    I put my foot in it last night. Not sure what the results of that will be but I think I definitely hurt his feelings.

    I had washed one of his sweaters and hung it by a window to air dry. I told him he should put it inside the closet now that it was dry and he said well it needs to be ironed first. To which I replied..no it doesn't..you stretch it well enough. DOH!

    I back pedaled out of that one..or tried to anyway. Uff..sometimes I need to zip it! He has gained weight..mostly because we are both enablers of each other. We both love food but unlike me, he has always been a super skinny guy that could eat anything. But he loooved the fast food in college and now has a little pouch for a belly. He has now been good about skipping desserts and eating more fruit and taking care of himself. He even went jogging with me! So my snappy comment wasn't necessary.

    Now I have to go 'do him favors' to apologize..lol

    ETA: So the moral of the story is..don't do what I did..hopefully he will realize he needs to make the change by watching you get fitter and back to your pre baby body. :)

    You could tell him how much you have always admired his 6 pack and that maybe you two should start working out together so you can both have sexy abs. Or maybe get him to "help you get yours in shape" (wink):wink: !

    Not that this was my intention, but by me working out and transforming my body, my boyfriend keeps talking more and more about wanting to try some of the things I do....I think when you and your partner are growing together, you tend to gravitate towards the same interests....and I have pushed him out of his comfort zone and he has been dabbling more into jogging :) It's been nice.

    the term you are looking for is inspire. You are an inspiration to others :smile:

    "Get a six pack or no sex for a month." He's a man, he can take it.

    This would not work on my husband. He know...I wouldn't be able to wait a WEEK!!! lol
