I haven't lost any weight. I walk miles every day, literally. I do crunches, I keep my calories under 1600 per day, I keep my fat grams to under 17 per day. Why can I not lose any weight? I eat fresh fruit and vegetables. I don't eat red meat. (If it is anything, it is fish and chicken that I eat, or ground turkey as a sub for hamburger.)
In an effort to finally feel better about myself, in the absence of kind words from my husband about my appearance, I have taken myself to the salon where I had 7 inches cut off of my hair, (he didn't even notice that until I literally pointed it out to him.) I have been tanning so I look good in my Easter dress this year, and I have continued my New Year's resolution to wear make-up every day just for me.
I am still depressed about his infidelity, but also I still am trying to forgive him. I need to find work closer to home so we can work through our problems a little easier. Being 200 miles from home 5 days a week does not help any marriage in this shape. Maybe I should lose the weight on my shoulders of being the sole provider for the family by quitting nursing. I wish that I could go back and change my life to make it a happier one. I wish it didn't seem like I wasn't so repugnant to him. I wish I could be the me I was before.
