Why are men such pigs!!!!

Having a conversation with my bf of almost 7 years about why we weren't engaged!!! I'm 31' date=' he's 33! And He actually said 'but jess over the last year you have been putting on so much weight' as a defence for my ringless finger dde30dde33

Omigosh. Toss him back!! 7 years & THAT'S the best excuse he's got!? Sounds like Peter Pan Syndrome to me. Boy can't sy what it really is. Either that, or he's a giant doucher.

I recently read some study that said most couples get engaged between 2y6m & 4y2m...I'm currently at 3y2m...& no engagement but we've talked abt it. Our excuses have to do w/insta-family & baggage, not fatness. If that was the case, I could pull the "u so fat" card on him bc he's been about 50# "happier" since we met. ;} not that I would...I barely noticed.

I was with my ex-boyfriend for over 7 years. One of his many excuses for us not getting engaged was because of my weight. Meanwhile, he looked like he was about 9 months pregnant. I finally realized that my weight was not the problem. HE was the problem. Dumping him was the best thing I ever did for my self-esteem.

Edited to add:

While it was definitely the best move I ever made, it was also the hardest. But, once I got past the initial shock of making such a big life change and started working on myself, I became forever grateful that I made the decision to leave.

I think johnlatte's idea of telling him that you have found a miraculous cure where you lose 200 lbs in one day is a good one.

If you aren't ready to step away despite what seem like very clear signs to other people, I kind of get it. My self esteem has been in the crapper before and I've had a bad relationship or two as a result. I think moving on is the right decision - but you have to feel ready.

What is most important - hold off on any talk of marriage. Because you are about to lose weight and have a seriously hot bod and new outlook on life. And the negativity that you accepted from this man in the past - you will not accept it in the future. You will have an enhanced self esteem from taking charge of your health, your future, your body, and your fitness. There will be no room for his behavior in your future, and you won't be able to forget how he treated you in the past.

So, please, for your own sake - don't marry the guy!

      Hi everyone, I wrote back in May about having no strength. I still get totally exhausted just walking from room to room, it’s so bad I’m using a walker with wheels of all things. I had the gastric sleeve Jan. 24th. I’m doing exactly what the programs says, except protein shakes. I have different meats and protein bars daily, including vitamins daily. I do drink my fluids as well.  I go in for IV hydration 4 days a week and feel ok just til evening.  So far as of Jan 1st I’ve dropped 76 lbs. I just want to enjoy the weight lose. Any suggestions or has anyone else gone thru this??  Doctor says just increase calorie intake, still the same.

      Losing my hair in clumps and still dealing with "stomach" issues from gallbladder removal surgery. On the positive side I'm doing better about meeting protein and water goals and taking my vitamins, so yay? 🤷‍♀️

      I've hit a stall 9 months out. I'm not worried, though. My fitness levels continue to improve and I have nearly accomplished my pre-surgery goal of learning to scuba dive! One dive left to complete to get my PADI card 🐠
      I was able to go for a 10K/6mile hike in the mountains two days ago just for the fun of it. In the before days, I might have attempted this, but it would have taken me 7 or 8 hours to complete and I would have been exhausted and in pain for the next two days. Taking my time with breaks for snacks and water, I was finished with my wee jaunt in only 4 hours 😎 and really got to enjoy photographing some insects, fungi, and turtles.
