Unconditional love is never counter productive. Respect is never counter productive. I certainly won't ever put conditions on how much I love myself. Her husband doesn't have to be happy with her weight, but to reject her IS counterproductive to what he wants. She won't feel better about herself that way and she needs to feel better about herself in order to get to her goal.

Are you suggesting that if her husband never made an issue of her weight that she wouldn't be 180+ right now? Because I don't buy it.
There are many things in life that are hard to do. Saving money is hard. Going back to school for a graduate degree while working full-time is hard. Being a single parent is hard. And what all those have in common with losing weight is that a successful result is the product of many small decisions, most of which are under our control and responsibility. Frustrated's focus on her husband as the cause of her inability to realize her goals is off by exactly 180 degrees. And until she realizes this, her screen name will be a perfect fit...
