My "Aha Moment" happened because of a package of meat. I asked my husband to stop by the store to pick up a few things for dinner on his way home, and when he got home, he brought the bag to me in the kitchen. I started pulling things out of the bag but realized he'd gotten the 70/30 meat - which means it's 70% lean and 30% fat.

I got mad at my husband. I asked, "What's this?" Looking confused, he replied, "meat."

"You didn't get the right kind," I shouted.

I was not a good guy. The truth is that, I have told my wife that I am not cheating on her, not because of her but because of God. So, it is rather about the fear of God than love for my wife, which is legendary.
