Carefully worded compliments from the hubby - Phentermine.com

wannabeabigloser · May 17th, 2006, 12:11 PM

The other day my husband and I were hugging and then he rubbed up and down on my sides. He said "All your...stuff..is disappearing! I never noticed it was there before but now that it's not there it feels a lot different."

I just thought it was funny how he worded it because I know he doesn't want me to think I was unattractive before or anything. I also think part of the reason he isn't trying to make too huge of a deal about it, is in case I end up gaining some weight back-he wouldn't want me to feel like he found me more attractive now, weighing less.

I didn't tell him but what he felt was my waist. It's finally coming back! lol Before I starting losing I had no waist anymore - my waist area was a straight line down even with my shoulders and then curved out for my love handles. Now it curves in a bit and goes back out. Yay!

But anyway, I was wondering how your significant others have reacted/commented on your weightloss.

I started at 173 and this morning was 154.5 so 18.5 pounds so far. It was a few pounds ago that he made that comment. It's so nice not to feel like cringing when he touches me anymore (from ME feeling gross about myself, not because he's gross or anything, lol)

lol...well Ms. Mark can come tell you herself but the first way is when hugging me..she can lock her hands around me and now can grab her wrists. Plus when she cuddles up to me in bed she can feel the difference by how her arms rests on me..lol. As my stomach gets smaller and smaller I'll grab her hand and have her feel how sunken it is...lol.

Non-scale victories (NSV) are the best sometimes! Congrats!

I TOLD MY HUBBY TODAY THAT I'VE LOST 12LBS SO FAR. HE TOLD ME THAT I NEEDED TO STOP TAKING "THOSE" PILLS BECAUSE HE DOESN'T WANT ME GETTING ALL SKINNY. HOW CUTE...CAUSE I'M FAR FROM SKINNY.

well the first compliment was that my shoulders were getting thin. (wasnt too thrilled with that one) then about a week ago he mentioned that he could reach around me a lot easier. he doesnt say a lot bc he thinks if I gain it back he doesnt want to hurt me. ya know? but he has always said that my size never has bothered him. hmmm don't know about that one.
either way the compliments are great!!!

wifey still says i'm way too fat, etc.. but thats another story...i.e. see my buddy board that no one ever responded to.. etc. (i let it slip that i posted a pic and got some complements see laughed and said she couldnt believe it)

wannabeabigloser · May 17th, 2006, 06:51 PM

Phenlander, I just responded to you at the buddy board.

roogirl · May 17th, 2006, 07:21 PM

Phenlander....I am so sorry no one responded to you on the buddy board. I actually only visit this board myself.
I am also sad to hear that your wife still thinks you are *fat* because you are NOT. My goodness, look at YOU. And you only weigh 185. I don't know how tall you are....but, I think you look really good. Does she want you to be skin and bones???

Anyways, yes, men can say some funny things at times. Gotta love them though.

lovnlife · May 17th, 2006, 08:04 PM

phenlander...I'm not going to comment on the wifey thing...but does she wear glasses?! Maybe you can get her some lasik or something.

You look great! And don't let anyone, wifey or otherwise, tell you differently!

phenlander · May 18th, 2006, 12:49 PM

and to roogirl.. now that i think of it you're probably right.. i tend to be a whiny,*** at times. but still a hopefully funny whiny, ***
