lost a pound but gained a year
i can’t complain, losing a pound on your 35th bday is pretty nice even though i wasn’t using my own scale AND had homemade pizza and cherry pie the night before… i may need to invest in one of those nicer scales too - the kind that gives you a more specific number like 999.9… i had an ‘okay’ birthday, nothing great, nothing terrible - just okay… and my boyfriend, though he was trying to watch out for me, practically scolded me when i was going to eat some pie and ice cream on sat night… considering it was my SSHD, i was allowed plus damnit - it was my birthday and i had been looking forward to it… he just didn’t want to hear me complain about it later on (which i thought i only did here, not in person) so who can blame him…
its such the fine line when someone in a relationship is trying to lose weight… on one hand, you want the encouragement and support and on the other, you don’t want to be reprimanded like a 5-year old IF you’re making a bad choice… i know it was done out of love but considering the day i had, it was not welcomed in the slightest… i forgave him, obviously, but it just made me think about how i view all this… dieting has always been a very private thing for me so learning to share it with someone else, is hard… not living together makes it even more difficult since i can’t control the food as much in his house, as compared to mine… maybe once that changes, things will improve so we’ll see…
and yes, i still had the pie but only half - my friend ate the rest…
