Trying to encourage my wife and get her back on track!
Hello, fellow eroid family. My wife and I had a baby girl on April 3rd. Its our third child. And all she keeps talking bout is getting back n shape and triming up her mid section. However, she is bugging the crap out of me to get her a prescription drug,dont know if im aloud to say it. But, it starts w an A. W out the prescription. A little background bout her and myself. She enjoys working out and being fit. She gave birth to my three beautiful kids. And she has absolutly no strecth marks. Luck I know. Im certified n nutrition and personal training but,am a crane operator for a living. She has good genetics and was a hooters girl through nursing school. I trained her for several hooters bikini competions which she won a couple and did really well in. Im try n to get her to diet right and start exerciseing again.
I have to turn myself n to do 30 days in jail for a dui on thursday. And im trying to get her moving n the right direction for when I get out. But, she is dead set on those stupid prescription pills. I honestly dont know what else to say to her. I know when she gets back at it she will b in shape and have her 6 pack back in no time. I just cant get her to listen. Advice please? We all know how stubborn women can b! Thx

I wasn't going to post on this but I saw a comment you made else where... Your wife is a nurse?? Does she not realize that if she is caught using stims that she doesn't have a script for she'll get fired and won't ever be able to work in the medical field again?
Very good point. Yes she is a nurse.I told her no. I honestly think. Her hormones r all outta whack from the pregnacy. She loves me one minute,the next she yelling at me the next minute etc...lol. I will def. Bring that to her attention. Thx
breakingfaceIt sounds to me like there are some significant underlying issues that need to be prioritized ahead of getting in shape.
For sure. I agree. Im trying to lift her up. But,its like banging my head into wall over and over again. She's very hard headed. I'll just keep at it I guess tillshe starts acting normal again. Hopefully,this will all blow over ! Im thinking post pardom depression maybe?
breakingfaceI'm not qualified to guess... but maybe you should get someone who is on board. Sooner rather than later is always advisable when dealing with the onset of any mental illness.
her hormones are ALL out of whack and will be for some time... I suggest if she wants to lose that fat and quickly she breast feed ... that baby will suck ALL the fat right off of her.. ...
Lol...she is breast feeding. Well,supplementing breast milk w formula. And her stomach is flat already. She is so lucky. She just keeps complaining bout her 6 pack. U cant even tell she had a baby. She's kill n me. Thx for the advice btw !
Can't breast feed on stimulants, and makes everyone i know on edge and impatient around kids. When I'm on stimulants i have less patience and have a harder time living up to my Superdad reputation.
Are u speaking of an A.D.D. type med?
Habit forming
Just remind her she looks better than 99% of new moms, and will have her body the way she wants it soon without them
Women hate to be told NO,so just stall her
Tell her you'll talk about it only after u do your 30 days because your not ok with that while your gone and make her promise to wait.
Hopefully that will buy enough time to change her mind
breakingfaceNo one asks for recreational drugs to get in shape. Her brain is just looking for the dopamine reward response.
I know,right. Its like shes look n for my approval. She say,it will give her energy. Dumb. I told her eating right and working out will give her all the energy she needs.
Tell her you realize being a mom and staying in shape IS hard work, but being spun out on stimulants is not a solution, just another problem. because without them she will be more drained then ever
Thx for the good advice. Im trying to tell her and steer her right. But,she is b n stubborn. I know her hormones r all outta whack right now to. Hopefully,this will just pass over.
