  • Very well written post and as a man I would like to say that most men that I know (myself included) do in fact like curves on a woman. Most men do NOT like stick figure women. I agree with you that the media tries to create absurd images of what beauty looks like...

  • My wife and I are both on here as well. I have lost about 25 lbs and she has lost about 15 lbs. It feels great to have support from your partner and give them support when they need it. Glad to hear there are other couples out there having success together!!

  • Everyone is different. I think the most common is probably 5 days a week with 2 days off but thats definetly not the case for everyone. Just remember that if you push yourself too hard and strain or pull a muscle or any other injury, you could be rehabbing an injury for a week or 2. An extra day off here and there is a LOT…
