Though hubby still has plenty of weight loss remaining, he's started finding satisfaction in the amount of weight he can lift. That's the motivation to get to the gym.... Lift the weights, look how strong, and, well, we are already there, now let's just get that cardio out of the way also. XD ... Whatever works, right? I am pretty much at goal already and just fine tuning things to deal with my health stuff so I'm more focusing on helping him along. I'm the sweaty frizzy workout partner keeping things interesting and delivering compliments lol.

I'm in a similar situation, enjoying the 5x5 progression. I haven't hit failure yet, 6 weeks in (getting pretty close to failure on the g-d OH press), so it's very satisfying to lift more weight each time. My wife too, she squatted 100 pounds the other day and was so proud of herself!0

100, wow, she should be proud! That's awesome, props to her!0

Good for him! It's nice that he has you as a workout partner.0

I keep him motivated, he keeps me protected from bros hitting on me, works well.0

LOL... at my age you would think it wouldn't happen. Maybe they don't care and only think that a woman who works out has stamina for.... activities. lol. Well, I do, but that's only for the husband! *kicks bros in teh pants lol* XD0
