I'd be thrilled if my DH bought me a gym membership!

DH and I had a special work out routine for two months: sex 3times/week, swimming 1:30 hrs 3times/week. I lost 25 pounds, he lost 29 and look younger than ever.

She should be grateful for having a husband who cares about her. It's a great motivation to change her life quality. I can talk to her, I'd you need it.

Workout, workout, workout, HULK WIFE SMASH HUSBAND!

As a wife whose DH has helped me lose weight, I wouldn't start with the gym if she hasn't already expressed interest. It is very intimidating for those of us who are very out of shape. Suggest family walks after dinner first, and then you could suggest you BOTH walk on the treadmill at the gym on rainy days. If weight is the issue, I'd also suggest you learn some healthy recipes. The key is being there with her while she gets started. DH went to Weight Watchers with me and after a couple of months I didn't need him there anymore, but it was good to have the support in the beginning.

With a personal trainer AND a series of massages. Work out with her on a regular basis, like join her for the class she's best at, or for a chunk of cardio where you guys get to catch up or share some trash tv.

Shit. Marry me. I'd love that sort of gift and yes, I am way out of shape. I used to work out all of the time. If my DH arranged babysitting and everything so that I had the room and energy to workout, I'd really appreciate it.

Add in a gift certificate at Lulu Lemon.

The family membership is a great idea. Seems a little less like you are sending a message.

I think I would have worked out more if my husband let me use that as time away from the kids. If she works all day, offer to let her go as you look after the kids. If she is at home with the kids all day -- let her go while you look after the kids.

If your kids are already older, you are probably more screwed…lol.

She could get into amazing condition, fall in love with her trainer, run away with him, drain your savings account, but a sail boat and circumnavigate the world.

Oh wait ... forget it. That's what happened to me. Your life will probably be different. She'll probably slim down, have more energy and rock your world in the bedroom like never before.

My ex did, but he knew I loved to workout and we had just moved to a new city, I was about 15 lbs overweight. I loved that he thought about that.

Guess I'm in the minority but I would be thrilled, as long as DH had some plan for childcare so that I could actually go!

What do you mean... is his wife on a budget that he controls... if she wants a membership she will get one.

"What's the Worst that Could Happen if I Bought my Wife Toilet Paper for her Birthday"

this is NOT a gift!

Are you really that dense or do you just play dumb on the inter webs?

I'll buy my h penis enlargement in return.

Go with a family membership to a gym with childcare, no jury would convict.
