Day 1- woke up this morning feeling excited and sad (hurts to be rejected)

It’s Monday, October 28.
I Started the fast yesterday (6:30pm)
I’m feeling very excited about the fast.
To do this with a huge group is very motivating!
But I’m a little sad because my husband and i are having a little misunderstanding. And this is one of my WHY’s. We are all adults here and this is my personal journal. Two night this week, Friday and Saturday that i wanted some “alone time” with him and i was rejected. Both days he had heartburn and tummy issues. But I can’t help but feel very insecure. I’ve gained 30 lbs this last year and i feel like he’s not that attracted to me these days. He always assures me that he loves me. But THIS IS one of my WHY’s: bring sexy back and get my confidence back!

It’s normal to feel insecure in these situations! Everyone has good days and bad days! I know that must feel awful! The thing is, YOU will LOVE YOURSELF and feel confident as each day goes on because you will feel in control about your success on this fast! Keep it up, focus on yourself and bring that sexy back for yourself! :heart_eyes:

You probably feel like this when husband rejects you but don’t feel so bad because I e been through this as well few times! Or actually I can say Many times :tired_face: sadly ! But the truth it’s NOT about US it’s about them feeling insecure with themselves knowing that we’re loosing and shedding our own selfs that their wondering what about when she turns herself as a BUTTERFLY :butterfly: then they ask themselves what am I going to do with my beautiful wife lol ? Or even with themselves starting to feel insecure of themselves because their wives got their sexy back​:wink::laughing::crazy_face: well let me tell you, Just remember you are Already Beautiful inside and out​:smiling_face_with_three_hearts: Don’t be hard on yourself! YOU GOT THIS :partying_face:

Awwww, thank you!! For taking the time out to write that response for me.
We haven’t been talking that much for like 2 days. He probably thinks I’m being inconsiderate because he had heartburn or tummy ache. But he doesn’t understand how much that chips away from me everytime he rejects me. I feel so ugly. And this is one of my WHY’s for doing this fast with all of you!! Time to get myself back! My sexy back! And my confidence back!!!

I am right there with you!!! I have felt like this so much in my personal situation, esepcailly lately. I am so grateful you opened up and the wonderful responses. It pains me so much to be rejected. I love and am so proud of myself, but something still burns. Even if it isn’t about me. I want to feel CONFIDENT it isn’t about me. Not have to subconsciously remind myself how we all deal with stress and life differently. But, what Georgia is such a wonderful way to think about it… Makes me feel even MORE confident frankly. Means we are doing something right?! I’m getting SO SEXY that he is intimidated by how sexy I am! :ok_hand::smirk::green_heart: Gonna have to start making a few more confident moves :stuck_out_tongue_closed_eyes::stuck_out_tongue_winking_eye::ok_hand::rofl::rofl::purple_heart:

I’m so happy to hear you’re feeling confident! I’ll get back at that state of mind soon! I’m so motivated to finish this fast for that very reason!! Right now, I’m very insecure about being rejected. It makes me feel so ugly and unwanted. I will do everything i can to change this!
