As soon as I mention I'm trying to get fitter, home come the donuts, chocolate etc. He has a fairly low self image and I think he feels threatened by this and feels a lot safer having an overweight, unfit wife rather than an awesome, toned one (I wish). >> I really do believe some insecure men prefer fat wives and that my first husband was such a man. Yes, I ate cuz it was my only pleasure in life. I lost all of the weight I had gained in my first marriage towards the end of it with low carbs and joining a gym. I probably looked better at 25 then than I ever did in my life. It did nothing for his libido. It didn't help how he treated me cuz I was still the last rung on the ladder of his priorities. BUT I think taking control of my body back then, let me take control of my life so I left him after 4 years of feeling like a piece of furniture. My second and present husband never held the weight gained with 2 kids against me but seems to be enjoying the renewed interest in sex it has been bringing. Don't know about you guys but I believe toning and getting energized is a heck of an aphrodisiac. Barb who loves chocolate too so has a small taste daily letting it melt in my mouth and savoring every second Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
