Hi everyone and..... HELP!!!!

Hello! I just recently had my fourth baby and I am trying to lose the weight that I gained and a few extra I put on before I got pregnant. I have the motivation and desire, and while I love my husband dearly, he is my biggest obstacle. He is constantly trying to talk me out of my workouts (started p90x 2 weeks ago) and he is always trying to get me to have cocktails with him in the evenings as well as eating poorly. I am pretty strong willed and am victorious most of the time but I guess I am just looking for some supportive people to help get me through my hubby's temptations. I need to lose at least 30 lbs so its going to take a while. Hope everyone is having a great day and look forward to making some new friends. :-)

    Hi there,

    I am quite amazed that your husband would want to sabotage all your great efforts! Well done to you for having the will power to resist it all. Stay positive and hopefully your husband will see that you are being serious with your new plan and help support your journey.

    I have only been on MFP for a couple of weeks but the support is invaluable and just reading the forums is so inspirational. I am aiming to loose about 40lbs - I have been up and down with my weight for many years, but this time feels so much more positive. MFP is so easy to use and I feel like I am enjoying food more than ever (rather than just eating because I could or the all too often closet eating!)

    I would gladly offer some support so add me as a friend if you would like to share your journey :-)

    Good luck!
