Immature insensitive husband…
I have such an immature husband it’s infuriating.
I am 5 months postpartum… I love my baby to death. But like many I am not happy with my body. Before having kids I knew it would be an issue for me accepting the fact that I need to gain weight, then postpartum weight loss. Mind you I am coming from being really over weight as a teen and losing 70+ lbs in adulthood. I which I’m sure that the excessive amounts of works wasn’t any healthier. I’m sure I have some sort of mental body issue but I work through it everyday.
I’ve told my husband not to comment on my body or what I eat because it bothers me. He does not listen.
What I get:
- “You need to squat”
- “You still look pregnant”
- “You’re eating again?!” (Referring to the 2nd and 3rd meal WTF)
I know where my mind will retreat to and what I’ve been capable of putting my body through (ie starving, over-exercising, etc) I don’t need this shit I’m too old. But I feel my mind slipping back to old thought patterns. Worst part is I’ve told him all of this! It’s like he doesn’t care… which seem evil to me. He wasn’t always like this believe me I would have turned the other way at the first sign.
Don’t know if it’s a “foreign thing” or what. I don’t understand why you say something like that to some who is trying. I workout 4-5 times a week. Anyway it’s not like I’m looking for his approval. I don’t need his approval. I know what I’m capable of, what I looked like before and how to get my body back. I just need him to stfu before I lose my cool.
Thanks for letting me vent.
