My Wife is Getting Huge!

[rugbythug]

As anyone who reads my posts knows my HPTA is all sorts of Jacked up. It is so bad that I am having a hard time keeping the little man standing-If I can get him to stand at all. That being said I am still gaining size training DC style. Once my boys get going it will be just like a cycle. I think the stretching is making my quads more balanced for sure. I am also staying the same bodyfat-and that is a feat with the test of a 95 year old woman.

My wife on the other hand is blowing up. She trains balls on the floor every time. Her quads are getting a noticable sweep when she is just standing. I have also noticed improvements in her back. We are loving the training-although she is not overly fond of all the food.

I wish I could get my wife in the gym. She's 100lbs. always looks good and eats whatever she wants. She doesn't understand why I workout so much.......jeesh! Can't explain it to someone with a metabolism like that.

My girl of 3.5 years (wife to be) has been training with me as well and is seeing great strength and size increases. She has gotten many compliments on her delt/arm shape and size. Her results would be even better if she followed the diet strategy, but her protein intake is next to zero and she absolutely LOVES her carbs. I appreciate what a great workout partner she is so I try not to push the "lifestyle" thing on her or she'll likely quit training.

my wants nothing to do with the weights,,, she just does cardio all the time,,, you're a lucky guy to have a cool gal like that

You guys are right I am lucky. She bought into the DoggCrapp hook line and sinker.

That's awesome! She'll be ready come next year then for her show. What weight class would she most likely be in?

Best to be alone than have a girl that doesn't understand

not do down play anyone or take away from those of you with good partners (wife/girlfriend), but this stuff is really hard around my house. My wife suffers from Bulemia (eating disorder), she thinks she is fat at a whopping 108 lbs. wearing size 0 to 2 clothes. Needless to say, I try not to talk to her about what I'm doing with my body as far as fat loss or bulking, because it makes her even more fanatical about her looks and weight. She has been seeing a doctor for this and is doing better but it can never be cured. She is a very beautiful woman witha great body so I have a hard time understanding how she views herself.

You guys are lucky to have understanding women in your lives. I'm lucky to have this board, so I can talk about my fitness goals and progress.

That really sucks bro-To tell you the truth I struggled for months with an eating disorder as a teen. But I finally was able to make some major changes-Mentally-I looked the same. But I can understand the mentality for sure. Just be there for her. And tell her how beautiful she looks everyday. After a while she might start to believe you.

I have no Idea how the classes even break for women. But I would guess she will be very tight around 120. That might be a little to low in a year though-just depends on how much muscle she puts on. She doesn't know what she weighs right now-She doesn't want the scale #'s messing with her head.

GetnBigr, I am sorry to hear about your wife, this is a tough one to overcome.

I am on the otherside of this, I have been obese my whole life, no matter how much muscle mass I get or how much fat I lose, I still see a fat fuck when I look in the mirror, I don't think I will ever see it any different, I hope one day that I will see it the other way...

Thanks guys. She is doing a lot better now that she is on Lexapro. She had been making herself sick for so longer that her seratonin level were significantly impaired which is why the doc put her on lexapro. Seratonin affects attitude severely, causing mood swings like you can't imagine. Overall, she is doing much better but still struggling with the food side of things.

Bro I went through the same thing with my girl. It was a year and a half battle with her and she nearly lost her life over. Finally, she decided to get some help she started seeing a psych and a therapist. It took some time but now she is 100% better. You just have to be patient and stick it out with her.

If you want bro I am sure my girl would be more than happy to talk with yours about it. Drop me a pm if you want
