Anybody had success getting in shape and as a result experiencing a better marriage life? What's your story, what happened? How'd you fix it?

    How about eating your feelings because you have a cheating spouse and even though you tried very hard to lose the weight, the environment was toxic? So you leave the marriage and suddenly lose 72 pounds? Lol in all seriousness, I totally still believe in marriages being amazing but throwing out the trash sometimes is necessary to improve yourself.

    do it for yourself.

    take care of yourself, love yourself, train yourself.

    not just physically; also, emotionally

    be the best you that you can be, the love will either follow or whither into jealousy.

    you cannot control another person, only yourself

    best of luck and many blessings

    On the contrary, I'm practically a goddess.

    Losing weight has made everything better. She got in shape first...we've had some struggles about all kinds of things.

    But, yeah. It's probably not that uncommon that you know have kids...settle into your jobs. Doing better financially...you get complacent. Get out of shape.

    Sex is a lot more fun when you are in reasonable shape. But...it's not just that. Being active. Having energy to go out and do stuff with your kids.

    It's really stuff like that that makes life feel great.

    Going places. Seeing things.

    Sex is just a big plus...very big plus...that happens to keep the human species going lol....

    Excellent reply. I think you and I are on the same page, except for kids. Don't have those yet.

    life is pretty easy when you decide to give up all hope.

    ^^ I have friends who are an only child. I feel bad for them. I would want at least two.

    i only have one and its great! easier to go on roadtrips eating out vacations etc but i like to keep my clique small though

    I totally get the easy factor from the parents perspective but I would want my kid to have a sibling for socializing reasons and to not be alone. Maybe I'm wrong. I'm not a parent, I know nothing.
