Earlier, I had a bit of an angsty post, so I decided to counteract it by writing about someone I’m really grateful for, my wonderful husband Alex.
As most of you know, on August 6th he and I were married, after being together for a little over two years. Again, as most of you know, he has been my very best friend since I was 16 years old.
When I started this program, I was super moody- even though I would snap at him, he would remind me when to take my vitamins. He would wake up with me a little bit earlier than he would like so he could come home a little earlier from work just to make me dinner. He listens to me vent when I’m at my boiling point and he listens to me cry when I’m having a hard time.
More than anything he’s been so positive about it all. He’s been non-stop in my corner, truly a Mick to my Rocky. He has such undoubted faith in me and the things that I can accomplish, even when I can’t see a glimmer of it. He’s so patient and so loving and absolutely everything I need in this point in my life. I’m so lucky to have him.
I also wanted to mention how proud I am of the 6lbs that he’s lost in this process. He’s been going to the gym every morning before he goes to work and has completely remodeled his eating habits. He’s remaining positive for himself, even though I know he’s struggling with a lot of the same things that I’m struggling with.
I can only hope that I can support him as much as he’s supporting me, I’m banking on AT LEAST 60 years with him. No matter what I have to do.
