The SO

Much easier when both are in the same journey to get healthy together and be a bad *kitten* super power team but give it time, the SO will come around. Small steps at first.0

I get the "look" when I don't want to eat what she cooks for dinner and if I offer any suggestions then the "look" becomes "I'm sorry if you hate what cook." When if fact I don't hate it but would rather eat something healthy.0

Nope not yet.. but he keeps active somewhat. The only thing he's turned down so far is going running with me but he's pretty much open to anything outdoors.0

Ea its not me I'm single. I got a couple of friends one wants to be in shape and the SO is lazy and complains that working out takes time away from the couple.0
-
I think a SO should support a choice to get healthy, now if the SO really cared then at some point they should also want to get inshape and healthy. It will also keep one from getting jealous, because the one that is not lazy starts getting attention and the lazy out of shape one is now worried and insecure0

My fiance is incredibly supportive of me. I'm very lucky. Does all the household chores so I can find time to work out, weighs and measures my meals, has said he'll come to my first official 5k, doesn't complain when I'm walking in circles around the supermarket checking calories and comparing products.
I can't imagine what I'd do if he didn't support me. I feel guilty enough already, sometimes!0 -
nope, never. :] only over health, not shape. i want him to be healthy, eat healthier, sleep more etc.0
-
Yep, when I'm trying to be healthy, we argue about everything. I feel like I want to stay in shape for both of us, but he could really care less. Things would prob be much easier if I were a couch potato.. :ohwell: !!0
-
We did, at first. But he couldn't beat me, so he joined me.
Resistance is futile. You will be assimilated.

He's paranoid I'm gonna get fit and leave him0
-
Nope. He is very supportive, why would he complain when he is obviously benefitting from my awesomeness? He has recently decided to get healthy as well, he is gaining and building more muscle. I've inspired him, and that make me feel freaking awesome.0
-
Mine is 100% supportive. He knows I wasnt happy before and he tells me all the time how proud he is of me. Would he bust his *kitten* like I do? No, but he gets a kick out of watching me do it; its the booty shorts (;0
-
No. Well I mean, my boyfriend is in better shape than me, but we work together on staying healthy.0
-
My husband has been 100% supportive but sometimes needs a refresher on 'some' things that I cant have.. .but I dont hold it against him for it because its my responsibility (food allergies, UGH)... not his....
Ill still prepare the same foods he loves, while I make the foods I enjoy. He supports my going to the gym: if I dont hear the alarm go off at 4am, he will wake me up, kiss me goodbye right before I leave, and Im out the door by 4:45am to hit the gym for 5am.0 -
Yep, esp most of this week as I was in a real stropfest over lack of sleep for several nights. I wanted to eat crap, he wanted to us both to eat healthy food. He was right and I was stubborn. So it's no surprise that he is doing loads better than I am. But seeing his success gives me my motivation back.0

More like..."So" now that you have loss weight you are not trying to lose any more right? UGH Hate that....0
