End of the month. I ended at 176, so more than I wanted to be but down 4 for the month so I'm pleased. To catch up to my plan, I need to loose 7 this month. No, that's not likely to happen (that's 2 pounds per week, which I achieved this past two weeks but I don't see myself maintaining that discipline.)
Dh is home again so I can't continue this pace of loss. Sigh.... Yesterday I was starving at 3:30 so asked him when he wanted to eat. He said he wanted to go to bed at 8:30 so he needed to eat a few hours before that. Note, he didn't answer my question, he gave me the latest time. Around 5 I said, I'm hungry. At 5:50 he was at a break point in the music and I said, I need to eat now and made him start cooking.
After dinner (past 7) I announced I was going for a walk because I still had to walk 5K more steps (that's just over 2 miles for me.) He made a positive sound to that statement. He then started a conversation on something else. After that was over, he was looking at his phone so I got up and got dressed to go out. When I said "Goodbye, I'll be back later" he got up and said, "I said I was going with you." This happens ALL the time. Sometimes we won't get out for over an hour after he first agrees to a walk and then he only runs an errand instead of going for a full walk of 2 miles or more.
I find it very frustrating because he argues that he does nothing to interfere with my weight loss.
I slept only 4.5 hours last night. I went to sleep immediately but woke up within 30 minutes due to dh's twitching. Between me being wired, me being too hot (the bedroom was 76 when I went to bed because the windows were shut and the radiators are still belching heat), and his restless legs, it was after 1 a.m. before I got to sleep again despite going to bed at 10:30. I was too tired to get up and do anything to try and calm my mind and I couldn't switch beds since the spare bed is under 1.5' of clothing piled all over it. That will be gone by tonight, I swear, although I'm not sure where I'll pile things. Tomorrow is too big a day for me to miss any more sleep. I woke again through the night but was able to get to sleep.
