So proud of my man.

Since we met 7 years ago, it's been no secret that Al struggles with his weight. Unfortunately, in those 7 years, he's gained more than he's lost. And it's largely my fault. I have a metabolism that can afford the occasional chocolate bar, or bag of chips. Al has to work his ass off to have such luxuries...and I have often failed to appreciate that.

I know that he has often asked for my help in losing weight. It works for the first couple of days...but then when he asks to cheat(with food!!), I feel sooo guilty about denying him, that I cave. Not very supportive am I?

But now, he's taken a wonderful step. He's contacted LA weight loss to see if they can help. I can't begin to say how proud I am of him for taking this first, and very big, step. I only hope that A) We can figure out a way to afford it, and B) I can change my cooking habits well enough to adapt to his new routine, and diet.

I really hope this will help turn him around. I worry so much when he gets so depressed about his weight. While I understand how he feels, there's nothing I can do or say to help him out of those funks...and it breaks my heart.

To me he is now, and always will be beautiful. But I know that when he feels/sees it too...he'll glow.
