Without overloading with much more information, I have to get her trust back. I've lost 40 lbs since the BD, so there's one positive beginning. I'm trying to be good about getting the house cleaned up before she gets home from work (I'm a teacher and it's summer break). And somehow I have to DO enough other good things to get her to see that I finally get it. I'm sort of applying a bunch of 180 concepts, a little LRT, and trying to validate her complaints instead of argue or excuse my mistakes.


Me: 34 W:33

BD: 5/14
Still together(ish)
Not giving up: 7/14
D talk has slowed, a lot.
Gradually working on things together. Still separate bedrooms.
Slow and Steady wins the race.
