We all know the deal; once you get comfortable in your relationship you and your man tend to gain a little ‘happy weight’. It’s all cute and snuggly at first; but what happens when he’s really in a slump and lacks the motivation to kick his butt into gear?

We all go through this love/hate relationship with eating right and exercising. I like to think we girls know how to motivate ourselves and each other to keep up the good work. The question is – how do you motivate your man to get back into shape?

Writer Lynn Harris knows this is no easy task. “Arguing, nagging, and giving ‘advice’ and trying to get him to “improve” (not to mention blaming him for making it hard for you) is probably backfiring, making him feel bad instead of motivating him to feel good.”

Giving him a guilt trip and forcing him to work out and eat right isn't the way to go. Check out the article for tips on how to motivate your man without pushing him too hard. And when in doubt, just remember there’s more of him to love!
