It sounds like you are making it work with your opposite schedules.<br /><br />I know what you mean about feeling a bit disconnected on some of the things that are important to you -- my husband and I had very different schedules -- until lately -- he is now coming to work for my business --so now we will be 24 - 7.<br /><br />Keep on posting!Jenn Barley | The KickStart Coachhttp://blog.jenniferbarley.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6802895654699762599.post-25837130789993208902010-04-28T20:02:13.618-04:002010-04-28T20:02:13.618-04:00My husband and I are pretty independent also.

It's so hard to want to make a decision for yourself when you know your spouse would never make that decision with you. I'm glad he is supportive to you, and mine is too, just in their own ways!Nikki Bondhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18306348448768628543noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6802895654699762599.post-77328404283350196292010-04-28T11:24:40.072-04:002010-04-28T11:24:40.072-04:00The support of fellow bloggers is SO important to ...The support of fellow bloggers is SO important to me and you totally have my support Tonyne!

Of course, you know how I feel about YOUR journey, it has inspired me to start and now to continue (even starting a new goal which I will reveal in a later blog). For me, I am like you, still excited I am accomplishing this, and yet my family and friends are getting tired of it. I posted my FB status the other about starting my second workout of the day and my husband commented "people are going to get sick of hearing about it, and you are starting to sound so pushy and smug." It hurt me. If he can misunderstand my joy and my intense desire to maybe inspire another just like you have done for me, then I really do need a safe place for people to listen understand and care, blogging gives me that.<br /><br />Also, for me, blogging gives me an audience. I am a writer and I crave the audience. Writing gives me joy, having someone read it makes me soar. Blogging gives me that.Tracyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14779640631273346103noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6802895654699762599.post-28327422721228141502010-04-28T10:13:08.724-04:002010-04-28T10:13:08.724-04:00I think the blogging community gives us that feeli...I think the blogging community gives us that feeling of knowing we are not alone. We can always find someone out there that feels the same way or does the same thing we do. It's what we all strive for I think, to know we're not freaky weird and others are doing it too.

Trust me, I would gladly weigh 200lbs for the rest of my life if it meant my husband could eat normally. My husband loves Onion Rings (the kind you find in the chip aisle), chocolate chip cookies and cheeseburgers...all of which are regularly in the house. I choose not to eat them. My husband likes to eat, he just can't do so easily. I understand what you are saying and while it does make it easier to eat healthy just for one, I would much rather be able to enjoy food with him.Tonynehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00333208447623212783noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6802895654699762599.post-86490714832746364762010-04-28T08:59:13.805-04:002010-04-28T08:59:13.805-04:00honestly, i'd find it so extremely hard to be ...honestly, i'd find it so extremely hard to be with a guy like that... i mean, my husband and i, our favorite past time is eating! BUT, for that reason, i envy you! it must be so easy to be on a diet because you don't have the added pressure of feeding someone else who likes to eat just as much as you... for example, last night my husband brought nachos to bed with him while we were watching the biggest loser... you know how tempting it was to eat with him!?!? sometimes, blessings truly come in the most unexpected packages... <br /><br />one thing the blogging community has given me? a sense that i'm not alone... at first, when i started my journey, i felt so lonely... but now i know there are other people out there feeling the exact same way as me!ThunderThighshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14989064568517436257noreply@blogger.com
