Realized that spending my entire weekend (Friday night through Sunday night) with my boyfriend throws me off my exercise and eating routine. He encourages me 100% in everything I do but being that he's super healthy and trying to GAIN weight, his eating habits and mine don't coincide. Also, when I'm ready to hop on the treadmill he's ready to go to sleep. I exercise every night for about an hour but when he's around I'd rather just hang out and cuddle since I don't see him often. How do I change this? We occasionally go hiking and take weekly salsa classes so we're not completely idle but the really focused "sweat my butt off" type of exercise doesn't happen.

On another note, had a great exercise yesterday. Only did two miles on the treadmill but I RAN at a very high level for the majority of the time. I was dripping sweat just how I like it. Can I pleassssse get rid of my stomach already? My arms have gotten a lot thinner, I can't wait for the rest of my body to follow! 8 more weeks to go!

Unfortunately that is why people (mostly women) tend to gain 20 lbs when they first get married. As women we tend to change our habits to fit in with our men. For the relationship not to sabotage your diet you may need to try to keep at least your way of eating while you are around him. You don't have to exercise hard every day of the week as long as you are active on weekends, but this is really an all or nothing diet. He can still eat what you eat, but add a side of carbs. Do you eat out or does one of you cook when you hang out? I'm sure you guys can work something out since he is encouraging you anyway. :)

Wondering if you do not see him often, if you can give yourself permission to be ok about not exercising as intensely as you do when he is not around? I am married and my husband does not exercise at all and eats whatever he wants. I have learned to accept (80% of the time) that A. I cannot get him to change and B. Only have power over my own behavior. So if I do not go to the gym on Sunday (my only day off) and make French toast instead of the habitual egg whites, it's my choice and it's okay. I get back on the bus the next day. That said, at the beginning of this journey, I told my husband that I could not cook for a while or go out to eat until I felt in control of my choices. It was like an alcoholic avoiding bars. Maybe you need some time to make slow adjustments that are sustainable? Okay, that's my two cents. What happens in 8 weeks?
