My hubby and I had a fight….back to business now!
Okay so since returning from vacation I’ve been taking care of everyone my niece, my mom, my little niece KIA and everyone else for that matter. I have gained 6 pounds (and it’s not the end of the world) or so it is according to my husband! He claims I am so pre-occupied with everyone that I am letting myself go - LETTING MYSELF GO!!! First of all; I lost this weight for me not for anyone else and regardless to what he thinks I am not letting myself go. Okay I didn’t get my hair done for a few weeks and I haven’t walked or exercised for two but hey I’ve had to deal with my family and if it were his he would do the same. Well you know when he starts talking that mess it just pushes me to do more. He is a wonderful husband don’t get me wrong but LETTING MYSELF GO!! Anyway I already said at the end of the month I was getting back to business I didn’t need his two cents but now it’s on….I joined the 50 million pound challenge this morning and already devised a new workout plan to include tae-bo, curves and my treadmill. So we will see who is letting themselves go….ugh that made me so mad. I worked very hard and six pounds is nothing I can lose that in three days by exercising how dare he….well it’s back to buisness now! I can’t go to VEGAS because my little niece and I was really bummed about that but hey it’ll get better. Thanks for letting me vent buddies and I have missed you all tremendously and I assure you all by January 2008 he won’t know who I am 40+ pounds GONE!!!!!!

I’m definitely NOT going to defend your hubby, but in defense of all men who say stupid things, they USUALLY are trying to be helpful. Men are absolutely prone to saying things 100% wrong. They just do. If he knew it was important to you to lose weight, he might of just been concerned that you were distracted by everything going on and lost sight of your goal. I’ve known men that are just nasty, but overall, I think a loving hubby probably didn’t mean it like you think he did.
He obviously lit a fire under your butt, so can you really be that angry for the motivation boost?? You are back on track again!
Just saying, if you love hubby, always give him the benefit of the doubt! Good luck on your loss!
Oh I posted something so similar this morning!
You are doing soooo wonderfully….life sometimes gets in the way…as long as you get back on track that is all that matters.
I hope you have a great day.
Hey, Life happens, I know that for a fact! Don’t be so hard on yourself, I agree, he was prob trying to be helpful, but men sometimes just don’t get it. Hang in there!
I know how men can be. I have one myself…LOL But one thing I’ve learned about mine is, things might come out ugly when he’s trying to advise me but he really means to be helpful.
Don’t get me wrong, I still get upset even knowing this…LOL But I get over it and let him know, if he was just looking out for me, he could have been a little more careful with his words.
You will lose those 6 pounds, that is nothing compare to how far you’ve come. My husband wouldn’t get that either. Just get back into the game, you can do it girl!!!
Girl, now you know he was probably more referring to you not getting your hair done and stuff like that more than weight. i mena I am not defending him, but if there is one thing I have come to know about most Jamaican men, they liek us just as we are!! You gotta give him that, i think you even told me told you not to get skinny. I am not defending him and i agree with Beebee men are special!!!! I just think with you getting sick, he meant more you weren’t taking care of yourself like how you had been, or at east that is what you can tell yourself, but hey I take motivation from where ever it comes, good or bad!!! You just got to take it and make it good!!!
