February 1, and I'm looking out over the valley at acres of space. The river broke up then piled up during the night. A couple more trees are gone, and the cats have lost their bridge to the other side.
I'm sitting here wondering if I'll brake that 195lb. barrier before spring.

Cohabitation is hell, sometimes. You don't do things you want when you want to because you have to consider someone else. Right now I want to go for a walk, but sit here writing and waiting for Gina to get up to see if she would like to go to. By the time she does get up, I'll be ready to do something else.

Changing habits are doubly hard. Just as you decide to do or not to do something, your partner intervenes with their habit of dealing with your habit.

This is why people often find new friends, when making a major changes in their life. It's just easier than changing what their friends expect of them.

It's why people join specialty groups, smoking and non-smoking groups, diet groups, biking groups, drinking groups, etc. etc.
All are mutual support for something they are doing or trying to do.
Your friends may make jokes about your diet, but not the folks in your diet group, or at the gym. Over time you drift from one to the other and may at some point notice that you haven't seen so-and-so in a while, then you go back to exercising as the thought drifts away.


Remember!
1 bite at a time, and 1 day at a time!

  1. A group may help, I certainly can be depended upon to make fun of you no matter what the reason! You have a life long habit of eating weirdly, it will take time to alter and be a struggle. I can remember you ordering double cheese and double sausage pizzas, this is never a good idea!
