Here's a suggestion; I only weight myself once a month, and I do it AFTER my period is done.
This was difficult for me because I'm obsessive about things like that. But I controlled the impulse and waited....
and it was so much more rewarding! it was easier to step on the scale and see that I had lost 8-10 pounds at the end of the month than it was to look every week or two and see only a few pounds.
I didn't weigh myself for the month of December because I knew with the holidays I didn't eat well...so I weighed myself yesterday and Viola! I am down 6 pounds...I have no idea if I gained a pound or two last month, and I don't need to know!
I am trying to make this a positive experience in every way that I can, and this one works for me!
I am VERY proud of you...you are sticking to your plan and doing great! You ARE doing this!!!
Take Care,
2nd :)

"You must really work at churning a chaotic mind, learn to separate your thoughts from your true nature, and become a witness rather than a party to your destructive emotions".
Wow...this is for me...

CD: You are probably right in that I am perhaps wanting more than Chris can or will give...but that's also why I'm exploring other options as well. I've come to the conclusion that he is not going to be able to provide what I need on his own, no matter how hard he tries. What's more, I truly don't want him to do anything he's not comfortable with or that he'll have regrets about later; I know that that would destroy everything good about what we do have.
Single men...lol...I've had a few show interest, but they worry me a little...I'm afraid that at some point someone single would get tired of all the "cloak and dagger" stuff necessary for an affair, or that eventually they might want more than I'm able or willing to give. They also don't have as much to lose if things go bad, and that's scary! But it is a good thought, and one I'll think about some more...maybe it has possibilities!
I'm glad that you have such good friends to support you...it's so important! :)
We all should have and deserve to have people like that in our lives.
I am going to read your blog entries today, I haven't had a chance to with work this week! :)
Maya Angelou- How did she ever become so wise??? She's very inspiring...
A best seller? lol...not quite what I had in mind when I started this...I'm just glad that there are people out there with an interest that can give me support, ideas, and feedback. I also hope that there are some that can learn from my mistakes, and find something good to take away from this as well...

BlueMoon; There's not a short or easy answer to that one...but if you read back in my blog under "Options" and "The decision is made" you'll have a better idea of why.
And I don't take anything you say to me wrong...I'm always grateful for the feedback I get here. :)

I'm thinking a "girls lazy day" might be in order...we can have it on the same day "virtually" and write about what we didn't do... :)

I was where you are just a short time ago...what motivates each of us is different, and you just have to find what it is for you. I have lost 56 pounds to date, but have struggled the last month or so. That happens too, but you just have to forgive yourself and get back on track.
You can do this!
I still have about 35-40 more pounds and will keep working at it until it's gone...
I'll check back in with you and see how you're doing... :)

BlueMoon, I too had very strong feelings regarding infidelity prior to this point in my life! This was not an easy decision, or one that I'm proud of. Yes, it feels good, it feels great...I won't deny that, but it's also very painful...and that is the "other side" of infidelity...at least for me.

My husband has never raised a hand to me...that would take effort! lol...in all seriousness, I don't know how he would respond physically. I tend to think he would lean more towards going after the guy...but I truly couldn't say. In his rational mind he would know that I had made this decision, and that I was the one that chose to do this as much as the other person...but I guess it still doesn't answer the question...
It figures into the "risk" part of this; Chris and I both are very aware of the potential blow-up that could happen, but it's apparently not enough of a deterent to stop us.
