 She can lose a quick  200 or so lbs. Just lose the Idiot!!

Well I know what it is like to try loose weight. I use to have a body to die for but now I hate seeing myself in a swim suit. I gained most of this weight when I got pregnant with my little girl. I put on 72lbs when I was pregnant with her. I went from being 145 to 216. Then about two weeks later I went up to 236. I have tried and tried with many different weight loss programs. I lost only 7lbs. with one of them and kept it off. This past summer I lost 15lbs. without trying to do anything about it. I was just tired of pushing and pushing and never getting any results. I was starting to get back in the groove of loosing weight and now I have been shut down. I am so depressed now because my doctor recently diagnosed me with high blood pressure, anxiety problems, and is trying to find out if I have a thyroid disorder. She has completely said that I am not aloud to exercise or over exert myself at all. She says that I have to wait until she finishes finding what else might be wrong with me. This really agrivates me because I want to get back to what I was before I got pregnant or at least close to it and it hasn't worked yet. The only that is good about me being big though is that my husband has told me that he will love my no matter what I look like because he says that I will always be beautiful. This is a great thing to know and it would be a great thing for any woman should know.

I feel for Julie and I really do not see anything in Kelly so why does he have the right to complain and criticize her.  I happen to be in a relationship that is simular but I have only been dating him for a year and a half.  He feels that there is a perfect woman out there.  She must have the perfect hair, makeup and body exactly how he wants it.  Well I'm to the point now that no matter what I do he never notices, so I'm ready to say goodbye.  I really think he has deep dark secrets about his life and he takes it out on whom ever is closest.  I won't be close for much longer because at age 47 I feel I look pretty good and I know that I need to tone up in a few areas.  I have tried several diets, Jenny Craig, Nutrisystems, Weight Watchers and many more.  I feel the woman really has more on their plates with the home, kids, work, etc. so the stress alone never stops.  I have recently changed my job and have elimanated the stress but I really believe that I need to change my personal relationship.  That may save me completely.  Dr. Phil I have been totally thrilled with my new job that I can watch you Mondays and Fridays.  I thank you for all the people you ahve helped.  lb

Julie, I congratulate you on losing your weight since Kelly won't give you credit for what you have accomplished already.  But please, as I sat there watching the show has Kelly ever been shown or reminded of his flaws?  Is he so perfect, I don't think so, because I saw an average looking person, and if he truly did care for his wife he would not belittle her.  Dr. Phil should have given Kelly a mirror to look at himself, because he is no "greek god", the guy wears glasses, has grey hair and he did not look like he was in great shape either.    

   

Julie, do yourself a favor - lose your husband and don't worry about the other 25 pounds!

I totally agree. My first husband was always on my case about my weight. Especially when he saw I was trying to lose weight and then he would sabotage me by buying foods that were not on my diet plan. I got a D-I-V-O-R-C-E! and lost 225 lbs the first day and then after that the weight seemed to melt off. LOL

I am a 31 year old mother of two. I am  getting married on June 3rd to the most wonderful man in the world. He has told me time and time again that it is not whats on the outside, its the inside and how I treat him and make him feel that matters. I am certainly marrying the man of so many womens dreams LOL...but he is very special to me, and he is physcially attracted to me and makes me feel wonderful even thou I am 100 pounds over weight. I think that this relationship with him has got me off line with the reason i have to lose the weight, I have an incurable kidney disease. It would improve as with my blood pressure if I could lose the wieght but I have no ambition or will power when it comes to certains things. I have tried many diets and have given up on them. I have tried the buddy system and it doesnt work either. But in contrast to men and women and their bodies. All women are beautiful and men should not be so cosmetic as to wish we all looked like super models. When men pick on us about our weight and looks it is usually because they dont feel good about something with them. I think the outside is the shell and the inside is the only thing that matters. Dont ever do something to make someone else happy, make sure you think of number one first. You cant love anyone else if you cant love yourself first.
