I just wanted to have a little celebration of myself because I have been working very hard to lose weight this year and the scale hasn't really budged. I was definitely getting victories that I was dismissing like my old bras fitting again and looser clothes. I was so focused on the scale not moving that it felt like it was for nothing.
Yesterday I put on a rain jacket that had been quite tight when I bought it and it was suddenly loose. I measured a four inch difference. It just made me realise I had actually come a long way even though the scales hadn't moved. I'll probably tweak my diet slightly for more weight loss, but I just needed that wake-up call that it wasn't all for nothing.
I'm averaging 14k steps a day, eating healthy high protein meals, cutting out down on alcohol, and doing 8-10 hours of yoga a week. It's slow going, but progress is definitely happening.
The easiest way to void a situation like this is not to marry a misogynist. The need to control a women's dress comes entirely from misogyny. If anything ever happens to your daughter, is he going to stand beside her or say "I told you so."
Y T A for marrying someone who you had clear signs would do this to your child. But, now is the time to stand up for her. You'll have to consider what's more important, your marriage or your daughters development and happiness.
AITA for going "Against" my husband?
