Not really expected, but hoped for side effect! A SV, but not mine!

I've been very slowly losing weight. I don't calorie count, but I do weigh in every morning, and document what I eat every day, although the latter is as much for watching out for headache, allergy, or other health triggers, as it is for the weight loss.

I don't like talking about my actual weight loss, as I tend to sabotage myself when I do, so I'll just note here some minimal stats:

  • I was just over 180 lbs in August 2020
  • my goal is 120 lbs, (no date, just hoping for a gradual, sustainable loss)
  • In September I became overweight instead of obese, and although I danced at that line for a while, I'm unlikely to jump back over it unless I have a bad week, (instead of the occasional bad day)

And now, on to the unexpected but hoped for side effect!

My husband is significantly obese, diabetic, and has first stage kidney disease. However, other than watching the grams of sugar and percentage of salt in what he eats, he's not trying to lose weight.

But just from the result of my controlling what choices I make to eat, which affects what he then chooses to eat, HE has weighed in at his doctor with a ten pound loss from his last visit!
