Just Have to Brag!

4Matt

I have to take a minute & brag about my fiance. He has treated me with such love, kindness, gentleness, & respect since we met just over a year ago. He rushed me to the hospital in May when I was having severe pain in my side. Doctor scared him but saying it could possibly be cancer- that's the night he proposed the first time. Fortunately it was just gallstones & had my gallbladder removed a couple months later when the pain became too much.
He has also been there for me during some very difficult times this past year. He has been a confidant & friend in a city I had just moved to. He's been the shoulder for me to cry on, the ear to listen & the person who I run to to share good news. He's my best friend.
He knows that I've been struggling with my weight & frustrated. This past few days have been a challenge mentally for me. A friend I've known for 20 years is on MFP as well & mentioned getting the kettlebells & she highly recommended I get them. When he got home last night I told him I wanted to go & get them...he said he'd pay for them & that he was going to buy me a scale to weigh my food too. (He was going to surprise me by picking it up after work today.)
What?! Are you real?! *pinch, pinch, pinch* He is such an amazing man! So after Tango lessons we went & bought the kettlebells & scale. I texted my friend & told her. After texting back & forth we ended the conversation with her telling me to give him a hug for her. I did & burst into tears! Was this really the man that I'm going to marry?! He said he wants to do everything he can to support me & reach my goals. Yes ladies & gentlemen! Men like this do exist...the thing is it isn't an act either. People who have known him for years say that is exactly the man he is.
I just had to take a few minutes & brag about my AMAZING fiance!

Hey! I've got a very supportive hubby, too! They ARE out there and they ARE amazing! He kicks me in the butt when I need it, and always supports me and tells me I'm beautiful and just getting more beautiful. It's awesome having that kind of support! Thanks for sharing!

Thats usually the way it works most siblings are night and day. I know my sister and I are nothing alike, grew up in the same house but view are childhood so vastly different.

Anyway just want to say I am happy for you. How was the workout with the kettlebells? Did the scale for the food help?
