[quote=Anonymous]While I think it was mean of your husband to say that to you OP about your weight, I think he just said a dumb thing and was being a drunk jerk that evening.

Unless he is continuing berating you for your weight, etc., I wouldn't necessarily say your marriage is on the line here.

Sure, it wasn't too kind what he said, but it is forgivable as long as he apologizes and doesn't say it again.

I myself know how tough it is to lose the extra lbs. especially as you get older.

First of all, are you on any medications, I.e., anti-depressants, etc.? If so, losing weight may be a huge challenge as certain medications actually cause weight gain.

If you can afford to, I would try to sign up for one of those diet programs that deliver food to your door. That way, it would be hard to resist. Perhaps Jenny Craig or Medifast?

Regarding exercise, it would be wonderful if you could have a daily walking buddy to keep you motivated. A neighbor, a co-worker, maybe a sister?? Drive somewhere scenic such as a beautiful lake or perhaps take up hiking on weekends. If there is something pretty to look at, then it will give you more incentive to want to get out and about.

Good luck to you.[/quote]
