Hey all

just starting my journey.
having a hard time with curbing my appetite though
I believe i got so large because my husband likes bigger women and i wanted him to be happy with how i looked so i stopped caring about what i ate now i want to lose weight for myself and be healthy for myself.
Im liz
21

    Hey Liz. I'm glad you are taking your life seriously and trying to get healthy. I guarantee your husband would rather have you healthyand alive, then overweight and plagued with health problems!!

    As for curbing your appetite--unless you are very strict and have great willpower it will take some time. You might want to start logging what you eat and every week cut back until you get to the calorie limit that is doable.

    Drink lots of water! Keep a bottle or glass in your hand at all times. It really helps.
  • Thanks.
