    I care about everything (sans fat & ignorant people). That's why my life is insanely awesome. :D

    I think you should stick with the Rate Me threads.

    1/10. Would not bang.

    I'd love to meet some of you people in real life. It would definitely be a trip.

    I'm cool with all the insults. After all, if people like you didn't have the interwebz ... there'd be virtually no social interaction. Except maybe with your clinical psychologist, or proctologist.

    Have fun. I'm off to eat sushi and watch a Keanu Reeves movie.

    Sounds like you lost some weight and think you're too good for him now.

    If you ruin things with your husband, have fun on the divorcee dating market.

    There is an old story about a divorce lawyer who tells a client who cannot afford the divorce to go home and spend three months treating the spouse the way they think they should be treated, do stuff for them, compliment them, talk, flirt, date, touch, hold hands, be the best friend and lover they can be and then in 3 months come back and if they still want the divorce the lawyer would do it for free.

    In three months the person called the lawyer back and said they saved the marriage, as they started doing all of these things for the spouse the spouse then started treating them the same way, with love and respect. They rekindled what they had in the beginning and no longer wanted a divorce.

    My opinion, Say nothing about this to him. It's not your husbands problem, it's yours. Start by figuring out what the real problem is and work on that first. Work on you and your commitment to him. Then if you feel like his weight really is an issue you can talk about that in a loving way with him. Tell him you are concerned about his health and that you want him to be around for your child.

    I completely agree with this one.

    There's a worthwhile message in there that's similar to what's in the book "His Needs, Her Needs". I know I said it before, but I really urge you to read it! It discusses the different emotional needs that men & women have and how important they are to an all-around satisfying relationship.

    It's a heck of a lot cheaper than therapy, and a great place to start educating yourself.

    A trying time in your life?

    Don't even go there.

    I have lupus, a debilitating disease. It's a struggle for me to even get out of bed, let alone work out. Or cook. Or be in a good mood. But I do all of these things for my husband. Nearly every damn day.

    You've gone on and on about how great your husband is and how wonderful your life is with him. So ... if you don't have depression, or some other kind of mental illness, then you are a truly ego maniacal woman. You have so much to be thankful for, stop your *****ing and moaning and enjoy your loved ones.

    Please stop making the rest of us 23 year olds look like immature know-it-alls.

    This isn't the Real Housewives of Atlanta, and you most certainly aren't NeNe.

    I've never even spoken to you, wtf? I guess I'm just that much fun to argue with.

    That annoying as **** animation makes no sense, considering this is a site dedicated to fitness and being healthy. And also considering I ate Popeyes twice this weekend ... although I did have lettuce on my crawfish po' boy.

    I think the issue doesn’t lie so much with your husband, as it does with the way you perceive your husband. He was good enough to get your engine going when you were dating, and I'm guessing even after pregnancy and all the havoc that wrecked on your body he still finds you absolutely attractive.
    I think its fantastic that you have made positive changes in your life that will most definitely improve your health, but I think you're making sex more of a mental activity than it should be. Passion and great sex aren't contingent on your physical appearance. If that were the case you would have had these issues with your sex life from the start with your husband. Instead of focusing on what he looks like, why not close your eyes and focus on how he is making you feel? Stop over-thinking his appearance and just let go and let your body respond naturally. Have a few drinks and loosen up. Try to make sex more of a game than just an act. Take your brain out of the equation and just have fun and enjoy yourself.
    Whatever you do, DO NOT tell your husband you don’t find him attractive. That will not help anything.

    I would like to think its just a rough patch in the marriage or you are just bored of him(could happen after being together for many years together for a few people) and renew your attraction towards him in some way. How about going away from him for a few days, visit friends/family and see if you start missing him sexually?
    I know when i was away from my hubby for 4 months once, i jumped on him as soon as he entered home LOL

    Having a baby totally changes things in a marriage and you would need to work really hard the initial few months/years.
    You say he is your best friend, so i guess it would be best to talk it out with him. I hope he does not take it too hard though.
    For e.g: My husband is my best friend too and you would not believe the bluntness i share with him. I tell him everything, if i dont like something, i like something. If he feels bad, i know how to calm him down too as we have known each other so well :)
    good luck and :flowerforyou:

    :huh:

    I wasn't referring to your lupus.

    I'm referring to all the marriage advice, and now apparently fat-shaming that you're doing.

    ETA: I also have chronic health issues. But it doesn't make me cool and I don't run around on the forums trying to solicit sympathy from complete strangers.

    Serious response for the OP:

    Pick up a copy of the Love Dare, and try it out with your husband. It's a great book and I've seen it do wonders for suffering relationships.

    You are extremely hostile. Please leave. You don't have anything valid to offer. Didn't you say you were going to watch a movie?

    Yes and please stop making those of us who have debilitating illnesses look like we are completely lacking in compassion.
