That's Awesome! Makes it so much easier when you can do it together!!

I love my hubby too. He jumped on it as soon as I did. Health is contagious. Getting healthy together is liberating. My friend who is 43 who doesn't eat very well or exercise just had a brain aneurysm and almost died. She was lucky that she is a doctor and was at a doctor's convention but she is thin and beautiful so you would never expect anything like this to happen. As we get older we have to maintain our bodies all the more. I am so thankful she didn't lose her life. Now hopefully she will think more about her lifestyle and make some changes, of course after getting her beautiful brain back to the way it was.

Nagging doesn't work, does it?

My husband is overweight, needs to take BP medicine, now prescribed cholesterol medicine, and his doctor strongly advises him to lose weight. I am always working out and eating right. He knows he needs to change. I have pushed him and pushed him and he doesn't get it... I know this nagging has the opposite affect, he's even told me so.

He needs to come to the realization on his own and make the change when he's ready, right?

**sigh**

That is fantastic!!!
I too am hoping that at some point my hubby will join me with my journey as well! He has put on some weight and he has even recognized that he needs to lose weight as well but it is hard to take that first step and stay with it. He has seen me remain strong at cookouts/party's that we have recently been too and has also seen me stay strong when someone has brought sweets to my house, like my MIL!
I am waiting for him to say hey I want to do this with you!
Until then I will continue on my journey!

Again congrats and what fantastic news!! Good luck to you BOTH on your journey!!

Thanks:)

Sorry about your frend! Hope she continues to get better:) My friend is tall and thin- looks healthier than I do but she's a mess- low iron, high blood pressure, migraines, she eats terrible. sleeps terrible and doesn't exercise. Yeah, it's amazing how much more AWARE you are when you get older of your health. People in their 40's are probably healhier than people in their 20's, just because they realize it's now or never.

Mine has diabetes and high BP and high cholesterol.He's not obese but overweight and all in his belly. I am heavier than him but probably just fortunate to not get it also. He is Mexcan and the food, although yummy, is sooo high in fat and sodium and calories. His family doesn't help, always pushing the food on him.Idiots. He's going to have to learn to say no all by himself.I tell them, no- we can't eat that! I have never seen people who eat that much or that unhealthy- it's crazy.It will catch up with them later....So no, nagging does NOT work!!!! He will come around.
