Before I had my son, I was a perfect size 8. I loved my body and myself. Needless to say I packed on a few pounds during pregnancy and afterwards. I have been struggling since then to lose my baby weight and then some. What came to me naturally before child seems to be a burden to me now. It is so hard to get into a routine, anyway in the past couple of months for some reason it has become more of an issue for my husband. So I have been trying a little harder now to get back into shape, especially now that I am at home. In the past two weeks I have lost 5 pounds, upon telling my husband of my weight loss he repiled "good, now just 35 pounds more". Ok what the hell is that, is that just a total loss of ....manners...ignorance..or what? Is this the way men encourage? That can not be so, they can not be that dumb. (Sorry to all men reading). He does not even try to help me out by taking care of the baby, while I exercise. For the past nine months he has been paying $45 a month to go to a gym he has gone to probably only about 9 times. But he will not allow me to go, even though I could go nearly everyday, you know get good use out of the $45. I just do not get it, he wants me to lose weight, yet will not help me out with child or gym. What the hell is wrong witht his picture?!!

    WOW girl sounds like you have it coming from every side except yours!! I guess I have a few questions though sitting here trying to understand just what is going on...... how long ago did u have your son? how long have you all been married? How is it that he can tell you whether you are or arent allowed to go to the gym? Let me know would love to chat with you about this all!! But look without the answers to these questions I still will tell you you need to decide what makes YOU happy!! Are you comfortable with the few extra pounds? I had my first child at 16 and am now 27 so you can guess that I will never look as I did before having kids but I am SOOO happy!!!

    Well I have never really commented on a comment of my blog so I hope you get this. Do not know how it works. Anyway. My son is now 2 yrs. old (june 22).We have been married now for three years, and the only reason I am not really fighting the whole not being able to go the gym issue is because I know we do not really have the money to be spending on these sort of things.I have urged him to go, because he works in a factory that requires some heavy lifting, and like I told him it would be good for him to exercise and be fit for his job. And no I am not comfortable with my weight, all my life i have been very fit and right before my pregnancy I was in the best shape of my life. I always feel so sluggish and I hate it. Thanks for the comment, chat me up.
