Cornell Alisia2 months agoAbout two and a half months ago, I made the decision to quit drinking. I was a heavy beer drinker and noticed almost immediate weight loss, which motivated me to actively try to lose more. Since then, I’ve been working out and eating healthier, and I’ve lost about 30 lbs. The thing is, my wife has barely acknowledged my weight loss or the fact that I gave up alcohol, even though it wasn’t easy after years of heavy drinking. I’ve received compliments from friends and colleagues about my appearance, and those make me feel great and push me to keep going. I’m starting to think that maybe she’s feeling insecure about herself because she also has some weight to lose, and she’s mentioned that before. She suggested that we work out together, but our schedules don’t always match up. We have managed to go on a few hikes together, though. I feel a little silly asking for recognition, but it would be nice.145
