What does your spouse or significant other think?

My husband is doing this with me. He's very supportive and positive about it all. I hope everyone who is in a relationship has a very supportive significant other!

My husband is very supportive and is as excited about my reaching goal weight as I was. He has been there every step of the way and can't keep his hands off my much smaller butt!

My husband is who motivated me. He joined Weight Watchers last year and has lost 60 lbs, so far. He is now doing C25K & I couldn't sit on my butt and watch him anymore. I had to do something, too.

My husband loved me when I was under weight, when I was way over weight and still loved me now that I am healthy. He supports me and even started a healthy lifestyle himself. The last time he saw me was almost over 30lbs ago...so kinda curious how things will go once he is home.

side note: he is deployed that's why he is not home.

My SO is always suspicious that I am trying to be fit for looking/dating/affairs with other girls!

my husband has been very supportive. He doesn't make comments when I stray and is always honest when I ask him questions about my weightloss journey. Normally he'll give me a please don't troll look when i ask him if my butt looks big lol. otherwise he never makes comments unless its to tell me that he thinks im beautiful or that he notices a difference.

One thing that he has notice is that my confidence and how I see myself has gotten better and more positive. He truly loves that aspect it because he doesnt care wether or not I lose weight but I how I feel about myself

My wife is very supportive. Since I am bulking now (and also not tracking intake for personal reasons) I let her decide where we go out to eat and I let her have most of the say in what we have for dinner and I structure my diet around that.

When I am cutting, which I'll begin around March, she will go back to measuring and counting the ingredients any time she makes dinner, and when we go out to eat I'll usually be the one to decide where, so that I'll be able to accurately hit my macro targets/etc.

I'm very fortunate.

My bf and I do this together. We both encourage each other in both diet and exercise. And are in a great journey together!

My husband is very encouraging and tells me how good I look and proud that I am doing so well. However, no matter what weight I have been at, he is always very complimentary. He has never in our 19 year marriage said I didn't look good. He loves my curves, although they have been a little curvier lately (ha). He could also afford to lose some weight but I never say anything about his body as he has never dogged on me. I am working on losing 40 pounds. 11 pounds so far!

My husband has seen me start and abandon so many weight loss and/or fitness efforts that he's completely lost confidence in me, I think. He's been good to me through fat and thin, so my weight loss and fitness efforts truly don't matter to him. I'll just have to stay the course this time and surprise both of us.

^^^This!

My boyfriend won't even eat the healthy food I cook and makes no effort to support me directly.
All he says is
"Huh. Good for you."

My wife is the same, except she's not as supportive.

I am very fortunate to have a very supportive husband. When we first met 25 yrs ago we were both runners and cycled. After a lot of ups and downs, 2 kids and hip replacement, I'm trying to get back at it. He is actually ahead of me! But we share everything

My wife is very supportive...she's not doing MFP, but she has been losing weight, namely because I do most of the cooking so she's eating what I'm eating and we're eating far smaller portions than we used to. We're also having more sex, so WINNING!

im losing weight for my self not my husband ! if he likes the effect of my weight loss , well good but ultimately im doing it for my self .......

^^^ This! Do it for yourself!

He thinks it's funny to wave a chips ahoy cookie in front of my face while I'm in front of the computer on MFP trying to log in my calories. Jokes on him though, since chips ahoy is NOT on my cheat worthy list. He will never find out what is.


It's like a spy movie, I have to be 2 steps ahead of each move he might make with snack and meal bars in my purse and coat, and stashed in secret spots in both cars. I have to time my shakes to drink them while I prepare meals to avoid temptation by smell, and sometimes have to supply an Oscar worthy performance at restaurants pretending to order a regular meal, but really calculating in my head the calories or just choosing my moment to order AFTER his menu's been taken away so he doesn't catch on I chose one of the easily identifiable "lite choices" that most restaurants have nowadays.

It's not that he doesn't support my diet it's that he doesn't support THIS diet I chose this time because he saw another diet work for me and it allowed plenty of indulgent foods which meant we could eat out a lot and eat the same foods. Also he is such a suspicious person that he is wary of the shakes having some kind of weight loss drug in them, but I read the label and they don't, they are just an easy way to get a pre measured amount of calories and enough fiber to stay full for awhile. I chose this diet over the other one because this one only requires cooking maybe once per day maybe not at all on days we go out, and I need it to be THAT easy this time. Weekends are the only time his shenanigans become an issue because we are together all day then, and his way of loving is giving being generous and food is part of that. He can't eat something amazing without immediately wanting to share it with me, me too though, so I get it.
