    Being supportive and a cheerleader goes both ways. Sounds to me like you should be talking to her, in an open and honest way of how you are feeling and working to get an understanding of how she is feeling.

    Congrats on your life style change and weight loss! You wife sounds scared to death of loosing the new you, she's having difficulty relating. Get some professional help and remember what it was like when you were in her shoes.

    Hopefully he realized he sounded like a jackapple and is busy ordering flowers for his wife.

    Maybe she realized and filed for divorce. Smh

    okay...so you vented here. Please don't say those awful things to your wife. Don't let the confidence you've gained in getting control of your weight and reaching goals turn into arrogance and intolerance for those who yet to find the willpower to change.

    All of us married folks on here deal with our partners working against us at times..even our parents and loved ones do it. .. They feel threatened when someone close to them changes..it can be scary.. they can feel left behind.. or life isn't the same...and they also realize that they are stuck and they act out.

    just be sure you put as much effort into being kind and understanding of your wife as you do at tackling all your goals.

    100% this.
