Have 50+ lbs to Lose? Add Me and We Can Do this Together!

My husband and I are trying to lose weight and be healthier together. We were just married in August. Unlike some brides, I didn't try to lose a couple sizes before our wedding. He fell in love with me at the size I am; however, the weight I lost years ago has been creeping back on. We want to be healthier together. My goal is to lose about 80 pounds overall. I personally felt the healthiest at about a size 14. I can't really see that goal yet. It's too far off. My short term goal is to be a sz. 22 again. I left that size behind last year.

I have an apple shaped body, if you're familiar with that term. I see all these new halter top looks for plus sized women and I don't have the belly for that. Plus sized fashion is finally moving forward and embracing curves. I want my curves back in the right proportions so I can rock those looks out!

I've always been confident about my body and my main goal for weight loss is not fashion. It'll just be satisfying to buy some of those cute styles. I want to feel healthy again. I want to have another child but I had gestational diabetes with my first and only child. It will most likely come back. The only way to stop diabetes from being a concern is to take weight off and keep it off.

It's hard, especially during high stress days, to make healthy choices and be "good." Looking to chat about tips, tricks, new healthified recipes that are great, etc. Looking to lend support toward your goals and receive feedback on mine.
