[quote=Anonymous]Who knows if the OP is still around, but if he is, here are my two cents.

I would love to lose weight, though I don't have the same amount as OP's wife does.  I want to lose around 10 pounds, and try to figure out how to deal with my post-partum stomach which is not pleasant (I have a short torso so the baby pushed waaayy out, causing stretchiness).  I am so, so tired from being at work all day and then coming home and dealing with cleaning, laundry, etc.  Like tired to the bone.  I have talked to my husband about us both starting to exercise because I think we both need to be healthy for the kids.  This is what I think would help me despite my insane tiredness:  establish a routine.  If I knew that at 8:30 pm five nights a week I would go exercise, and that my DH had my back and encouraged me to do it, I think it would help a ton.  It is too easy to blow it off but if it is like an appointment, it might work better.  My husband and I are trying to set this up now, but I think it will be helpful.

Also, wine is your friend re: sex.  As I mentioned, my stomach is not that of a super model.  I am extremely self-conscious about it and hate it.  The thought of getting naked and exposing the stomach is super upsetting to me, which is my own self esteem issue.  This is one reason I really want to exercise in the hopes of helping my stomach.  But in the meantime, I will drink a glass of wine or two to loosen myself up and get my mind off my horrible stomach.  DH has not once said anything negative about my body, including my stomach, and has given me no reason to think he thinks it's awful, but I just find it so unpleasant myself.  Greasing the wheels with some wine helps me block out my self esteem issues and get down to business.
