Better days
I re-read my post from Tuesday and realized it came off as pretty negative. I guess I was still feeling dumb about the nutritional slips last week. The truth is that things have been going pretty well, all things considered.
It seems that 20 lbs was the magic number for other people to start noticing the weight loss. I got a ton of comments from people all of a sudden last week. That was a nice surprise.
The funny thing is that my wife has lost more than I have, it is VERY noticable, but people aren't making any comments to her. She is getting a bit frustrated thinking that I am lying or exagerating to her about the changes I see in her. I have tried to chalk it up to the fear that most people seem to have about mentioning a woman's weight in ANY context, even a complimentary one. Some people have said things to her like "did you get a haircut?" or "is that a new outfit?". I think this is their way of letting her know they see a difference, opening the door for her to talk about weight loss, if she wants to.
But what do I know...
