I have only been working out for about 6 weeks. I have lost 16.5 pounds and still have a lot of toning and strength building to do. That said, I was dancing around to get some cardio in and my husband came home from work for something. He saw me dancing around doing my thing, (actually smiling and having a good time) proceeds to say:
"Wow, um, Shan, what have you been doing cause you really can not tell, you need to try something else if you want to be ready for a bikini."
Wth?! Yea so many other ways to say that! I am NOT working out and dieting for him, I am doing this for me and to make me feel good about me! Ooooooo I am soo angry! :explode:

    men are dumb - he was trying to be constructive & helpful and .... FAIL!!!

    just chalk it up to a Y chromosome issue and move on.

    Not fair and untrue!

    "Wow, um, Shan, what have you been doing cause you really can not tell, you need to try something else if you want to be ready for a bikini."

    good response would have been: "keep talking like that and I might feel so self conscious that someone might not see me naked for a while." then glare

    Prove him wrong. I would shove it in his face once you succeed. But don't let it get to ya. Men will be men. Sometimes they speak before they think. In all honesty, he probably didn't mean to say it like it came out.

    Girl you just keep in mind what you just said... you are NOT doing this for him,,, your doing it for YOU... and he needs to be more supportive and positive for you and your hard work... No matter what, God doesnt make trash and you are beautiful in whatever size you are... Keep up the good work and show him how bad a** you are!

    HAHAHAHAHA!!!

    I am NOT laughing at you, but at his stupidity!!! Next time he says something like just say something like "well my boyfriend thinks I am sexy no matter what." and leave his mouth hanging! Just kidden. That is what I do with my husband but we have a joking loving relationship :)

    I am sure he didn't mean it. Does he work out himself? He prob was not thinking before talking. My fiance does the same thing. Just relax and shrug it off...it's all about how you see yourself. Congratson the weight loss.

    I'd want t rip his cohonies off! I'm glad I got divorced...my ex was so negative about my body and weight. It's why I love MFP...everyone is so supportive of each other. *hugs*

    So glad my hubby can tell a difference (even if I barely can) and tells me that.

    Not cool....

    16 pounds in 6 weeks is AMAZING! I'd be annoyed too! (If it helps, I've lost over 35 pounds. Guess whose husband has not said ONE word? I think I'd prefer that to what yours said though! I am mad at him right along with you!)

    My ex-boyfriend told me onetime to not stand on the step to get into the bathtub b/c I was "bigger" girl and the step would break. I nearly died from humilation and wanted to kill him at the sametime. So glad he is my ex now. Honestly my current guy could care less if I were 400lbs or 120lbs as long as at the end of each day we are together. Its so nice to have support no matter what.
