[quote=Anonymous]I’m current.y the overweight spouse. I havent read the mother responses, because I want this to be “my” response.

I used to be super fit, and was for most of our relationship. I walked about 5 mi the morning of my scheduled c section. And then, I fell apart. We moved, and the cLimate, plus a child, plus a whole bunch of other things have put me overweight. I’m trying but I feel so overwhelmed right now.

For me, the most important thing is time. Give me time. His job is more flexible, but I watch DD and WAH. I don’t get out for walks, etc. Like I used to be able to. I’d love if he would jut take her, bathe her, etc. So my time to myself could be exercise, etc. Usually it’s a quick shower before I make dinner.

Support me when I ask to set the treadmill up again, or whatever. I know I don’t get out to walk anymore. The least I could do is work on the treadmill like I used to while DD naps. Every little counts.

Try new foods. I’m not asking him to love paleo or whatever, but at least be open to me making meals (I do 100%of the cooking), when I try to adapt them to be healthier. To be truthful, he is great, but his dietary needs are different and it’s a constant balance.

Please still tell me you love me, no matter how bad I look. I need to know that I’m still important to someone. This wasn’t my intention, but I’m trying to find my way back. If I feel it doesn’t matter because you’ve lost all interest in me, then it’s disheartening. I love you despite your flaws, which may not be weight, but are significant to me in other ways. [/quote]
