    Wendy,

    Remember the reason you are dieting. For yourself. Once you have the right motivation, you will succeed. As you go along in your quest, I bet your husband will be more supportive. Maybe not with words, but with looks and admiration for your new self. Your new self should include not only a slimmer boy, but you will have a lot more confidence!

    Hi... my name is Wendy and I turned 40 yesterday and have been dieting for the past 1-1/2 months... I have lost a total of 25# counting before starting this sight and since.... one reason I joined is because I do not have the support at home... my daughter
    is dieting with me but does not live with me.... I have 3 teenagers and 1 grandson right now and expecting twins in Sept. from my
    other daughter.... I have been married for almost 9 years and it is my second marriage... I feel like giving up most days because
    of comments that I hear from him.... he tells me I need to just stop with this diet and all cause I will not stick to it and jsut learn
    to live with being what I am.... since I have started and lost the 25#, he has not said anything at all... I can not even get him to tell me
    that I am doing a good job or tell me that he can notice anything.... he is small and does not have to worry about his weight so he
    does not understand that i need to hear that he can tell and that I am doing good... guess thats just life.... I am trying to loose
    about 80 to 85 pounds and still have a long way to go.... any support or friends that understand would be nice

    You have kids and a man your settled. Your doing this for yourself and no one else It wont change anything for other people. You do it to make yourself feel better and look good. It doesnt matter what others think of it or if your man doesn't say anything about it he loves you already anyway 9 year of marriage. Just keep in mind your doing it for yourself
