Bless your heart!! It IS bad when you need to have your marriage in a good place so you have a safe, loving retreat from the rest of the world and it is just another cause of stress. I have been there for years. I hope you two can grow and learn how to meet each others needs. Melissa is right on with her suggestion. Men and women are wired so different. It just seems like women are the only ones really interested in finding out how to make it all work, or maybe thats just my marriage, heehe! I hope you are successful in finding ways to deal with stress!

I agree, stress is so bad for us! It can definitely can cause weight gain and even worse... health problems! Sorry you're going through so much stress right now, but hopefully it all gets better in a few weeks.

I was thinking that age too might have alot to do with it. I never had a problem with my weight until I got married, I was 25. After I hit 25, it seems like every year it becomes harder to keep this dumb weight off.

Hi there, i found your blog through your comment on It all began with a man in a back jeep.

I think you're right. Stress can make it hard to lose weight. I also know i gained a lot when I first got married. You body goes through changes and marriage is a big change for sure!

Marriage is really hard. Have you ever read the book Love & Respect by Dr. Emerson Eggerichs? It's really good. It talks about how woman need love from their husbands and men need respect from their wives. And when we don't get/give that this crazy cycle starts and things can go down hill fast! I found the book on amazon and it came with a seminar dvd which is nice since my husband doesn't like to read!

Something a friend told me when i got married "it's not always perfect but what's not perfect is forgivable." We so need to learn to forgive each other and not hold things against our husbands. Most of the time i'm learning that he doesn't mean to be hurtful. We just see/think/view things differently.
