Listening To My Husband :)

  • Popular Post

So I have leaned that I need to start listening to my husband he seems to know my body better than I do! I went shopping for new clothes since summer is approaching and all my summer clothes from last year are way too big and as I am looking for stuff he brings me up 2 pairs of capris and said try these on, I look at them and they say size 12 and I tell him there is no way they are going to fit I am not that small yet, but to make him happy I go and try them on. As I am standing there loking at myself in the mirror in amazment they FIT!!!! The same thing happened at another store with a pair of shorts I swear they wont fit, but he insists they will and they do!! I still see myself as overweight even though I have lost 85 pounds but he sees me as I am now :) I am very lucky to have such a suportive husband who is behind me 100% and now has a new job as my personal shopping assistant :)

That's so great!!!! Congrats on your awesome weight loss!!!

This is awesome insight! Yes, do listen to your husband. It's natural to see yourself as the bigger you, but reality is knocking at your door! Let reality in and readjust your picture of yourself as a slimmer, yes smaller, you. CONGRATS! This is an awesome NSV! ;)

That's awesome! Congrats on the 85lbs lost!

That's awesome! The way it should be! Give him extra kisses for being a good man! ;)

Congrats on your success so far! And yes, it's a normal part of the process for us as our brains (and eyes, I swear!) adjust to the fact that we're smaller people. We don't see the differences the way the people around us do.
