Boy do I feel like crap now...
Just today I was sniffling on how Trent hasn't said too much about my weight loss.
I know he likes that fact I am loosing, but he hasn't said, oh you look nice, or even shown too much attention asking how much I have lost.
Well, I was so happy yesterday when the scale finally said 50 pounds.
Today when he came home he had me a vase of flowers, a balloon and a sweet card telling me how proud of me he is.
As happy as I am that he noticed, I also feel like crap for having such selfish thoughts.
I am so lucky to have such a wonderful man in my life.
Is it normal or am I selfish to WANT him to notice and brag on me? It seems like other men notice me, but he is the only one I care about.
Thanks yall, just wanted to brag on Trent and kick myself at the sametime.

You know men get confused. I think he didn't say anything because he has always thought you to be beautiful. And maybe he didn't want to seem like he was pressuring you to lose. Remember mens are different from woman. He is trying to be supportive the only way he knows how. Trent is a great guy. just like my Scott. And don't get down on yourself. You are not being selfish. You are a beautiful woman and like to hear it. Nothing wrong with that. Go out and buy Trent something for being such a great guy. And I love you and think you are great. Congratuations...Love you forever Jennifer
Honey you are normal...
I remember posting something very similar to this except my hubby was a total bone head and said "you would think after losing 50lbs I would be able to notice more"
What a bone head!!!????
Anyway, I have now lost 82 and he is starting to notice when he hugs me that he can get his arms around me and stuff like that. I remember Kathy telling me that when they see you everyday it is harder to notice. However, he will notice. Hang in there.
Sounds like you got a keeper!!!

Oh Deb ...
You DO have a keeper!!! How incredibly loving is he ... bringing you flowers and a card, just to show you how happy he is about your success! (Way to go, Whipped!)
After I had lost a HUNDRED pounds, and was still waiting on my hubby to say something resembling a compliment ... what I got was this: "Isn't that why you had the surgery? Of course you lost weight!"
It's completely normal to expect our significant others to be the ones to make the most noise about our transformations. Unfortunately, from my experience (and lots of others I've heard from), it doesn't happen that way.
Enjoy your wonderful relationship!!! It's only gonna get better.
