So the husband left to go back to Afghanistan today. That in itself is a huuuge bummer. But fortunately we were able to joke about it. I said "I'm glad you're leaving, maybe now I can start eating right". And he said "No kidding, I"m gonna have to start back at square one cuz I gained all my weight back". In that moment we both realized we are each other's crutches. I knew that I have used him for the longest time to put the blame on when it comes to our eating habits. But I didn't know he did the same with me lol. Even after 13 years of marriage you can still learn something new about each other. And let me tell you, we ate like crap the whole time he was home.
So I am taking this weekend to research some healthy crock pot recipes, purchase Zumba for the Wii, dig out my resistant band from wherever it may be hiding and try to get my head straight. It's going to take a few days just to get over him having to leave again, but I will NOT lose sight of my goal.
I also wanted to say thank you for all of your encouraging words. I appreciate the comments and feedback and it really has been so supportive. I know I"m terrible at writing back most days, but I wanted to let you know it means a lot to me.
