Well, tomorrow is the day! I talked dh into starting SBD tomorrow. I made him promise that he would take it seriously & avoid bread at all costs. He said he would. Of course we only went another fifteen steps or so when he asked how long phase I lasted. So I went yesterday & stocked up on salad supplies & eggs & lean meats. I also got him to commit to walk a half hour every night. Y'all don't realize what an accomplishment that was. I know I can do this alone but it just helps so much knowing that he is going to be there with me.
We weighed this morning. He is 5'8" & weighs 266. He needs to lose around 120lbs. I am 5'11" & weigh 320 & have a large body frame. I need to lose about 135lbs. Both of dh's parents are diabetics. Both of his parents have heart problems. I don't want him to go through what they are going through. So far fil has had to have 4 or 5 different splints in his heart in the past two years. He is also so overweight that he can barely walk. I don't want that for dh.
So... wish us luck. I'll be posting a lot... I need the accountability. Especially if he gives up on me, as he has done in the past.
Welcome to the beach natenkayliesmom and hubby. My hubby is kind of doing the SBD with me and it makes things some much easier. Good Luck!!
