this is my awesome husband Jon
I took this picture of him this morning when i was tying my shoes to go to work, its hard to see what hes doing but hes not only making my lunch, but hes MEASURING the portion size. all this after he woke up when I couldn't fall back to sleep at four am. (I'm pregnant) recently I've been waking up at four and cant get back to bed, he gave me a massage, which helped me get back to sleep. then donated blood, then came home made my lunch for me. I have open amazing and awesome husband. I wanna yell it on a mountain! sometimes when i tell people how good my man is they ask, "Oh, he must be a stay at home dad?" no baby, after all this he takes the baby to daycare and then goes to work himself fulltime. He is amazing, my rock, my everything!
what does your spouse do that is amazing? brag about em. good karma baby

thats so good, support is so huge.0 -
Love this! That is incredibily sweet.0

He sounds awesome! My bf supports my efforts, but he doesn't really know how to support me (if that makes sense). Also, if he happens to ever use the kitchen, it looks like a tornado has been through there :laugh:0
-
He is a Keeper! It is really good to have someone by your side who is loving and supportive. Unfortunetly, I can not teach my cat how to measure things accurately. :laugh: :laugh: :laugh:0

Seems like you have a good man - its GREAT to see a post from someone bragging on their husband for a change ! I also have a great husband - definitely blessed (even though he's not about to go into the kitchen and cook/measure LOL).0
-
Glad to see a good man and glad to see you recognizing and praising him for it0

Aww, it's hard to find good men like that. So sweet.0

That's so sweet! My husband has done a ton for me, like driving across the country every time he had a three day weekend in the army just to visit for 36 hrs before having to drive back.
Now that we're married and living together if I had a rough day at work and am exhausted he'll make my tea for me so I can just sit around and be lazy. He also tucks me into bed every night since I go to bed first. He's also been really supportive of my weight loss journey and will give my "sore" muscles a rub, even though he's probably 10x as sore from working on cars all day.
Best of all, he makes me laugh every day.0 -
I have a great husband, my 2nd
He has always been super fit, but loved me at any size or shape, even when I had cancer and lost all my hair and gained LOADS of weight.
He does all the washing up and kitchen cleaning when I have made a mess with my creative cooking.:blushing:
He makes muesli and chopped fruit for breakfast every day. All kinds of delicious, healthy berries.
He has patiently encouraged me to take exercise and does a gym session with me every day. Now he puts up with my Born Again passion for fitness and tells me how great I am doing. I am now 8 lbs lighter than when he met me.
Oh and he finds me hot.:blushing: He is 67, I am 63.0 -

sounds like mine! he tucks me in bed every night too. not joking when i say im blessed and i know it with this guy.0 -
My husband did one of the worst, but best things to help me this go round with my weight loss. When I first started, I asked him to help me stay on track, keep me motivated, and be my support system for the first three weeks because I could never make it past that time frame. He told me NO! I was so sad that we argued about it everyday during the first week. He did not want to talk about it with me, help me, or NOTHING! The funny thing is that we have been together 10 years and he knows me very well. I tend to have this thing where when something is not given to me or done when I ask, I prove that I can do it on my own. Guess what happened? I used my anger to prove to him that I did not need him and that I would do it on my own! My motivation was to show him that I didn't need him! Week 3, my husband came home with new weights and a jump rope for me and told me CONGRATS!!! He said that it was so hard for him to ignore my cry for help, but he knew that I would not quit because I wanted to show him that I didn't need him...He has been my support system every time I tried to lose weight but because I was depending on him, it never lasted. The two weeks that he made me do it for me, by myself, helped me to zone in on why I needed to lose this weight! Since week 3, he has been doing the normal, asking me about my day, asking me to work out together(my husband works out everyday). He has even started eating cleaner with me so that I am not tempted and things have been great! I experienced a few injuries over the past 5 weeks and he has been there to tell me don't give up! I will never be able to thank him enough for pushing me through what is always the hardest part of my journey, the 1st 2 weeks, because had he helped me, I may not have deveopled the independence to get fit on my own:)0

He's keeper0

OMG - shes does freakin' everything! Great mom, great cook, runs her own business, makes me laugh - the list goes on and on.0

