"I'm not really out of anyone's league... But I appreciate the compliments, love." She said and chuckled. "We're just having a little fun... We're practically on a date. Holding hands, going on a long walk... And soon I'll be changing another one of your diapers..." she stared and tilted her head. "Sure feels like we've got something going on." She said and chuckled.
It's amazing to me that so many folks have spouses or partners who aren't supportive.

I've only ever dabbled with them while awake and very sparingly. I can't say much definitive for curbing snacking and helping with weight loss but I don't see why it couldn't help for that as long as the effort is put in.
