A word about the BF
This post is one you don't have to comment on or anything...
SO to reiterate:
My Bf is 6', 150 lbs. Well he could be 152 or 153 by now. He smokes excessively (cigs), drinks a pot of coffee at work, eats nothing or maybe a few frozen burritos or doghnuts during the day, then has either a healthy dinner at night that he cooks or I cook, or has bacon or Chinese Food at night. His habits make it easy for him to maintain his skinny ass. I wish he was better about that stuff but it's not my place to pester him.
I used to weigh more than him and it drove me crazy--I
almost lost my mind and considered taking up smoking cigarettes (but never did. Thank Goddess!).
He used to make very
few and far-in-between comments about my excess bunny chub. Boy did I ream him for that!! For the most part, he assured me that his love for me is unchanged by the excess chubbiness I carry--unless I got obese, then there would be an issue.
During my weight loss he only made one comment, when I lost about 10 lbs. Saying I looked really good lately. Since then, he doesn't say anythig about my weight loss, in my opinion, to validate his expression of love for me at whatever size.
And I, in turn, kept my worries, hopes, and fears about weight loss restricted to this forum. He must think I'm really super secure, LOL! Since he never hears me gripe about my body. I heard it turns men off. So I save the gripes for this fantastic forum. I
know he doesn't want to hear it!
He still calls me by my nickname I gave myself for him: Chubby Bunny. I absolutely love the nickname and it doensn't bother me at all. But finally, one day last week, he called me that when we were hugging in bed (really--this is not a euphemism, we DO
hug in bed) and I said,
"Ha ha ha ha ha, I'm not
chubby anymore."
He said, "You
know you're not chubby"--tiredly, like he still doesn't want to feed my ego. I wiggled in happiness. He went on, "you're nice and skinny now."
There.
He said it. I am "skinny" now! It is nice, actually. After all those years. but I didn't like the "nice and" part. That's ok, though. I suppose a man has a right to enjoy his woman's new physique after she loses some "vanity pounds"--or more. Should we be mad at them? Nah!
How my BF's behavior has changed in correlation to my weight loss:
*note: he did all ths anyway, just not as often--except sqeezing the daylights out of me is a new thing.
He calls me sexy WAY more often, especially since I do little things like stretch in front of him, arms overhead, making sure my lower stomach shows--then he says, "Damn! you're sexy!".
He tells me he loves me more often--but that could be because now that I feel really satisfied with myself, I'm nicer to him. Either way, we say "I love you" several times a day, sometimes up to 15 xs!
He hugs me tighter and touches my newly flatter stomach and newly slimmer back. He used to avoid my belly sort of, and I didn't really like my bunny chub inspected, anyway
He damn near suffocates me with a bear grip before he falls asleep. I guess my lung capacity is really much better from all the running and my chest expands more when I inhale, so his vise-like grip is too much for me.
He stares at me and says, "you're so beautiful," or "you're so pretty," or whatever, more than usual, even though he did that when I was 155+ anyway. But it's more often. It can get unnerving when I feel ugly that day.
Taking all this with a grain of salt. Like I said, don't think much of this post. I'm not looking for comments, just reporting the facts of the situation. I
am pleased, though.
Oh this is what you should do with those truffles, FIRST grab ONE, and ONLY ONE don't be greedy!! Secondly, Carefully take knife and cut in half, last but not least MOST IMPORTANT...... eat slow and savor every little bit of saliva in your mouth, because that whole 2 seconds just cost you 50 calories.