Aweee, that's adorable! I'm so glad you found such a great guy. And, you are also a great gal... or else he wouldn't do that for you. Hehe. Congrats on the pregnancy. It's nice to see a woman post something like this about their husband. The world is filled with negativity--horrible "baby daddy" stories. This made me smile, very wide.0

yay for awesome men!!!
my boyfriend is a little lost in the kitchen so i would not let him prepare my meals (last time he did that he trow frozen spinach and raw potatoes in a frying pan and cooked spaghettie for 1 hour) but he measures my food when i asked him to get me something and he keeps his chocolate and sweets at work and not at home where i am tempted0 -
last wk my hubby
blind folded me and took me outside. had a blanket laid down with rose petals on it and one of my favorites cd's playing on the laptop and candles lit around us .He had a dessert and some sparkling juice . we laid down watched the stars then a songs came on and we danced which was fun and romatic,and he got me flowers too and a cute card that he wrote a bunch inside
Then the week before
Got up with the kids them morning got their diapers changed,Breakfast ready and a load of laundry started. Matt asked me what was wrong told him i was just tired. He told me to go back to sleep he'd take care of the kids. I woke up and the living room was cleaned up, he finished cleaning the kitchen and laundry room/back room0 -
I'm also pregnant, 37 weeks, but I have been bedridden most of it with HG, hooked up to IVs and a PICC line, my husband works 12 hours a day, picks the kids up, cooks dinner, helps with homework, puts them to bed, helps me with meds, cleans the kitchen, preps breakfast for me the next day and makes the kids lunches for school the next day. He never complains, even when cleaning up my puke. He's always this fabulous, though.0

I just have to say, I freaking love your profile picture!0 -
He is a very sweet winner of a husband!0

I love that! That's great he's so supportive.
My husband does all the "little things" all the time to make me feel like a queen. He's a great coach and cheerleader (he'd probably not like that I called him that, but for lack of a better term...) in my weight loss goals, and I don't know what I'd do without him0 -
That is SO sweet of him! Congrats on the good catch! (-:
My husband went into the kitchen the other day. My potassium has been low so I was laying on the sofa. I was not paying attention to what he was doing. He made us both a salad, and even measured mine out before he brought it to me.
I thought it was incredibly sweet!
Yesterday he took me to the ER after I injured my foot doing a workout. I had waited for him to get home instead of bothering him at work. He said, "Babe, any time you need me don't wait! Just call me. I don't mind." I simply said... "I love you to." :-) I was in to much pain to explain why I hadn't called...lol0 -
My hubby cooks AND cleans (back off ladies, he's mine ) In fact, he probably does 90% of the cooking, since I just plain don't like to cook and he does. He doesn't even complain when we eat chicken or fish for the 19,520th night in a row, even though he's the type that's easily bored with the same foods. He's so proud of my progress and he's been there to support me through the good weigh ins and the bad eating days. He even went for a 7 mile walk with me last night. He's also an amazing dad, preferring to spend time playing games with his daughter to doing his own thing.0

it might be the PMS or the allergies, but that one brought tears to my eyes!0 -
Hubby and I are both working together to get healthy. I work full time, so he is cooking most of the time-plans meals-delicious, healthy and gorgeous to look at! Walks with me through the park after work-and is a wonderful father to our boys. I am blessed.0

He is amazing, my rock, my everything!
what does your spouse do that is amazing? brag about em. good karma baby
You have every right to brag:) My boyfriend has no weight problem whatsoever but he understands that without his help and support that I couldn't really do this on my own. He has been awesome! He will send me supportive texts when I'm at work or call to tell me he is so proud of me and tells me he knew I could do it! When we are together he doesn't munch on junk food because he knows it's way too tempting:)0 -
Now this ia a nice thread and OP the two of you are so lucky to have found each other!
Well my hubby is super nice and I love him dearly and the other day I was doing laundry and hanging up our clothes which was a mountain pile of clothes, anywho he asked if he could help me and I usually say, no I got it, but this time I said yeah its alot of clothes and he actually stayed there in the closet and helped me hang up our clothes.
I also wanna say that my hubby is an awesome father, he is always there for the kids and takes their education seriously, he taught me to expect more from our kids and they both ended this school year with A,B honor roll!! ))0 -
Wow! what a wonderful thread.
You are very lucky.0
