How others benefit from WW when you are on it?
Today I want to dedicate a post to my husband. He isn't a overly tall man (works well for me cos I am short!), and has always been a healthy weight, but after we got married he found himself developing a belly. And so the belly complaining began. And then the pants complaining began. I had a look, and it was at "that point", where we would have had to buy all new pants at the next size up, OR things would have to change. So I said well why don't you join WW with me, and so he did.
Since then he hasn't been having bread with every meal, just eating the lovely WW meals I've been making (and I had been making all along!), and he has even been getting onto the exercise bike and riding while he is playing his xbox to relax (it's really funny, I'll have to take a pic sometime...). He has kicked the "but the donuts were on special!" habit that he had if I sent him down to woollies to get something - particularily at night when things have been reduced, and he hardly ever has fast food (which I have to say he LIVED off in the days when we were courting, and he was doing full-time work and part-time Uni). In fact, he had Chickos (his favourite! Used to be Hungry Jacks at uni...) the other weekend as a treat, and he doesn't even enjoy it like he did anymore!
Anyway, just on the weekend I noticed his belly is almost gone!! Its so exciting! He only had 6 kilos to get back to the top of the healthy weight range when he joined, and he is now 0.6kg off it!!
I have to say I may be a little jealous that he will have joined, hit goal and become a lifetime member before me. But I'll deal with it! Cos he looks so handsome... and we don't have to buy new pants! WOOHOOO!!
:)
As of yet I can't seem to find single supporting photo of his loss (he always seems to be behind me!), So I just thought I'd put a photo from our wedding on here (which was definately pre-belly!). I'll have a look for photos later and see what I can come up with!
Isn't he handsome?! I love him so much! :)

Hi Rae, looks good! you must be so proud of him, at least you know its achievable (if only I could talk my husband into doing it! )
Mel
he is a darling yes indeed.. just like YOU!
It is so cool that you were able to support him when he needed it, and he supports you the same way. You are both gorgeous. And whoo hooo for not having to buy new pants.
Have just checked out your posts below and will have to try out some of those recipes. Yummmm.
Have a great week Rae - hope you have something great planned for the long weekend. :)
How fab having him join you in WW! My husbands too thin - so weighing less than him has always been my goal (achieved now). You make a great pair!
