Let me ask if anyone else is going through this and what you would do. My husband last night told me that I am too thin and he is worried about me. I do not know where this came from. My last appointment my blood work was great, I feel great and I do not think I look sickly. I asked him if he thought I looked bad, he said no, so I said wha is the problem? He just keep saying I'm worried about you, you should gain 20 pounds! Huh! What the heck is going on? I weigh in at 128 but I'm short only 5 foot, so by all accounts I am "normal" I am big boned so I do not hink I should lose anymore weight just maintain, but I don't know how to react to this, any suggestions.

yes i get the same thing.. they are not use to seeing us thinner number one and because we lost so fast our bodies still need time to do the shift thing.. just do what u feel comfortable with and it will be ok. maintaining is a good thing.. congrats on your success..

Disregard what the spouse says and go by how you feel. Do you think you are too thin? Does he see you eat so that he knows you are consuming? Relax, you may just need to let the rest of the family get used to you now. Be Well, ANDI

Eileen, I am sooooo glad you posted this! Last night my husband told me he liked me better when I was bigger. He thinks I'm getting too thin and that I act different now and he doesn't want me to lose any more weight. I weigh 170 right now and I'd like to lose another 10-15 pounds. He is really angry at me if I even mention losing more. And I find that he keeps trying to sabotage me; like bringing home brownies or Easter candy. I honestly don't have any suggestions because I don't know what to do either! I like being smaller and healthier! And the only thing that has changed about my personality is that I'm more confident and slightly more willing to try new things. To me, there is nothing wrong with that! I think they just need time to adjust to the new us! Deanna
