I'm having the opposite problem as zevarai. My husband just told me he is embarassed to be with me. Either the weight goes or he goes. This has been a serious blow to my self-esteem and could use some advice/support.

How shallow and superficial of him to demand such a thing! There are some underlying issues here that HE needs to deal with here. Using your weight as an excuse is a copout. You cannot lose weight until YOU are ready. You have to do it for yourself or you will fail. Trust me! I have tried! You guys need to sit down and have a talk or sit down with your pastor or a counselor!

In the meantime, start making small changes FOR YOURSELF and YOUR happiness...little steps lead to big results!

Good luck!!!

My advice - throw him out and lock the door.

I've got two areas going on the board and I guess I need to quite duplicating myself. In a nutshell, thank you for listening! My husband and I had a long talk, and while we have a lot of work to do, I think it is going to be fine. I'm focusing on myself and doing this the right way, this time around.
