Guest guest Posted May 11, 2006 Report Share Posted May 11, 2006 I'm a single girl in NYC. So when I date someone I really like, I dont want to be thinking about my fitness goals when we're at extravagant restaurants or on romantic weekend getaways- we're talking fantasy dates here. He's VERY supportive of my BFL challenge, and is even considering a membership to my gym, but we like wine at the top restaurants (I also try to order BFL style- just cuz I cant help it). Ive also read that dating and dieting are a recipe for an unpleasant first impression to make of who you are. This is my first challenge, and I'm getting my feet wet. So, I get needlessly cranky when I see that there isnt the 'right' food around, or i'm too dehydrated to give it my all when i work out- and then i painfully blame him for it. Those little annoyances (over a period of 3-4 days during the week) are dramatic between two people who are trying to put their best foot forward. I need to make this growth process work, alongside this man who has been my greatest support (at least vocally!). I'm not giving up! (thats a first) and I'm really learning something here, but it is very frustrating to give up seeing results. Id choose him over ripped abs anyday, but I dont think I need to choose. I think I need to learn how to balance this out. Some progress would be better than no progress. any words from ladies in the know? thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
