Just wondering. I have not been told by the husband that he is jealous but can tell from his actions at times. I find that he is not grabbing my fat as much anymore. THANK GOD! But every time I tell him what weight I am at he sounds as if he is upset slightly. He is slowly losing too but he is not following the eating plan or the working out like I am. He works out about 4 times a week maybe. I am working out almost everyday. I love it!!

Well, I'm not married. But everytime I update my Dad on my weight loss...LOL...he goes out to the bowflex and works out for an hour! I think its hilarious.
I think he used to be up the the 350-400 range and he is a very very healthy weight now. But I dont think he realises that he has such a large framed body, and is upset by that. A couple of years ago he lost too much weight and looked down right sickly, it really scared me and my Mom.
Enjoy your success you earned it...

It is not fun huh? Well you would hope the jealousy would turn into motivation but no on my end. He will be motivated once his butt gets into the police academy.

That's rediculous. I think he's bummed that you're doing so much better than him, and maybe for the extra attention and confidence that comes with it.

She doesn't exactly complain but I can tell by her comments that she resents the time I get to go and workout.
I can't blame her, I work 12 hour shifts 5, sometimes 6 days/nights a week and we have 3 young kids. She also works in a school and so I know she works very hard looking after us all 
However, I do treat her with flowers on occasions and I have given her extra $$ to get her hair done recently (why does it cost so damn much for a woman to get her hair done  ).

Enjoy your success you earned it... | Maybe you should tell him every day you lost another 1/8 of a pound so he keeps working out.   Quote:
