My husband is very supportive of it,but it was after he went to a seminar with me that he finally understood. I also had a crying spell and spilled my guts to him about how i felt about myself. He has always told me that my weight didnt bother him, because I gave him to wonderful kids and he knew that was the reason i was overweight. But deep down i know it bothers him. Just keep on him and try to get him to go to the doctor with you or a seminar....Good luck and dont let him talk you out of it. You are doing this for yourself not him....
