I weighed myself this morning... I know it was kinda soon but I'm glad I did! I'm actually down a lot from yesterday!! Woohoo!! I'm facing a bit of opposition, though... from my husband. Weird, I know. I think subconsciously he doesn't want me to be healthy and lose weight because that means he'll have to eat all the junk by himself. Yesterday, at Walmart, we walked past one of my favorite treats that was actually at a very low price and he pointed it out to me. I said "not getting it" or something like that and he accused me of being grouchy and that it's all this book I'm reading's fault. I said how am I grouchy?? And he said because I refuse to eat a lot of things now and I'm trying to push it on him. I AM refusing to eat a lot of things now but I'm NOT trying to push it on him! I asked him how I was doing this and he said by telling him about all the nasty stuff that's in food and trying to make him not like it. HE'S the one who's being grouchy because of this. I'll stop telling him about the eye-opening information that I'm reading and just stick to my plan myself. My psychological point of view: He's projecting his frustration on me. It's like those people who aren't doing the right thing in their lives and get angry with people who are out of their own guilt. That's exactly what he's doing. He knows he's super unhealthy (he won't even read his health review from his blood work) and doesn't actually want to have to do anything about it. And now that I am, misery won't have the company it's seeking. I refuse to give up what I'm working on. I actually have an ultimate goal that I'm not telling him about because of the obvious response of negativity I'll get... I'm just going to do it whether he likes it or not. It will (hopefully) benefit my family in more ways than one and will make me feel good about myself, too. So here's to not eating the cheap junk food I passed up last night and here's to my 1.4 lb. loss! Go me!!!
