If this is the case, both of you should continue counseling and learn how to communicate. No advice you find on an internet forum is going to give you the magical answer you are looking for. It will only work if you are both 100% dedicated and committed to making it work. Otherwise, things won't change.

I was in a similar situation...started dating at 14 years old, married at 18. Unfortunately, he starting abusing me in a multitude of ways when I was only 15...I stayed for a million wrong reasons. He was always the perfect boyfriend/husband in front of other people...and then one day about a year and a half into the…

B!tchin' sunglasses! :smile:

I am not proud of the fact that I have fallen for more than one get-thin-quick program/scheme...even on the couple that worked, I gained it all back (and then some, more often than not). I am refusing to go down that route again....this time, it will be slow-and-steady-wins-the-race. I'm impatient, so it kills me some…

I had a BodyMedia band before and lost it in a move. I liked it, but I was hoping to upgrade to something that could either sync to my phone or computer without needing to be plugged in or something that had a screen that shows the info. I may just order a new one....but my other issue was that you have to subscribe to…

Thanks, No_Finish_Lin....I was looking at the FitBit, too. Neither really have very good ratings from what I've found... I'm working out without one, it would just be nice to have the info...

This coming December will be our 4th trip to Disney in 10 years and I plan to allow myself room. We get the dining plan, so I eat what is offered, and try to choose the healthier options. With the amount of walking that you will be doing, I really wouldn't worry that much about it. Don't go completely crazy, but enjoy…

Inappropriate is one of the best words used to describe me! Add away! :smokin:

Wow! Such an inspiration! Thank you for sharing!

I was with a man a lot like this for a lot of years. It escalated into physical abuse over his unfounded and overblown accusations. I agree with a previous reply that his lack of willingness to make changes is the biggest red flag. If you are set on staying, I would suggest individual and couples counseling. Just my two…

I may have to look into the guided meditations. A friend of mine mentioned them but I can never turn my mind off and am doubtful...but I'll look into it and see! Thanks, weblur!

Hey Joe, my issue is more that I can't fall asleep. Once I'm asleep I'm pretty much staying that way. I do watch TV in bed occasionally, but not a lot. I'm just very restless. Unfortunately, I don't feel rested EVER...I'm tired all day but then can't fall asleep at night. I really wish that I could fall asleep in 2…

Can I join you if I'm only doing the workout program and not the eating plan (yet)?? I was planning to start tomorrow, but am not following the diet just yet.

Hi, Sway! I'm also a returning MFPer...I was here for quite a while and left for almost a year! I'm the mom of 2 boys in NC and would love to help in any way I can, if you want to add me!
