend and your wife, she should be willing to do her share and help with the cooking. It sounds like she's being selfish at the expense of your health... and that's not something that you do to people you love.

She needs to be more understanding

Watch your health first....

LLLAM

Keyspassion

wow, she is obviously not concerned with your health... tell her to get what she wants to eat, and get something better for yourself... before you married her, you should have figured out that she doesn't cook

She needs to realize you have health roblems and need to eat a special diet. You can't just eat mexican food all the time. plus it is much more expensive to eat out all the time thatn it is to cook a meal at home. i say just cook for yourself, and let her worry about what she will eat for awhile. don't cook her dinner, just enough for you. and when she starts complaining, tell her it is too much work to cook for two people all the time by yourself. maybe then she'll offer to help. no one likes to go out to eat alone, and it might get the point across when you stop cooking for her. tell her she doesn't have to cook all the time, but it would be very helpful if she cooked a couple days a week. and tell her once or twice a month you don't mind going to her restaurant. you just need the duties of mealtime to be divided equally, and tell her how much you would appreciate it. if she still won't pick up any of the slack, just cook dinner for yourself and let her worry about herself. hopefully she'll come around eventually. good luck.

You can show her how to make Mexican food low-fat... that can be done.

Nick E

Cook yourself, some things just are not worth arguing over. Now if she complains about what you cook, then thats another story.

Dood

You own a belt, don't you?

Electric Dazeys

I agree, she should feel special that you're doing the cooking and she should also be understanding about it.

Moni

your health is ALWAYS first. and try cooking together try to get her to understand you better.

Your health comes first. If she doesn't understand that then that's her problem !!

yOU SHOULD COOK BECAUSE MEXICAN FOOD iS REALLy GREASY=[

Janu

I believe that marriage is a team effort however if your wife refuses to cook than don't worry about it. Since your Cholesterol and blood pressure are high than you should eat what will lower them and when she gets hungry she'll either eat what you've prepared on cook something herself.

dollyc

if she wont cook for you then just cook for the both of you then she may get the hint that you are not going to get sick from not eatting the proper foods i cook for my hole family every night and some times its nice to just have someone else do it for a change and then she might start to do the same again

Leo G

GO in and out ftw.

pitchingcoach

You know you have to eat a certain way. If you've got the ability then just do it.

traveler07

Figure out which option will yield a longer life. Controlling high blood pressure or placating your wife.

dstillloved

you learn how!!!

jeannieboop

that's bull tell her not to be so lazy

merry cate

It sounds like you are married to a very selfish woman.

You need to ask yourself if your relationship is in trouble and both of you are competing to win the "who can give less" contest, i.e. what have you done to make her not want to give to you? OR if, in fact, she is by nature very self-centered and lacks compassion.

If you are in a power struggle, you both need to make changes and compromises to be more loving towards each other.

If it is all her baggage, just take care of yourself the best you can and decide whether it is worth sharing your life with someone who doesn't care about you.

buttercupp_1961

I think I would have a talk with her and explain to her why you don't feel you should go out to eat as much. Tell her that the both of you should really watch your health and try to compromise. Don't make her feel you are downing her but that you are doing it for her as well as yourself. Also ask her why she doesn't like to cook. There may be a reason why she don't want to cook. Maybe if you sit with her the two of you can work this out. A marriage is not a piece of cake. Sometimes we seem to give more than our share but most of the time it is worth it
