Default Big diet changes for me

I have had a terrible diet. I get up usually around 11 AM to 1 PM and fix and 12 oz can of diet orange sunkist with about 6 oz of OJ in it. It's in my big insulated mug and with a lot of ice lasts all day. That's al I have until supper at 5 when I EAT. I top that off with my bag of Kettle Corn at bedtime. I need to lose 75 pounds, two chipmunk cheeks and my triglycerides and some blood sugar. So know I have 2 slices of whoe grain toast with peanut butter, a small apple and a glass of OJ when I get up a good granola bar in the afternoon and healthy meal for supper and carrots with dip and raisins at bedtime. I know it's not perfect. I am going to have a consult with a dietician this week. I hope she can give me some nutritional info on the places we go out to eat. I can't find them on their web sites.

Unfortunalty my healthy food i the house is only making my husband eat more. He loves to make his own single servings of peanut butter fudge several times a day and really loads it with sugar and molasses. He eats my cereal by the large bowl ful with heaping soup spoons of sugar. I have shown him what the suggested serving size is. Me trying to loose weight is doing the opposite for him. This is one reason why we eat out 98% of the time. Left overs is not in his vocabulary, he just eats it later that day

So I am really afraid of what to do for Halloween. He loves to be the one to go tot he door, oow and ahh at the kids but when he closes the door grabs at least 2 peices for himself. He doesn't like to give the 'safe' kind of treat, coupons, etc. He has mentioned that Halloween is his regular and favorite Karoake nights. So I am just wanting to close the drapes, not turn on a light and skip it this year.
