[quote=Anonymous]Ever since my DD was born 2.5 years ago, I have not been able to lose the 40 pounds I gained during pregnancy and DH has gained 20.  We used to be active and cook healthy meals, only drink alcohol during the weekend, go out for sushi or to restaurants with healthy food options.  Now, we are so exhausted and stressed, that we don't make time for exercise and have pizza, Thai and Chinese on speed dial.  We buy healthy foods at the beginning of the week and half of it goes bad because we're too tired to cook when we get home and frequently also buy lunch rather than make the time to pack lunch.  I've always been a stress eater and working full time and having a kid are kicking my ass.  How do we get to a point where we motivate each other to exercise and make consistently good choices?  Right now, we're enabling each other because one of us will say I feel like pizza and the other one will give in because we don't feel like cooking.  Or when there are brownies at a work meeting, I no longer resist.  Instead I eat 3.  It is not a good path to continue on but it is so hard to get back on track.[/quote]
