Blindsided

[chl0901]

Happy Monday, everyone! I finally finished reading DB (and didn't get caught by anyone!). I'm going to go ahead and re-list my 180s and GALs because my lists have grown a little bit since I finished the book.

GALs:
- Working out alone and also with friends
- Meeting friends for lunch more often
- Participating in more things like local 5ks (even with my slow times!)
- Plan a girls' night soon with a couple of friends (dinner/drinks or something) and try and do that maybe once a month

180s:
- Stop nagging
- Show more interest in his interests and hobbies
- Stop playing on my phone (FB, games, Pinterest, etc.) at night in bed when we are watching TV
- Work on improving my appearance (since H said he is no longer physically attracted to me during BD)
- Do not initiate TM or phone calls except for business
- Stop interrupting (bad habit of mine)
- Be even more optimistic and friendly
- Initiate intimacy more often (not necessarily right now, but when/if things start to improve)


We had a pretty nice weekend. Went to dinner with part of my family on Sat. night and Sunday went swimming and to eat at my IL's which was fun. The only part I messed up was interrupting H in the middle of a story he was telling yesterday and he said something like, "I can't even finish a d@mn sentence!" and I cringed because that's something I've been trying to work on lately (I have a bad habit of interrupting people to talk - I've always had this problem; it's like the words just pop out of my mouth!). Overall, the day was nice though.

I also did cheat and step on the scale today (I know it won't be completely accurate since I've been doing some weight training the past few weeks)and I'm down to 165. I was 191 this past Oct. and yo-yo'd with 15 lbs until BD so I am making progress even if it's slowly. I'm hoping to lose about 30 more lbs total, but I do feel good about actually getting this done.
