The Incredible Shrinking Couple

The marriage thing has really thrown my weight for a loop. I know it is conventional wisdom that after you get married you put on a bunch of weight because you have a lifetime commitment out of someone so they are stuck with you no matter what. Well for me I don't think that was it... It all started with an all inclusive honeymoon for 7 nights. Imagine.... all the booze and guacamole you can fit in your mouth for an entire week! That was the beginning.... let's just estimate 5-7 pounds. After that I'm pretty sure the Taco Bell, various other fried foods, and constant snacking added another handful of pounds. So I started Weight Watchers 7 weeks ago at my job and convinced my wonderful husband to follow the program with me. I had my weigh in today and so I want to brag on myself... I have lost 11.4 pounds! Glenn is down around 20 pounds which is out of control... I can't even begin to imagine how fat he must have been before we started. I kid I kid.... Anyways, I am super thrilled. Weight Watchers has been great for me to learn proper portion size and when I should stop eating. Glenn has been a little more resistant than I have towards the whole 'diet' thing. You know he has a misinformed view of dieting when his entire weight loss goal is to weigh the same amount as Conan O'Brien. I'm not even sure how he figured that out...
