Hubby Came Home From War , Crisis Happened and I Stopped Doi

YOU CAN DO THIS!!!
I have a friend that told me today her BF didnt want her to lose anymore and she still does! I told her to do what makes her happy and healthy.
Good luck!

You can do it! Like you said do this for you, NOONE ELSE! Your darn right you can reverse anything and YOUR the only one who has the power to do it! Good Luck to you!

Oh my gosh...I can't imagine what you are feeling and what you're going thru!? Please take care of you!!! First and foremost. You will able to care of others SO much better if you are taking care of YOU! This has been my story for most of my life - putting everyone else in front of me....No MORE!!!! Finally!
Much luck to you!

Couldn't agree more, You need to take care of yourself first, it may seem selfish, but how are you going to care for others if you aren't healthy yourself!!! ((hugs))

i'm sorry i don't know why he wouldn't like it!!

Ok I am also an Army Wife and I understand how easy it is to put them before us…it seems to be the norm actually and what they seem to expect because we always have to put the military first no matter what. That being said these tips below were just sent out by hubbies BN thought I would share.

I am sorry that he is not happy about you losing weight…that hurts my heart I have no idea what has happened to him for you to be at his bedside for the past two months and I can only imagine. Maybe just maybe he is worried that you will leave him because of whatever shape he is on or he is just angry about him being in bed and not able to express himself.

That being said take care of yourself…take an hour to walk workout etc. make yourself feel like you and that way you can be the best you that you can be which will lead to you being the best wife that you can be. Just my two cents

Taking Care of Yourself

5. Potential Daily Schedule (24 Hours divided into thirds)

-8 Hours for sleeping ?? Maybe less
-8 Hours for working + + maybe more
-8 Hours for everything else which might include the following: Bill paying;

Household chores .
OUT OF THESE 8 HOURS IT IS IMPORTANT TO CARVE OUT SOME TIME
FOR YOURSELF,---- HOBBY TIME

EVEN IF ONLY FOR 15 MINUTES.

wow, oh how I can relate this you. My husband loved my full figured body, thats his prefer body type. So when I started my lifestyle change and started to lose the weight, it was a huge issue for our marriage. But I continued on and along the way he has just had to accept my new body. I had to stop my family history of heart diease and diabetes, as I was approaching 37 and just had my last baby, I couldn't imagine having a heart attack in my mid 40's like my father and he also developed diabetes at the age of 38. that was my motivator. And of course my hubby loves my new body now and loves to see me try on clothes and tell me am "HOT". Hang in there and you can do it!:flowerforyou:
