I have been seeing good results with calories counting, lower carb but not Keto. I got my goal jeans on. I am thrilled but they are too tight, so still going to lose the remaining 5lbs to get to my goal.
I have to wear a belt with my size 7's, so I am pretty excited.
Honestly with my husband on the road, it is easier to eat less and healthier. I miss him a lot though. He comes in tonight and will be leaving for the long haul next time so it will be 2-3 weeks between visits. That concerns me A LOT. He is used to going without "things" from being on the road forever, but I am newlywed and have needs. It bothers me, a lot. Oh well, he says the more he makes now the shorter he will have to be gone. We shall see. I also wonder on his success with the not smoking. I haven't asked because I don't want to know. I feel like he probably would disappoint me because when I have hope he dashes it.

Can't control his smoking, sadly. Hard thing to accept that when away, he will do his own thing. However, so can you, and it's great to hear that your goal jeans are on, and only about 5 pounds from fitting perfectly. That's big! So the next thing to figure out is how to eat like you are now when hubs is home. Sometimes it's as simple as just loading up your plate with only half of what he puts on his own.

@JustBananas Thank you for commenting. I am excited for the results. I have been doing that when he is home. Eating half and putting leftovers away quickly before I got to wanting to overeat.
He said last week he finished a pack and didn't buy more, but that was last week. And his reason for buckling down to quit (he said he wanted to blah blah but I doubt it honestly) but at the moment was the price of smokes in other states. I just have concerns about him in general. He told me again to throw away lighters that "he didn't need them" but I heard that before...

As a former smoker (who's wife did not smoke).......I tried to quit, mostly half-ass. When I finally decided to quit, I just did it while wearing one of those nicotine patches. I surprised myself that the quitting came so easily after smoking for 30+ years. Yes, my wife wanted me to quit. From experience I can say that being reminded of that fact does not work. When I decided I, and I alone, wanted to quit I found it incredibly easy to kick the habit. Too bad it took me so long. I also understand how lonely it can be when your hubby is on the road. For six years my wife and I were separated by 180 miles by our jobs. It's not easy, but it can be done. We are living proof of that. Hang in there!!!

hang in there WisteriaSky233 you are doing very well for a newlywed, I would like to be hopeful that you and your husband will honor your vows to each other, as for the smoking part I heard that it's a hard habit to break so just be patient with him, he will only try to stop smoking if that's what he wants to do. he has to want it for himself.

That is an unlovable flaw to me. He's on a timeline with me...

That’s exactly what I’m doing! Lower carb less than 100 a day and 1500 calories

He knows from counseling that he royally wrecked our marriage with his poor choice. So he is on a timeline to straighten out or I'll walk.

Key is to not threaten something you are not prepared to do. This is the same with all addicts— food, drugs, alcohol, smoking. Many are willing to die for their addiction. So don’t threaten, draw the red line in the sand fo yourself and then WALK if that’s what you need to do. Parents have to make the same decision regarding drug addicted young adults.

I'd suggest that creating ultimatums applies pressure to a relationship. That pressure creates stress, worry, and lots of unhappy feelings. Smoking is a way of managing those feelings. It may seem counter-intuitive, but the best way to help someone stop smoking is to not hold a sword over their head. It's hard, because creating ultimatums is a way for us to manage our own hard emotions; feeling unheard and ignored, or worried about someone else's health. We tend to damage our partners when we try to solve our own hard feelings.

He doesn't know of my timeline or how quickly it is approaching but he knows I am very disgusted by his habit and people condoning it can please refrain from commenting. It makes me angry at everyone taking the smoker's side.

Great progress (great advice from JB above, too.) IF I may ask a very personal question: you mentioned that you are a newlywed, and you are of the opinion that smoking is an "unlovable flaw" - was he a smoker when you married, or did the habit manifest post vows? Did he promise you he would stop once you were married? Why would you marry someone with a flaw you would consider a deal breaker? If these questions are too personal and/or you don't wish to answer, I understand. Just be completely and totally prepared to follow through on any ultimatum you give, or things will never change. If your serious, prepare yourself now.

He quit when we were first dating and in premarital counseling told the pastor and me that was in the past. Told me that he was honoring our relationship to give it up and to be healthier for us since he is WAY older. But I did let him know it was a deal breaker from the start of out relationship because of a past relationship. His previous job caused a relapse in March 2022. Again, I didn't tell him this ultimatum, I'm keeping that part under my hat. I am seeing how important he thinks out marriage is at this point. He has made some progress so he might pull through before I ship out. We shall see.

Would you rather live a life fitting un size 7s and running from hunger or enjoying meals with your husband and being able to trust your body? It takes a lot of guts to stop dieting but trust me our body have got us!
