When I set my mind to it, I can be great at this. I can lose my weight in just a matter of a few short months. However, when I'm not getting the support I need at home, that progress is much slower.
Let me start off by saying that I lost 3 lbs this week. I'm down 7.4 lbs in a week and a half. That's great. Not bad at all. My problem right now is with my husband. I don't feel like he fully supports me in what I'm doing. He encourages me to do what makes me happy, but he also seems indifferent at times. It's when I am trying to do my best that sometimes he tries to bring me down.
For example: the other day he asked me if I wanted a cupcake from the deli around the block. I told him no. He continued to tell me how good they looked and how badly he wanted one. I told him that it was okay if he went to get one, but that I wasn't going to have one. He followed that with, "well if you aren't going to get one, I"m not going to go there for just myself." I stood my ground and told him that I wasn't getting one.
He then waited a bit and then asked me again. I repeated what I told him before. He continued to tell me how he really wanted one but he wasn't going to walk there for just himself. Eventually I caved. The worst part is that I ate the whole thing (they were pretty big). Now, I can't blame him for ME eating the cupcake, however, I get highly annoyed when I am trying to lose weight and he is hounding me to eat something I dont want to eat or know isn't good for me/within my points.
I explained this to him yesterday. So now let's see where that goes.
It would be so much easier if he did this with me. While he says he is going to do it with me, I know he wont.
Anyway, I've started doing Wii workouts and I find that it's helping me get some sort of physical activity in my day. I really want to do MORE, like Zumba or the biggest loser workout DVDs I have, but I can't do anything too active until I have my 6 week check up. That's in 12 days! Still so far away.
For now I'm going to have to work on working on me and ignoring my husband ( LOL) and doing small workouts for the time being.
I'm looking forward to a healthier, prettier, more confident me :)
