Just wanted to encourage those of you that would like have your spouse join you on your weight loss journey. My husband and I started using this website together, and in the process we have both lost over 50 pounds. He has been a TREMENDOUS help and support to me, and I know that getting healthy has brought us closer. It has been so exciting to get healthy as a couple, and to see both of our lives change!!!

I'm hoping that my pictures post below... I can never seem to get it right. Here's what I did: http.....jpg If they don't post, can someone please tell me what I'm doing wrong? Thanks!

    Two years ago we lost 70lbs total for both of us and just recently started this a few weeks ago, not working at it together as much and that is a bad thing because then one person gets accused of being the diet police, typically me, when I ask why didn't log in, and that makes me an insensitive @#$%# . So I don't say much anymore and just hope we can be an example for each other, if I do good maybe she will and vice versa!

    Good for you (and Hubby)!

    And those of you who haven't got your man off the couch, don't despair. My husband wasn't very encouraging in the beginning. At one point, he even openly attacked my efforts. But I kept doing what I was doing, and he suddenly decided to try it for himself. We work out together now, and it's the most fun we've had as a couple in a long time.

    My husband started running with me and now he is on MFP with the nickname 'Fatchair'.

    I am currently enjoying watching him pump iron in the living room P90 Arms & Shoulders <fans herself>

    My husband and I are losing weight together , we joined the gym together and he goes with me like every other night during the week and Saturdays , he is not as into as I am , I joined this but sent him a request to join with me and he won't , Also he won't count his calories but had changed his eating a little , as for me , I am obsessed with this website (as he calls it) I track all my food and exercise , I work out 2 hours a day with one rest day , I have lost 13 pounds so far , him 3 and it will be a month for us this Thursday !

    You both look fantastic!! My hubby and I lost a total of 110 pounds together. Then, I got pregnant and we both gained (me 47 and him 10) I had my angel and am ready to lose these leftover 28 pounds and he's ready to lose his ten again. I can't imagine doing this without his support. Glad to see another couple supporting each other. Congrats!

    My husband and I jointed MFP together 30 days ago. I don't think either of us would be successful had the other not been willing to make these life changes as well. Congrats to you and yours. It does become a little frustrating watching him lose at a much faster rate, but just knowing he is there for me makes it all worth it. :wink:
